Dr. Vrushali Raut (Physiotherapist)

So, I had a ligament tear in my left knee and I got operated in Dec 2017. Post one month, when I was asked to start my physiotherapy to regain the original strength, I searched for various doctors in Bangalore, had 2-3 visits at different physio clinics too, but some of them were too costly or couldn't deal with the ligament tear problem. In my hit and trial process of going to different doctors, one day, I consulted Dr. Vrushali and she easily grasped what I came for. As soon as she examined the condition of my leg, she told me to leave my entire progress on her and she assured me that I would start walking normally without limping in 5-6 weeks. By the way, when I came to her clinic for the first time, I used to walk with a stick always and limp because of the acute pain I had because of the surgery. However, in just one go, I was pretty satisfied with her diagnosis because she seemed quite experienced in such cases. Overall, I had some 11-12 sessions with her, starting from 2-3 sessions per week to gradually 1 per week/2 weeks as my rehab progressed. Talking about my progress in detail, I left my stick in the next 10 days from the start of rehab and my walk kept on getting better and within 1.5 months, I was able to walk normally without any limping or persistent pain. Even today, I am pretty much satisfied with the treatment I got because she herself planned the entire programme for me, be it the initial phase, the middle phase or the last least risk phase. The only problem you might find is getting an appointment with her because she has a lot of patients coming to her clinic, however, her experience is what accounts for her proper diagnosis *** ********* **********

I had visited Dr. Vrushali Raut for a recurring knee pain. I had initially visited an Orthopedic and a Physiotherapist in one of the bigger and reputed hospitals in Bangalore, who had diagnosed (post and XRay etc.) that my patella (knee cap) had gotten skewed and had slipped from its position, which resulted in abrasions in my cartilage. The ortho had said that "We will need to take an MRI to see the problem, and as the cartilage will not grow back by itself, we may have to operate and insert a fibrous cartilage in its place.. blah blah.., but if you wish, we can try with exercises for a month or so...". So the Physio there suggested some exercises and asked me to meet her directly after 6 weeks.

I was'nt satisfied.. (obviously...!!), and hence visited Dr. Vrushali Raut on a cousin's recommendation. My first visit to her clinic itself convinced me that I was in safe hands. She not only explained the actual issue to me, but also explained the reason behind the pain, logic behind those specific exercises and the correct way of doing them. She took pains to draw the exact position of the bone on my knee with a pen, and showed me how it was slipping every time I bent it. She also asked me to visit her every week in order to increase the intensity of the exercises, and within a month I was completely pain free. But she is still behind my back to continue exercising and strengthening my musles so that the issue does'nt resurface. :) Kudos!!

I was struggling with triceps tendonitis and tennis elbow issues for almost 4 months because of overuse injury (badminton and gym). I visited multiple physios and underwent IFT and Ultrasound sessions to no avail. There came a point where I was hardly able to lift a water bottle. I then reached out to Dr. Vrushali based on a friend's referral . She did the initial assessment and explained the issues in detail and course of treatment that we will take, including multiple muscle release and strengthening sessions. Though it took much longer to heal than expected due to some of the root causes of the pain being a chronic issue, I finally got rid of the pinching pain in my tendon and tennis elbow area and I am now happily able to lift weights in the gym again. Thanks to Dr. Vrushali, Dr. Ramya and the team to help me with the whole recovery process. I would definitely recommend Dr. Vrushali to anyone in Bangalore who needs to undergo PT. Especially for ppl with chronic issues, it worth the long trip even if the place is too far from your home.

My mri reports says that i have cervical slip disc(c6-c7). This itself was like a big trauma for me mentally as i m still young, 32 years. I have consulted with 2 ortho doctors and 3 physios in mumbai but still my problem was not reducing, i use to have severe stiffnes in neck, tingling in index finger this was affecting my daily life chorus.Then i came to know about Dr Vrushali, i travelled from mumbai to Bangalore and visited her, she diagnosed my condition and found the root causes of these, she found that i have been generated triggers point in my neck which was causing this(scm trigger points) and told me that not all mri are accurate. She started treatment with manual realease around my neck region and given me the appropriate exercises to treat the stiffness, within 3 days i started feeling better. She and her team treated me so well that i am fine now, i had not felt any stiffness from last 1.5 months now.I strongly recommend Dr Vrushali for her treatment for any musculoskeletal pain.

