40 years of AIIMS GI Surgery
The Department of GI Surgery at AIIMS, New Delhi was established four decades ago with a clear vision — world-class patient care, rigorous training, cutting-edge research, and service to society.
This is the place where surgeons are challenged, shaped, and transformed.
Where courage, humility, teamwork, discipline, and relentless pursuit of excellence become part of your DNA.
Where academics, surgical principles, and uncompromising patient care are woven into everyday life.
AIIMS is where the deep, unshakeable foundation of GI Surgery is laid — and on that foundation, surgeons build skyscrapers.
Sleepless nights, empty stomachs, 24×7 work culture, and lifelong friendships… this department gives you everything, and asks everything in return.
Proud to be part of this legacy.
It shaped my foundations, my thought process, and my unwavering commitment to excellence and patient care.
They say a surgeon’s life unfolds in three decades —
the first learning how to operate,
the second learning whom to operate,
and the third learning whom not to operate.
At AIIMS, all of that was compressed into just three years.
Grateful to return today and celebrate a legacy that continues to inspire, push boundaries, and serve society.
