About Dr. Bhaskar Nandi
Dr. Bhaskar Nandi’s path started with an MBBS and MD in Medicine at Armed Forces Medical College, Pune, before he moved to AIIMS New Delhi for his DM in Gastroenterology, which is one of the toughest specialty programs to get into in the country. Unusually, most of his career was spent within the Armed Forces Medical Services rather than private hospitals. During his 25+ years there, he served as Professor & Head of Gastroenterology & Hepatology at Army Hospital (Research & Referral) in New Delhi and managed the Armed Forces Organ Donation, Retrieval & Transplantation Authority for several years.
Notably, he managed a large liver transplant program at Army R&R as a transplant hepatologist. Over his career, he has performed more than 50,000 therapeutic endoscopic procedures. He is also active nationally, serving on the Governing Council of the Indian Society of Gastroenterology and teaching as faculty for its flagship academic programs (GYM and YCP) to train DM and DNB gastroenterology residents.
