About Dr. Anil Mandhani
With over thirty-five years of surgical experience, Dr. Anil Mandhani basically handles the most complicated urological cases out there. He did his MCh in Urology at SGPGIMS Lucknow, where he eventually became a senior academic professor and personally trained over 100 urology residents. Then took his skills to the US, picking up a highly prestigious clinical fellowship in robotic uro-oncology right at the Brady Urology Center at Weill Cornell in New York.
He is heavily focused on robotic cancer surgery. Beyond oncology, he is a major force in renal transplants. Takes on the really tough, high-risk cases like ABO-incompatible (blood group mismatch) surgeries and complex revision transplants when earlier surgeries didn’t hold up. He doesn’t just use surgical tools; he actually invents them. Holds a patent and won an Innovation Award for designing a novel endopyelotomy device. Before taking the lead at Fortis, he was the Chairman of Urology at Medanta.

Patient Experience & Approach
Prostate cancer patients say Dr. Anil Mandhani explains the robotic nerve-sparing approach honestly. Kidney cancer families where partial nephrectomy was possible mentioned that he saved the healthy kidney tissue instead of defaulting to full removal, which meant no dialysis and normal kidney function afterward. His Brady fellowship training shows in how precisely robotic cases get planned and how carefully cancer margins get assessed before and during surgery.
