Please call ahead to confirm cashless eligibility for your specific policy.
05
What kind of orthopaedic surgeries do you perform?
Dr. Vishal Munde performs a wide range of orthopaedic procedures including total knee replacement, hip replacement, fracture fixation (plating, nailing), arthroscopy (keyhole) of knee and shoulder for ligament repair, spine procedures, and management of all types of trauma and sports injuries.
06
Do you offer dental implants?
Yes. Dr. Smita Munde provides single-tooth implants, multiple-tooth bridges supported by implants, and full-mouth rehabilitation. We use globally certified implant systems with proper bone evaluation, planning and follow-up.
07
Is the root canal treatment painful?
No. Modern root canal treatment at Maxcare is performed under local anaesthesia using rotary endodontic instruments. Most RCTs are completed in a single visit and are no more uncomfortable than getting a routine filling. Patients usually leave smiling.
08
Do you treat children?
Absolutely. Both Dr. Vishal (paediatric fractures, congenital deformities, growth-related issues) and Dr. Smita (paediatric dentistry, milk tooth issues, early orthodontic screening) treat children regularly. Our chair-side approach is patient and gentle.
09
Can I get an ambulance to pick me up?
Yes. We have a basic life support ambulance on call 24×7. Call +91 96237 61664 and we will dispatch immediately to your location anywhere in the Loni Kalbhor / Theur / Uruli Kanchan / Wagholi region.
10
What is the cost of a knee replacement / dental implant / root canal at Maxcare?
Pricing depends on the implant brand, complexity and any insurance you carry. We provide a written estimate upfront — there are no hidden charges added later. Call us at +91 96237 61664 for a transparent quote tailored to your case.
11
Do you offer second opinions?
Yes, and we genuinely encourage them. If another doctor has recommended surgery and you want an honest second opinion, bring your reports — many of our consultations end with the conclusion that you do not need surgery yet. We will tell you the truth, whichever direction it points.
12
How can I reach Maxcare from Pune city / Hadapsar / Hinjewadi?
From Pune city take the Pune–Solapur National Highway eastbound; we are roughly 25 km from Hadapsar, just past Theur, on the right side near SBI Bank Loni Kalbhor. From Hinjewadi / Pimpri-Chinchwad, take the ring road via Wagholi onto the Solapur Highway — about 45 minutes.
