Specialist in non-surgical orthopedic care and sports medicine. Trained in Germany, Harvard-certified, and SPARRC-trained under the physician to India's Olympic and Cricket teams. Practising at A.P. Diagnostic, Mira Road.
Dr. Ibad R. Patel is a practising Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Consultant at A.P. Diagnostic & Health Care Centre, Mira Road, Mumbai. With over six years of specialist experience, his practice is founded on one core belief: most orthopedic conditions can and should be managed without surgery.
Through meticulous diagnosis, evidence-based medication, physiotherapy, and minimally invasive procedures, he consistently delivers outcomes that spare patients the risks, cost, and recovery time of the operating theatre.
