In this episode, you’ll hear how Dr. Jain leveraged digital tools, local customs, and evolving Indian government health policies to provide rapid, same-day care to underserved communities. Dr. Jain’s story is a masterclass in grassroots innovation, resilience, and social impact, from embracing kinematic joint replacements to scaling via telehealth and training systems.
