Dr. Rohit Luthra, pioneer in robotic DAA hip replacement, trains 100+ surgeons through India’s first dedicated fellowship at Arcus Hospital, Pune.
Dr. Rohit Luthra
Pune-based orthopaedic surgeon Dr. Rohit Luthra, Founder and Chief Orthopaedic Surgeon at Arcus Hospital, is not only transforming joint replacement through robotic technology but also shaping the future of orthopaedic care in India. Recognized as a pioneer in Direct Anterior Approach (DAA) Hip Replacement, Dr. Luthra is the first surgeon in India to launch a dedicated Robotic DAA Hip Replacement Fellowship Program, setting new benchmarks in surgical education and patient outcomes.
Training Over 100 Orthopaedic Surgeons
In a short span of time, Dr. Rohit Luthra has established himself as one of the foremost trainers in robotic hip replacement, having successfully mentored over 100 orthopaedic surgeons from India and overseas through his dedicated fellowship program. The initiative provides surgeons with advanced expertise that blends the globally acclaimed, muscle-sparing Direct Anterior Approach (DAA) with state-of-the-art robotic precision.
Widely regarded as the gold standard in hip replacement, the DAA technique allows access to the hip joint without cutting major muscles, resulting in less pain, faster recovery, and improved mobility for patients. By further enhancing this method with robotic assistance, Dr. Luthra pioneered the Tru-Robotic™ DAA Hip Replacement, a breakthrough that delivers unmatched accuracy in implant placement and ensures long-term surgical success.
Building a Skilled Network of Robotic Surgeons
Understanding the need for structured training in India, Dr. Luthra established the nation’s first Robotic DAA Hip Replacement Fellowship at Arcus Hospital, Pune. The program includes hands-on workshops, cadaveric labs, and live surgical training, giving fellows direct exposure to advanced surgical protocols and patient-centered care.
So far, more than 100 surgeons have completed the fellowship. Many of them now perform robotic DAA hip replacements in their own practices, creating a growing network of highly skilled specialists. This not only improves patient outcomes nationwide but also helps reduce revision surgeries - an important step in lowering the healthcare and economic burden of hip disease in India.
A Vision Beyond Surgery
Dr. Luthra’s vision extends far beyond his own operating room. By empowering and mentoring surgeons across India, he is making robotic-assisted hip replacement more accessible to patients everywhere - not just in major cities. His fellowship bridges the gap between global best practices and India’s unique healthcare needs.
For patients, this means faster recovery, greater mobility, and an improved quality of life. For the medical community, it marks the beginning of a new era - one where India not only embraces robotic orthopaedics but also leads the way in innovation, education, and excellence.
