Gaurav Jain, Pediatric orthopedic surgeon

Gaurav Jain’s pediatric orthopedic work is built around the idea that children’s bones need both precision and patience—whether that means a Ponseti clubfoot pathway or a carefully staged scoliosis plan. At GDP Orthocare / GDP Care in Indore, he leads the clinic as Director and treats children with orthopedic problems from birth through adolescence. His training includes pediatric orthopedic surgery fellowship experience with Wadia Hospital, and he has 15+ years of experience. Families also rely on conservative-first decision-making for spine cases, with surgery reserved for a small, well-defined group.

Clinical focus and techniques

At GDP Orthocare / GDP Care, Gaurav Jain treats pediatric orthopedic conditions with a focus on growth-friendly planning and stepwise escalation. His clinic content and reviewed treatment guides cover both non-surgical pathways and targeted surgical techniques when needed.

• Clubfoot (CTEV) care using the Ponseti method — weekly plaster casts, a small tenotomy, and long-term bracing.
• Physeal bar / growth plate arrest evaluation and treatment planning — growth stops when a bony bridge forms across the growth plate.
• Tarsal coalition management — rigid flatfoot with repeated ankle sprains, often settling without surgery.
• Quadricepsplasty for stiff knee using Thompson’s & Judet’s technique — includes sequential gutter releases and intraoperative flexion testing to achieve 90°+.
• Scoliosis management — observation for mild curves, bracing for moderate curves (18–23 hours/day), and spinal fusion for severe curves (>45–50°).
• Ulnarization for radial club hand — includes soft tissue release, carpal positioning on the ulnar shaft, and temporary K-wire fixation.
• Muscle pedicle grafting in osteomyelitis — with MRI review used to decide the best approach; surgery is described as necessary for chronic osteomyelitis with dead bone.
