Patient Testimonials

• "We were told by other doctors that amputation was the only option for my son's bone cancer. Dr. Manish Pruthi not only saved his life but saved his leg too. Today my son walks to school like any other child. We are forever indebted to this wonderful surgeon." - S. Gupta
• "Dr. Pruthi is extremely professional and straightforward. He explained the complexity of my hip tumour surgery very clearly. The recovery was tough, but his team was there at every step. He is undoubtedly the best bone cancer doctor in Mumbai." - A. Khan
• "I travelled from Kenya for my treatment. Dr. Pruthi's expertise in limb salvage is world-class. He gave me confidence during the darkest time of my life. The surgery was successful, and the cost was managed well." - David O.

Patient-Centred Care
Dr. Pruthi believes that every patient deserves to maintain their quality of life. His primary philosophy is "Limb Salvage over Amputation" whenever oncologically safe. He spends significant time counselling patients and families to help them understand the disease and the rehabilitation process required for a successful outcome.

Technology & Innovation
He integrates cutting-edge technology such as computer navigation and 3D-printed custom jigs for precise tumour removal. Dr. Pruthi is also an advocate for biological reconstruction methods, such as Extra-corporeal Irradiation (ECI), which allows the patient's own bone to be treated and re-implanted, offering a cost-effective and durable solution.

The costs below are estimates and may vary based on the severity of the tumour, the type of implant (prosthesis) used, and the patient's medical condition.
