Welcome Message From Organising Chairman

Dear Orthopaedic Colleagues from the BOS & from across India,
On behalf of the Executive Committee of the Bombay Orthopaedic Society, it gives me great pleasure to WELCOME you to WIROC 2025, the NEVER BEFORE WIROC. Dr Parag Lad and Dr Chasanal Rathod have put together a thoughtfully curated program that offers a rich academic experience while also creating meaningful opportunities for interaction, inspiration and growth.

Over the next three days, you will engage with renowned faculty through cutting-edge lectures, focused symposia, debates, and case-based discussions. We have made a conscious effort to ensure that every session is relevant, evidence-based, and applicable to day-to-day clinical practice.

New rapid-learning modules such as the IPCA Master Classes, the Zydus Arthoplasty Boot camp and the IPCA Orthopaedic Boot Camp have been designed to deliver high-impact, practical knowledge and skill building. The Hands-on Saw Bone Shoulder Arthroplasty Workshop offers delegates an opportunity to gain confidence and practical insights that translate directly to clinical practice.

WIROC 2025 also hosts a Tech Corridor that will showcase the latest advancements in surgical technology though the Precision Robot Studio, the Solco Mixed Reality Immersion Zone, and the UNS Artificial Intelligence Lab giving delegates firsthand exposure to innovations shaping the future of orthopaedics.

Beyond academics, WIROC has always been a celebration of camaraderie- an opportunity to reconnect with colleagues and friends in a relaxed and festive environment. Our thoughtfully crafted social program includes a Drone and Fireworks Music Spectacular on Dec 26, where a fleet of illuminated drones will paint the night sky with dynamic formations, synchronized perfectly to a powerful musical score, followed by a dazzling fireworks display that adds brilliance and grandeur. On Dec 27, the legendary Shankar Mahadevan promises to leave our delegates spellbound with his soulful voice, dynamic stage presence, and iconic repertoire. Join us for a musical experience that celebrates the spirit of WIROC 2025.

The CORONA Khau Galli will bring the flavours, aromas, and energy of the iconic street foods of Mumbai to the patios of Westin. Delegates can savour spicy chaats, crisp dosas, mouth- watering pakoras, steaming hot momos, frankies and sandwiches. Refreshing coolers and golas will help douse the fires of this culinary feast.

I extend my warmest welcome to each of you and wish you an enriching, inspiring, and memorable WIROC 2025.

JAI HIND & LONG LIVE BOS

DR. GAUTAM ZAVERI
