Why Vellore

Why Trivandrum families choose Vellore for post-op ortho rehab

Reason 1

Milestone-based progression (ROM, strength, gait, return-to-sport) with objective testing, not just hands-on treatment.

Reason 2

Residential 3–6 week blocks give the daily supervision the first post-op weeks actually need.

Reason 3

Direct co-ordination with your operating surgeon at CMC or your home-city hospital — reports and video updates weekly.

Common questions

Trivandrum → Vellore for post-op ortho rehab — quick answers

How soon after discharge can we travel from Trivandrum?

Most post-op ortho rehab patients travel within 1–3 weeks of acute-care discharge, once medically stable. We coordinate with your Trivandrum treating team on fitness-to-travel and arrange airport / station transfer.

Answered by Dr. Karolin Rockson PT

Do we need to book the full block up front?

No. Programmes are billed weekly. Most families commit to a 3-week block first, reassess, then extend based on response and milestones.

Answered by Dr. Karolin Rockson PT

Can one family member stay throughout?

Yes — accommodation options within 1.2 km of the clinic support single caregivers or full-family stays. We include caregiver training as part of the post-op ortho rehab programme.
