Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery is a principle - based, problem - solving surgical specialty, the most versatile and innovative of al. It originated in India almost 5000 years ago by the pioneering efforts of Maharishi Sushruta and its evolution is hinged on pushing the limits to restore form and function of various parts of the body to enhance Quality of Life.

At Amrita Hospital, Faridabad we envision a department with a difference, where unlike any other centre in the country, all the state of art services in the field of reconstructive plastic surgery are available under one umbrella.

Ours would be a multidisciplinary approach, to address the complex reconstructive challenges, aiming to achieve both aesthetic and functional restoration of the highest order.

Our efforts are directed towards translating Amma's vision of providing technology driven compassionate healthcare to all.
