Your treatment journey
Call, WhatsApp or use the form — same-week slots. Share your story and reports.
A thorough assessment and only the tests you genuinely need — no unnecessary investigations.
The least-invasive effective option, explained clearly with costs before you decide.
Laparoscopic technique for a faster recovery, with guided aftercare so you heal well and stay well.
Why laparoscopic & robot-assisted, wherever possible
The right approach depends on your specific case — Dr. Avinash Tank will recommend the least-invasive option that is safe and effective for you.
A traditional larger incision. Still sometimes necessary for very complex, recurrent or emergency cases where laparoscopic access isn't safe.
Small cuts, a camera and fine instruments — less pain, a shorter hospital stay and a faster return to normal life. Our default approach wherever clinically possible.
3D HD vision and wristed instruments for extra precision in complex or narrow-access surgery — available for suitable cases at Dwarika Hospital — Gastro, Bariatric & Laparoscopic Surgery Center.

Recovery, diet & exercise
Exact timelines depend on your specific procedure, health and how it's performed — laparoscopic techniques generally mean less pain and a faster return to normal life. Your surgeon will confirm what to expect for your case during consultation.
Most laparoscopic procedures are day-care or short-stay, with a gradual return to light activity within days rather than weeks.
A staged, doctor-guided diet plan supports healing — specific dietary advice is given after your procedure, tailored to what was done.
