Why Patients in Pune Choose Dr Shashank Adgudwar for Laparoscopic and Laser Surgery

When you are told you need surgery, one of the first questions is often: "Can this be done without a large cut?" For most of the conditions Dr Adgudwar treats, the answer is yes. His dual Fellowship in Minimal Access Surgery and GI HPB Surgery provide training specifically in performing complex abdominal procedures through small incisions. His 800+ major surgeries in two years and 200+ laser varicose vein treatments in the past year confirm a high-volume, active practice where these techniques are used daily.

His practice is notable for covering three areas that patients commonly need but often have to see different surgeons for: laparoscopic abdominal surgery (gallstones, hernias, anti-reflux), laser anorectal surgery (piles, fistula, fissure), and laser varicose vein treatment. Having all three under one surgeon simplifies care for patients. At Manipal Hospitals Baner (₹900), patients receive this breadth of minimally invasive expertise at an accessible consultation fee.