I consulted Dr.Vrushali 4 months ago about the continuous pain in my foot heels that started 1.5-2 years back. (Daily exercises were only giving temporary relief, along with using the best ortho sandals). I was fortunate to find about Dr. Vrushali thru online and made an appointment for consultation. She is able to quickly diagnose on my problem (by assessing my feet, posture in standing position from all directions) and then suggested that custom insoles with right adjustments would definitely help solve this problem. With slight scepticism and some optimism, I thought I will go ahead and try this. The custom fit sandals based on her prescription from Shapecrunch arrived in 2 weeks and I followed the initial suggestions; and I was so happy now and sharing this info after 4 months of using these. I am sure many may be reading great articles about heel pains but ignore consulting doctors/physiotherapists and end up buying too many expensive foot soles etc; instead if they approach right experts they can give the right recommendation. I highly recommend Dr. Vrushali and her services. Also as a user I personally vouch for the custom footer from Shapecrunch, in combination with doctor’s advice

*** ** *** ** *** **** *************** * **** ***** *********** *** **** ** **** **** ** ********** one of my family member was facing a problem in knee and leg for a long time .. we had been to many hospitals and big doctors, physios, home visitors **** ** *********** and none of them could pinpoint the exact muscle which needed to treated.. she picked up the root cause in first visit and now the problem is almost gone..

She is an very finely educated & intelligent doctor and has a very keen eye on detail / root cause for any problem u face. Her integrity and honesty can be felt in all interaction u will have with her.. i have seen almost every patient coming in going back satisfied with the treatment.. one more important point is that she will not spend time if she doesn't see improvement after few sittings.. and will recommend you for an x-ray / mri etc if required and get the right opinion before moving on with treatment.

I will definitely recommend her for any problem..

Do contact her before u visit via phone..

Dr Vrushali is my go to doctor for everything. I had initially visited her for a muscle loss in my knee, and while the bigger hospitals suggested surgery, Dr Vrushali calmly explained the anatomy of the issue in layman terms with the help of a pen and its markings on my knee, to show how the cap is moving incorrectly. A few basic strengthening exercises was enough to get me back up and running. She is mindblowing in her simplicity and humility. Since then i have taken several of my friends to her for myraid issues, and all of the have been treated with utmost care and professionalism. Dr Vrushali is truly a blessing to all of us in Bangalore.

My father has Spondylosis (neck,lower back, shoulders and what not) condition since more than 25 years and is on regular physiotherapy exercise routine in his hometown.He was visiting me last winter when suddenly he started to feel acute pain and numbness in his back.

That's when my father consulted Dr. Vrushali for his treatment. He was examined thoroughly for his pain points and he was given much better (compared to my hometown's physio) exercise routine.

What clicked him as a patient was

=> the language of communication

=> well explained exercise chart

=> easy to follow instructions for daily routine to avoid future pain/injuries

He followed his exercise routine diligently and in no time, his back pain was gone. Since then he has been continuing these exercises and refers to Dr.Vrushali's chart as a prime reference. His back pain has subsided substantially and all the credit goes to Dr.Vrushali.

I would like to personally thank her on my fathers behalf. :) :) :)

** ******** ** *** **** *************** ** ********** She came highly recommended from the HOD of physiotherapy of Bhatia hospital Bombay. From overall diagnosis, to understanding the patients fears, values and motivations dr Vrushali makes you feel at ease from the first visit itself. She is a thorough medical professional guiding you at each level. One remarkable thing about her, which I'm very inspired with myself, is how she stays updated with her field and nature of work. Always learning. Always growing as a medical professional.

I would highly reccomend dr Vrushali for any injury- sports or otherwise! From my father to mother and myself all of us have benefited immsensly from her work. Thank you Doc!

I went to Dr. Vrushali with a severe neck, shoulder and radiating pain in my arm. Any movement of my neck would generate terrible pain. For first two days she tried to locate the true cause of the pain, what was incredible is that while diagnosing she did everything possible to locate the origin of the pain, which includes even reading reference material. I was very impressed the way she took it personal and did everything to releive me of pain.

After locating the true cause she gave me all possible therapies and related recovery exercises.

I spent two weeks with her and I am very sure if it were to be some other doctor they would have recommended me to a surgeon. But she didn't give up and did everything possible to make me recover faster. She told me that I was one of her most complex patients. Which itself says how much she would have struggled to make things easier for me.

I would definitely recommend Dr. Vrushali to anyone who is suffering with any such kind of pain.
