Overview
Dr Ambareesh P is a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon in Kadugodi, Bengaluru, with over 20 years of clinical experience in orthopaedics, joint conditions, trauma, and sports medicine. He brings a depth of expertise that covers the full range of musculoskeletal concerns from fractures, arthritis, and knee pain to ligament injuries, spinal conditions, and sports-related orthopaedic problems and is particularly well regarded for his ability to reach the right diagnosis.
He completed his MBBS from Dr B. R. Ambedkar Medical College, Bangalore, and his MS in Orthopaedics from Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College (JNMCH), Aligarh Muslim University. He subsequently completed a Clinical Fellowship in Arthroscopy and Sports Medicine at Aware Global Hospital, Bangalore, in 2015, adding a specific sub-speciality capability in keyhole joint procedures and sports injury management to his broader orthopaedic practice.
Patients can consult him for a wide range of orthopaedic and musculoskeletal concerns, including knee or hip pain, back and shoulder problems, fractures, sports injuries, and ongoing joint stiffness. He is often consulted both by patients trying to understand whether surgery is actually needed and by those seeking a second opinion before moving ahead with an orthopaedic procedure. Patients at RxDx describe him as attentive, approachable, and genuinely involved in their recovery, and they appreciate the time he takes to listen carefully and explain treatment options clearly.
At RxDx Clinics, Kadugodi, Bengaluru, patients with bone, joint, or muscle concerns can access a senior orthopaedic surgeon whose clinical judgement is backed by two decades of practice, specialist fellowship training, and a strong academic research record, all within a neighbourhood clinic that puts the patient first.
