Clear answers to your most common questions about hand surgery, microsurgery, and what to expect when consulting Dr. Yadav.
If you do not find the answer you are looking for, please contact us directly or call 8708128556.
A hand and microsurgeon is a specialist who has completed additional fellowship training — specifically an FNB (Fellowship of the National Board) in Hand & Microsurgery — after their core surgical degree. This is the highest level of subspecialty qualification available in this field in India.
While a general orthopaedic surgeon treats a broad range of musculoskeletal conditions, a hand and microsurgeon focuses exclusively on the hand, wrist, forearm, and elbow. The microsurgery component means Dr. Yadav is trained to work under a high-powered operating microscope on structures as small as one millimetre — including nerves, blood vessels, and tendons that require extreme precision.
Dr. Sunil Kumar Yadav is the only fellowship-trained hand and microsurgeon practising in Delhi NCR.
No referral is required. You are welcome to contact Dr. Yadav's clinic directly to schedule a consultation. Many patients come for a first opinion, a second opinion, or follow-up for an ongoing hand condition — all without a prior referral.

To make the most of your first consultation, please bring:
If any of these are not available, please come anyway — Dr. Yadav can conduct a thorough clinical assessment.
A standard first consultation typically takes 20–30 minutes, including detailed history, clinical examination, imaging review, discussion of diagnosis and management plan, and time for your questions. Follow-up consultations are generally 10–15 minutes.
Not necessarily. Many conditions can be effectively managed without surgery. Dr. Yadav follows an evidence-based approach where non-surgical options — splinting, physiotherapy, corticosteroid injections, PRP therapy, activity modification — are always considered first where appropriate.
Surgery will only be recommended when clinically indicated and when expected benefits clearly outweigh the risks.
Dr. Yadav will give you a personalised recovery timeline and work closely with your hand therapist to optimise rehabilitation.
During the operation you will feel no pain. Most hand surgeries use regional anaesthesia (arm block) — you remain awake while the arm is completely numb. After surgery, discomfort is managed with oral pain medication, elevation, ice packs, and protective splinting. Most patients find post-operative pain manageable and subsiding within the first few days.
Microsurgery refers to procedures performed under a high-powered operating microscope on structures as small as 0.5–1 mm — blood vessels, nerves, and lymphatic vessels. It requires specialised instruments, sutures thinner than a human hair, and years of dedicated training. It enables finger replantation, free tissue transfer, and complex nerve reconstruction.
Yes — in many cases, a severed finger can be reattached through replantation microsurgery. In an emergency:
Replantation is most successful within 6 hours — every minute counts.
Yes. Dr. Yadav treats patients of all ages including infants, children, and adolescents. Paediatric conditions include syndactyly (fused fingers), polydactyly (extra digits), trigger thumb, fractures, and tendon/nerve injuries. Every plan is tailored to the child's age and developmental stage.
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is a biologic treatment derived from your own blood, concentrated to deliver growth factors that stimulate tissue repair. The evidence is strongest for tennis elbow, chronic tendinopathy, shoulder impingement, and early osteoarthritis. Dr. Yadav has published research showing superior long-term outcomes with PRP vs. corticosteroids. He only recommends PRP when evidence supports its use for your specific condition.
