Renowned Urologist and Kidney Transplant Surgeon Dr. Rajesh Ahlawat holds a distinguished position among India's medical professionals, having contributed significantly to leading institutions in North India.
With over 25 years of experience, he played a pivotal role in establishing highly successful Minimally Invasive Urology programs, including Robotic Surgery and Kidney Transplant services, achieving outcomes that rival the best in the world.
With an illustrious career spanning several prestigious institutions, Dr. Ahlawat has spearheaded four successful Urology and Renal Transplant programs across India, including Sanjay Gandhi Postgraduate Institute of Medical Sciences, Lucknow, and Medanta- the Medicity, Gurugram.
Recognized as a pioneer in minimally invasive techniques, Dr. Ahlawat has been invited as guest faculty for live demonstrations of laparoscopic and robotic surgeries worldwide, covering procedures such as Pyeloplasty, Partial Nephrectomy, and Kidney Transplantation.
Dr. Ahlawat's groundbreaking work includes the world's first Robotic Kidney Transplant (RKT) utilizing the regional Hypothermia technique, a collaborative effort with Prof. Mani Menon's team from Vattikuti Urology Institute (VUI) at Henry Ford Hospital, Detroit, USA.
His educational qualifications include MBBS from King George's Medical College, Lucknow University, 1976, MS (General Surgery) from King George's Medical College, Lucknow University, 1980, and MCh (Urology) from All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi (AIIMS), 1986.
He also received a Membership of the National Academy of Medical Sciences (MNAMS) in General Surgery from the DNB Board, New Delhi, in 1982.
His contributions have earned him accolades such as the President's Gold Medal by USI in 2016 and the title of Honorary Lecturer by University College London Hospitals (UCLH), UK in 1995.
Dr. Ahlawat's commitment to advancing medical practices extends to serving on the Board of Directors of the Endourology Society, as well as his efforts to promote robotic techniques globally.
He is an esteemed member of the Urological Society of India (USI), National Academy of Medical Sciences, American Urological Association (AUA), EndoUrology Society, and Society Internationale de Urology.
