Dr. Ayyappan V Nair - shoulder surgeon, sports injury specialist Bangalore

I met with an accident on August 2023 resulting the wrist fracture. Got admitted to nearby hospital but next day decided to consult Dr Ayyappan and admitted to Manipal Hospital he has done the surgery with his great team of doctors. It was a very smooth process. Within next 3 months with his guidance I fully recovered by doing physiotherapy along with the implants inside my wrist. In next chapter after 1.5 years on January 2025 I consulted him and decided to done the surgery again for implant removal. He operated me with Dr. Bharath and team . This time got recovered within 1.5 month and have no clue of accident except the stich mark. Really for me this was a great experience with Dr. Ayyappan who really cares about the patient condition and very strict on the post operation physiotherapy, which really helped me to recover soon without any issue. I must say one thing out of my experience post operation physiotherapy is painfull compared to the surgery but proper physio gives the best result of the surgery.

My mother had been struggling with shoulder pain for over a year due to a rotator cuff tear. After doing some research, I decided to see Dr. Ayyappan V Nair, and I’m so glad I did. From the first consultation, he explained everything clearly, walked her through the MRI results, and made sure I understood my options. The surgery itself went smoothly, and Doctor checked my mother during recovery and made sure physical therapy plan was on track. She is now 1.5 month post-op and feeling so much better. His office staff were also fantastic—easy scheduling, very polite, and minimal wait times. I highly recommend Dr. Ayyappan V Nair to anyone dealing with shoulder issues. He’s skilled, caring, and truly listens to his patients.

Dr. Ayyappan is hands down one of the best orthopedic surgeons in Bangalore. I had a complete rotator cuff tear, and his approach was very reassuring. The surgery and post-op care were flawless. He worked closely with the physio team to make sure my recovery was on track. I’ve regained almost full range of motion now—highly recommend him!

A Great Surgeon with a Small Area to Improve The doctor performed surgery on my 8-year-old daughter, and I’m truly grateful for his excellent surgical skills. She has recovered very well, and the post-surgery care was handled with great attention. The only area where I felt a drawback was communication. As parents, when a young child undergoes surgery, we often feel overwhelmed and emotionally vulnerable. During consultation, I found the doctor’s communication a bit abrupt, which added to our anxiety. That said, he was extremely gentle and caring with my daughter, which we deeply appreciate. The supporting staff and assistants were communicative and helpful throughout, which made the overall experience smoother. If communication can be improved, I believe this doctor is truly a gem. His expertise as a surgeon is unquestionable—he’s among the best.

My teenage daughter had a sports injury involving her shoulder. Dr. Ayyappan made her feel safe and confident about the entire process. From MRI interpretation to recovery milestones, he kept us informed and involved. The way he balances professional expertise with empathy is rare.

I had a ligament tear in my shoulder and was anxious about surgery. Dr. Ayyappan took the time to discuss every option and encouraged me throughout. His post-op instructions were clear and effective. It's been 2 months and I feel stronger every day. He’s a doctor who truly listens.
