You see your own scan — pointed out in plain language, not medical jargon.
Every option on the table — surgery, physiotherapy, medication or simply waiting and watching.

Trusted across Jharkhand
Why families across Ranchi choose Dr. Kumar Vishal for bones, joints & fractures
Medically reviewed by Dr. Kumar Vishal MBBS · D.Ortho · DNB (Orthopaedics)
Last updated September 2026
Dr. Kumar Vishal is an orthopaedic and trauma surgeon in Ranchi, Jharkhand, practising at Medifirst Hospital, where he is Director. Choosing an orthopaedic surgeon is one of the most important health decisions a family makes — and for thousands across Jharkhand, that choice has been Dr. Vishal.
Experience you can see in the results
With more than 13 years of experience and 800+ successful surgeries, Dr. Vishal is widely regarded as one of the best orthopaedic surgeons in Ranchi for knee & hip replacement, arthroscopy, sports injuries, arthritis and complex trauma & fracture care. He is fellowship-trained in joint replacement and arthroscopy and has treated over 10,000 patients — including fractures other hospitals had turned away.
Honest advice before any surgery
What sets him apart is a philosophy of honest, unhurried care. Every patient is examined personally, given a clear explanation of their condition, and told plainly whether surgery is truly necessary — or whether physiotherapy, medication or rest would serve them better. No pressure, and no rushed decisions.
Modern care, without leaving Ranchi
At Medifirst Hospital, Bariatu, Dr. Vishal brings modern, minimally invasive techniques to Ranchi — so patients no longer need to travel to Delhi or Kolkata for quality orthopaedic treatment. From farmers and grandparents to young athletes, his patients share one thing: they arrived with pain that limited their lives, and left moving freely again.

Open thigh-bone fracture · limb saved
NNehal KhanGoogle review · Jul 2025★★★★★
"My thigh bone fractured and the bone had come out. Doctors in Daltonganj said it couldn't be saved. Dr. Vishal treated me at Medifirst — 3–4 surgeries — and today, 15 days after stitch removal, I am walking on my own leg. He is like a god to me."
"I had a severe sprain in my waist and couldn't move for a few days. I took treatment from Dr. Kumar Vishal, the Director of Medifirst Hospital. A very good experience — I suggest him for anything related to ortho and spine pain, or broken bones."
"My brother has sickle-cell anaemia and had severe pain in the hip joint. He was diagnosed with a sickle-cell crisis and the splenectomy was done at Medifirst Hospital, Ranchi. I'm satisfied with the treatment, and the hip replacement is planned next. The doctor cooperates with his maximum effort."
"My brother had a leg fracture. Another hospital kept him in ICU for a week and was running up unnecessary bills. Dr. Vishal read the reports, explained there was no abdomen or head injury, operated on the fracture — and 10 days later my brother is comfortable. His advice is genuine."
"Dr. Kumar Vishal is an exceptional orthopaedic surgeon. I suffered a hand fracture and he handled everything professionally, from the X-ray to the plastering. The recovery was surprisingly quick and smooth. I'm extremely grateful for his expertise and care."
"I had a fracture in my leg and was operated on by Vishal sir. A rod was applied, and I'm absolutely fine now — allowed to walk again. Thank you so much, sir. Best orthopaedic surgeon in Ranchi, Jharkhand."
"I had ongoing pain in my left hip joint, but the X-ray was normal so no one could find the cause. Dr. Vishal explained the difference between a nerve problem and a bone problem, and examined it properly. I'm much better now, and the problem is nearly gone."
"I consulted him about my 2-year-old's knock-knee. Dr. Vishal explained clearly that this is normal in children around 2–5 years and usually corrects with growth. He was patient, knowledgeable, and reassured us — it gave us real peace of mind. Highly recommended."
"My father developed severe swelling in his feet after an infection and viral fever. Dr. Vishal looked at it and calmly said it would heal. Those words gave us hope. After three months under his care the swelling is completely gone. We are truly grateful."
Not always. Many knee, back and joint problems improve with the right diagnosis, medication, injections or physiotherapy. Dr. Vishal recommends surgery only when it's genuinely the best option — and tells you honestly either way.
How soon can I walk after a fracture or joint replacement?
It depends on the injury, but most patients begin moving within a day or two of surgery and return to daily activity over the following weeks. Several trauma patients have walked on their own leg within about two weeks of stitch removal.
Do you handle emergency fractures and complex trauma?
Yes. Trauma and fracture surgery is Dr. Vishal's highest-volume work, including complex cases other hospitals have declined. For an emergency, call +91 92967 93921 right away.
My child's legs look bent (knock-knees / bow legs) — is it serious?
Often it's a normal part of growing between about 2 and 5 years and corrects on its own. Bring your child in and Dr. Vishal will tell you whether it needs anything more than watching — parents leave reassured.
Which clinic should I visit, and what does a consultation cost?
Medifirst Hospital (Bariatu) is best for surgery and full consultations; Indrapuri and Chatra run OPD clinics. Timings are listed above — please call or WhatsApp to confirm the day's schedule and current consultation fees.
