A Decade of Surgical Precision

I am a Surgical Gastroenterologist with over ten years of dedicated experience in treating diseases of the liver, bile duct, pancreas, stomach, and intestines using cutting-edge minimally invasive techniques.

My practice encompasses advanced laparoscopic surgery, robotic-assisted surgery, and the surgical management of complex gastrointestinal cancers. I believe that every patient deserves access to the safest, least invasive path to recovery.

I am actively practising at two of Chennai's most reputed institutions — P&G Hospital in Vadapalani and Apollo Hospital on Greams Road — bringing the same standard of excellence to both locations.
