Why an exclusive foot & ankle practice.
Most orthopaedic surgeons in India treat the entire skeleton. The foot and ankle — with 26 bones, 33 joints and over 100 ligaments per side — is a subspecialty in its own right. Dr. Chandan Narang built an exclusive foot & ankle practice so patients get the same depth of expertise available at leading international centres, delivered locally.
The mission is simple: avoid unnecessary surgery, deliver the right surgery expertly when needed, and give every patient a clear plan they understand.
Conservative first. Precise surgery when it's the right answer.
Diagnosis before treatment
A structured history, dedicated foot & ankle examination and appropriate imaging — before any injection or operation.
Conservative pathway trialled properly
Condition-specific physiotherapy, footwear/orthotic optimisation and targeted injection — a genuine trial, not generic advice.
Minimally invasive when possible
MIS bunion, ankle arthroscopy, InternalBrace™ ligament repair — smaller scars, faster recovery, better outcomes.
Reconstruction when necessary
Complex deformity correction, limb salvage and post-traumatic reconstruction with modern implant systems.
Transparent decision-making
Every patient leaves with a written summary and a clear next-step plan — surgical or not.
Long-term follow-up
Structured post-op review at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months and 12 months — outcomes tracked as a matter of routine.
