After a few failed attempts by other physios, I read about Dr Roshan and met him first late Nov 2020. I'd been having a grinding pain on my right knee which worsened as I climbed down stairs, jumped or did squats. This had started to affect my daily badminton routine badly to the extent that I had to stop playing.
Dr Roshan heard me out fully and began to make his diagnosis and explained what he was doing at every stage. Hearing him felt reassuring as it helped me understand my injury better. He diagnosed the issue as patello femoral dysfunction, which is caused by incorrect rubbing of the knee cap on the knee bone. He explained to me the possible causes of the injury and how he plans to fix it, being honest and open.
He began his first session on the same day and fixed the rotation slightly to allow better movement. He was sure that within 4 sessions, I'd feel much better. And he was right, within the 4th session, he had already fixed the cause and had prescribed several strengthening exercises to help on recovery.
2 things that stood out apart from his friendly nature is that though he could have asked me to buy expensive kit from his clinic, he pointed me to what was going to help and asked me to buy it at a reasonable price from online. He also never rushed to show you immediate results but rather focussed on long term results.
Whithin 4 weeks, I was back to play! It is almost week 7 now and I'm 100% back in the game with no sign of any relapse. I hope I continue what he has recommended. Big thanks to Dr Roshan and his modest clinic! This place is a gem that more people need to know about. 5 stars all the way!
Visited For Back Pain
Happy with: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for moneyWait time
Context : I have been suffering from chronic back pain issues from last 10 + years. As a result i have frequently consulted most recommended allopaths in bangalore - Malleshwaram, BG road, Kalyannagar, Hebbal etc., tried homeopathy, visited few physiotherapists and also undergone Ayurveda treatments at various places like Jindal and in Kerala.
I knocked at the doors of Dr Roshan on 29th Dec with back pain with 2 MRI's taken over last 10 years and other reports. He spent the first half hour on his diagnosis and was able to rule out any issues with discs. While, every other doctor used to correlate the MRI's with my symptoms and assume it is due to slight disc bulge, Dr Roshan performed various tests, and made me do stretches and explain at every instance on what he was trying to check. I was impressed by his way of diagnosis and getting to the root cause - Pelvic tilt while the discs were pretty healthy with normal wear and tear.
I have taken about 15 sessions with doctor to overcome the pain for first few session, and later to start working on rehabilitation. Doc was very friendly, listened patiently and was able to customize exercises based on what was practical. He was upfront in setting the right expectations and work in that direction. It will never get to factor settings (in his words), but the exercises and his setting has helped me to manage pain and strengthen the areas. Its a journey in the right direction this time for me.
For me, this has been a very very helpful discovery to meet Dr Roshan. He was able to help me get to the root cause of the issue and work for a solution. While the sessions have helped, I continue to work on home exercises and doing monthly followups with him. His knowledge about musculoskeletal system of the human body is just amazing and his friendly nature and attitude to serve and solve patients' problems is commendable. He comes with his extensive experience abroad and India and his credentials and masters degree. He has a very unique way in which he treats patients which differentiates him -with NOT just the ultrasound, and the usual muscle stimulator to release pain.
I can vouch and recommend Dr Roshan for a phyiotherapist. ******** *** **** ****** ** ***** Am grateful to have known him and work with him.

Visited For Back Pain
Happy with: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for moneyWait time
After reading reviews for Dr Roshan on Practo, I visited him for back pain that I've had for the last 7-8 months. I could barely stand up without pain after prolonged sitting and my torso felt extremely stiff all the time. The pain made my job challenging and kept me out of the gym for quite a while.
After a recap of my back issue, Dr Roshan tried a few approaches to figure out which one helped ease my symptoms and explained each step in great detail so I could understand my body better. He diagnosed the issue as a Posterior Sacrum after 2-3 sessions and equipped me with a couple of exercises to help keep it in check. I had also been a bit apprehensive about the treatment duration and the cost as both tend to go up usually but Dr Roshan kept it crisp and productive.
I've had 4-5 sessions so far and my back feels good! I've finally started to have pain-free days and I can't thank Dr Roshan enough. Keeping the treatment aside, he is great to talk to and quite reassuring. I came out of his clinic feeling it wasn't the end of the world for me. I can't recommend him enough!
So , I visited him for my tendon pain around the wrist area and for my lower back pain (more of a nibble) . The treatment thus far for both of it has been absolutely wonderful. Even though the tendon pain around my wrist area would take longer to heal.
But the way I was told that I don’t need to come often and that I can do these mobilisation movements at home speaks a great desk about his work ethics.
I then took my wife too for her pain in the left leg and lower back area and the lower left heal area.
What left us in awe of the Dr. was how he told and showed me that the pain in the leg which could be causing pain in the lower back and around the neck area could largely be due of to the misalignment of the hip , ans I could clearly see that my wife’s one leg was significantly shorter than the other.
The ongoing treatment for that too has been very satisfactory.
The best part about the doctor is his humane approach and how interactive he’s during the entire treatment . He actually listens to you . Very humble and down to earth.
We’d highly recommend him

Dr Jacob Roshan Mathew is a perfectionist in his field. I am very much impressed with his behaviour as well as his knowledge. I keep on asking him so many questions regarding my health problems , he never gets irritated and answer my queries very patiently and makes me satisfied with his logical answers. I am really grateful to him.
Visited For Stroke Physiotherapy/Rehabilitation
Dr. Roshan, If I could give him 5000 stars , I would!!! I've been seeing Dr. Roshan daily for nearly 15 days, for post-stroke treatment as my left arm and leg had weakened due to the stroke. I was not able to walk properly or even stand for few minutes. I was also having tremendous back pain from past 5-6 years due to incorrect posture, but Dr. Roshan made the pain disappear by the 3rd session and stroke related complaints vanish after a week. As other reviewers have stated he goes out of his way to help and treat you. He works with you to address not only physio but your other health concerns, as far as possible, rather than just telling you what to do. He wants to make sure you and him are on the same page and comfortable. And he goes out of his way to care for his patients. Like, he also reviewed my work from home setup and pointed out the exact root cause which was contributing majorly in my back-pain problem. He treated and helped me in the mid-lockdown instead of just treating on the phone or on a video call. It might sound like breaking the law and lockdown rules, but, he didn't. Because the first 4-6 weeks are very crucial when you are recovering from a stroke and proper exercises help you get back to normalacy, without which it becomes more difficult in future. I am now in the 5th week after taking 3 weeks of rest and medication post stroke and I am already feeling normal since last week. Trust me, if you are suffering from a orthopaedic or a physio related problem, talk to Dr. Roshan once.
