Why Dr. Hemendra Agrawal
Why Baran patients choose Dr. Agrawal
Travelling for surgery is a real commitment. Here is what patients from Baran and across Hadoti, South-East Rajasthan get when they make that journey.
Internationally fellowship-trained
Fellowship training in joint replacement in Germany and Japan, shoulder and elbow surgery in Japan, and sports medicine and advanced arthroscopy in Switzerland. Very few orthopedic surgeons practising in Rajasthan carry this combination of international subspecialty training.
20,000+ surgeries performed
In joint replacement and arthroscopy, surgical volume is one of the strongest predictors of implant longevity and low complication rates. Two decades of high-volume operating means uncommon problems are familiar ones.
Both joint replacement and sports arthroscopy
Most surgeons subspecialise in one or the other. Dr. Agrawal operates across both, so a torn ACL in a 24-year-old athlete and a worn-out knee in a 70-year-old are each handled by a surgeon who performs that specific procedure regularly, not occasionally.
The surgeon you meet is the surgeon who operates
At every OPD you are examined by Dr. Agrawal personally, and he performs the surgery himself. There is no handover to a junior colleague between consultation and operation: the same surgeon sees your case from first assessment through to final follow-up.
Surgery only when it is genuinely needed
A significant share of OPD consultations end with a non-surgical plan, physiotherapy, injections, activity modification or simply monitoring. Second opinions on surgery advised elsewhere are welcomed, and you will be told plainly if an operation can wait or be avoided.
Insurance and scheme navigation handled
Cashless coordination and claims assistance across CGHS, ECHS, RGHS, Railway, Ayushman Bharat, Mukhyamantri Chiranjeevi and major private insurers, checked and explained at the OPD before you commit to anything.

Baran is about 320 km from Jaipur by road via Kota, roughly 5½ hours. Baran station is on the Kota–Bina line, and most patients change at Kota Junction, which has frequent direct trains to Jaipur. Reports are reviewed before you travel so the trip is made once.

What To Expect
Your consultation in Jaipur, step by step
A consultation is a proper clinical assessment, not a two-minute look at an X-ray. Here is exactly what happens.
History and clinical examination
A detailed discussion of how the problem started, what makes it worse, how it limits you day to day, followed by a hands-on examination of the joint, its stability, range of motion and alignment.
Review of your imaging
X-rays, MRI or CT films are reviewed with you on the spot. Bring older films too: comparing imaging over time often reveals how fast a problem is progressing, and that frequently changes the recommendation.
Diagnosis explained in plain language
You are told what is actually wrong, in words that make sense: what is damaged, why it hurts, and what will happen if it is left alone.
All options, including non-surgical ones
Medication, physiotherapy, injections, bracing and activity change are discussed before surgery is raised. If an operation is not needed yet, you will be told so.
If surgery is advised: the full picture
Which procedure, which implant and why, expected recovery timeline, realistic outcomes, risks, approximate cost, and how your insurance or government scheme applies.
A written plan to take home
You leave with a documented opinion and plan you can consider at home, discuss with family, or take for a further opinion elsewhere.

Why Baran patients travel to Jaipur
Baran is a farming district, known for garlic, coriander and soybean, and years of field work show up as knee arthritis and chronic back pain in older patients. In the Shahabad and Kishanganj tehsils, home to much of the Sahariya community, the distance to any specialist means fractures and joint problems are frequently left untreated for months before anyone seeks an opinion.

FAQ
Orthopedic care for Baran patients: common questions
Who is the best orthopedic doctor for patients from Baran?+
Dr. Hemendra Agrawal is among the most qualified orthopedic and joint replacement surgeons consulted by patients from Baran. He holds MBBS, MS (Orthopedics), DNB, MNAMS, trained at SMS Medical College Jaipur and Safdarjung Hospital New Delhi, and completed international fellowships in joint replacement (Germany and Japan), shoulder and elbow surgery (Japan) and sports medicine and advanced arthroscopy (Switzerland). He is Senior Orthopedic Consultant at Narayana Health, Jaipur and has performed over 20,000 surgeries in 15+ years. He consults and operates in Jaipur.
Does Dr. Hemendra Agrawal hold an OPD in Baran?+
No. Dr. Agrawal does not hold an OPD in Baran. Patients from Baran consult him in Jaipur at Narayana Hospital or Orthoklinik, 183/82, Rana Sanga Marg, Sector 18, Pratap Nagar, Jaipur, Rajasthan 302033, usually after sharing their reports first. His regular district OPDs are in Sri Ganganagar, Hanumangarh and Alwar.
Can I share my reports before travelling from Baran?+
Yes, and it is the recommended first step. Send your X-rays, MRI, previous prescriptions and a short description of the problem on WhatsApp to +91 92106 96045. You will be told whether an in-person consultation is needed and what to bring, so the trip from Baran is made only when it is worthwhile.
How far is Jaipur from Baran?+
Baran is about 320 km from Jaipur, approx. 5½ hours by road, via Tonk, Bundi and Kota. The rail head is Baran, with more Jaipur trains from Kota Junction. Baran is about 320 km from Jaipur by road via Kota, roughly 5½ hours. Baran station is on the Kota–Bina line, and most patients change at Kota Junction, which has frequent direct trains to Jaipur. Reports are reviewed before you travel so the trip is made once.
Will Dr. Agrawal perform the surgery himself?+
Yes. The surgeon who examines you in Jaipur is the surgeon who performs your operation. There is no handover to a junior colleague between consultation and surgery.
Kota is closer to Baran than Jaipur. When is it worth coming to Jaipur?+
Kota has good orthopedic care, and many Baran patients are rightly treated there. Coming to Jaipur makes sense for a second opinion before major surgery, or for specialised work such as shoulder replacement, complex arthroscopic reconstruction or a revision operation. A WhatsApp report review tells you which applies before you travel.
An elderly farmer in our family has knee pain but cannot leave the fields for long. How long does treatment take?+
Not every painful knee needs surgery. Early arthritis is usually managed with exercises, weight control and medicines, with no time away at all. If replacement is needed, the hospital stay is usually a few days, and walking with support starts within a day or two of surgery. The timing can be planned around sowing and harvest.
What should I bring when I travel from Baran?+
All X-rays, MRI or CT films and reports, including older ones, previous prescriptions and discharge summaries, a list of current medicines, photo ID, and your insurance, RGHS, CGHS, ECHS or Ayushman Bharat card. If surgery is likely to be discussed, bring a family member.
Can patients from Baran use insurance or government schemes?+
Yes. The team assists Baran patients with cashless coordination and claims across CGHS, ECHS, RGHS, Railway, Ayushman Bharat, Mukhyamantri Chiranjeevi and major private insurers. Share your card and referral on WhatsApp before you travel so eligibility can be checked in advance.
