Anup Pradhan, MD · North Dallas

I started practicing in Dallas in 2012 after orthopedic surgery training at Vanderbilt and a fellowship at Duke. For six years I served as Chair of Orthopedics at Medical City Dallas. I've operated in academic hospitals, large multispecialty groups, and now a small independent practice — and I'm here for a reason.

The reason is simple: orthopedic decisions are personal. They sit at the intersection of evidence, biology, and what you want your life to look like next year. That conversation deserves a surgeon who knows you — not a workflow that processes you.

My clinical interest is the boundary between joint preservation and joint replacement: cartilage restoration in patients who've been told they're "too far gone," athletes recovering from ACL or rotator cuff injuries, second opinions before knee and hip replacement. In every case, there's usually more than one good path forward — and my job is to help you find yours.

You always have options. My job is to help you find yours — and to deliver world-class outcomes when surgery is the answer.
