Introduction
Dr. Ajitabh Srivastava handles liver transplants and hepatopancreatobiliary (HPB) surgery. Patients come to him when they’re stuck with serious liver disease, pancreatic issues, or messy gallbladder problems. Some come after struggling with treatment for months at other places. Others show up when a transplant or major surgery becomes the only way forward.
About Dr. Ajitabh Srivastava
He’s been at several major hospitals in India, including Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, Apollo, Medanta, and Fortis. He’s helped launch liver transplant programs and build transplant units in both Delhi and Chennai. Working across these places has thrown every kind of case at him, from routine liver work to incredibly complicated transplants that go sideways.
He mostly deals with liver disease, bile duct trouble, pancreatic disorders, and transplant cases. But he believes patients and their families shouldn’t be left guessing about what’s happening. Before anything major goes down, he explains the condition in simple terms, goes over what your choices actually are, and walks you through recovery so nobody’s caught off guard.

Patient Experience & Approach
He listens when patients explain their symptoms and everything they’ve tried before. Plenty of families walk in anxious, especially once a transplant enters the picture. He keeps things simple, so they understand what’s ahead instead of sitting there confused and terrified.
He’s also serious about what happens after surgery, including follow-ups, diet control, and regular tests. In his view, recovery doesn’t end when you walk out, it goes on for weeks, sometimes months, and missing those check-ups lets problems quietly come back.
