Dr. Harshad Jawalkar
Senior Consultant Shoulder and Upper Limb Surgeon · AIG Hospitals, Hyderabad
Dr. Harshad Jawalkar chose to specialise in shoulder surgery because of the profound impact shoulder conditions have on everyday life — from reaching overhead and sleeping comfortably to participating in sports. He believes that shoulder care deserves the same level of subspecialty focus that many other joints have long received.
His approach is built on careful assessment, honest communication, and patient-centred decision-making. He takes time to explain each diagnosis in plain language and ensures that every patient understands their treatment options — surgical and non-surgical — before any decision is made.
