What is Dr Shrishti Patil's area of practice?
Orthopaedics covers a wide range of conditions trauma, sports injuries, spine, fractures, paediatric conditions, deformity correction and joint replacement. Dr Shrishti's practice is focused entirely on arthroplasty: the surgical replacement of damaged or arthritic joints, particularly knee and hip replacement.

Dr Shrishti holds an MS in Orthopaedics from M. S. Ramaiah Medical College, Bengaluru. She completed a Fellowship in Robotic Arthroplasty and Advanced Technologies at Epworth Hospital, Melbourne, and holds MAKO robotic certification for total hip and knee replacement a structured training programme for robotic-assisted joint replacement surgery.
She has also completed observer ships with robotic joint replacement specialists in Florida, USA, and visited the Stryker MAKO Robotic Centre in West Palm Beach for hands-on training with the latest robotic system.
What is robotic joint replacement, and what is her role in it?
Robotic-assisted joint replacement uses a robotic system to help the surgeon plan and execute key steps of hip or knee replacement with greater precision and minimal human error. The surgeon remains fully in control throughout the procedure. The robotic system assists with pre-operative planning, bone preparation guidance, implant positioning, and intra-operative feedback.
Dr Shrishti brings robotic arthroplasty to her practice at SPARSH Hospital, Hennur making this technology available to patients in Bengaluru who are considering or have been advised knee or hip replacement.
What types of patients does she see?
Dr Shrishti consults patients with:
- Knee arthritis including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and post-traumatic arthritis.
- Hip arthritis including avascular necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head and hip deformity.
- Joint pain, stiffness, or deformity affecting daily activities or mobility.
- Patients who have been advised joint replacement and are seeking a second opinion or further information.
- Patients who want to understand whether robotic joint replacement is appropriate for their condition.
What is her approach to patient care?
Dr Shrishti's stated approach is patient-centred: every patient's joint condition is different, and treatment should be tailored accordingly. Not every patient with arthritis needs surgery immediately. Many patients can be managed effectively with non-surgical options physiotherapy, weight management and lifestyle modifications. Surgery is considered when pain, stiffness, deformity, or loss of function persists despite appropriate conservative care.
When joint replacement becomes necessary, the goal is clear: reduce pain, restore movement, improve independence, and help the patient return to daily life with greater confidence.
How can patients consult Dr Shrishti Patil?
Dr Shrishti Patil consults at SPARSH Hospital, Hennur Road, Bengaluru. For patients with knee pain, hip pain, joint stiffness, deformity, or those who have been advised joint replacement, a structured consultation can clarify diagnosis, the stage of joint damage, treatment options, and whether robotic joint replacement is appropriate.
