📍 Sector 69, SAS Nagar (Mohali), Punjab · Serving Chandigarh Tri-City
Dr. Harjoban Singh — the only FIFA-approved orthopaedic surgeon in the Chandigarh Tricity — sees patients with this condition regularly. Most cases are treated without surgery first.
FIFA — the international football federation — runs the FIFA Medical Centre of Excellence programme to ensure consistent, evidence-based, world-class orthopaedic care for professional and amateur athletes globally.
Certification requires:
It is not a marketing badge. It is an annually re-audited operating standard.
The clinical decisions that matter for an elite footballer — precise alignment in ACL reconstruction, intact meniscal preservation, careful graft selection, evidence-based rehab milestones — are exactly the same decisions that determine the long-term outcome for any active patient.
The 55-year-old who wants to walk to the gurudwara, the 40-year-old club cricketer, the 30-year-old runner, and the 25-year-old footballer all benefit from the same protocols. The difference at FIFA centres: those protocols are not negotiable.
The same precision. The same protocols. The same zero-tolerance for complications.
Scotland-trained. Specialist fellowship in joint replacement and sports orthopaedics in Scotland, where surgical training emphasises evidence-based decision-making over surgeon preference.
FIFA Medical Centre training. Sports trauma, ACL reconstruction, meniscal preservation, return-to-play testing.
Robotic / navigated surgery. All joint replacements at Gini use GiniVision™ AR navigation for precise implant alignment within 1° of plan.
3000+ procedures performed. Across knee replacement, hip replacement, ACL reconstruction, meniscus repair, shoulder arthroscopy, and rotator cuff repair.
