Plastic Surgery, Reconstructive & Aesthetic Surgery
The Department of Plastic Surgery, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery at Amandeep Hospital was established by Dr. Ravi K. Mahajan in January 2002 after serving at PGIMS, Rohtak as Head of Plastic Surgery Department and as a Consultant at CMC & Hospital, Ludhiana for more than 10 years. In addition to providing General Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery Services, he pioneered the establishment of microvascular surgery services in this region, carrying out replantations and microvascular tissue transfer on a regular basis.
Later the department expanded with joining of plastic surgeons from different parts of the country. At present, there are six full time qualified plastic surgeons, one maxillofacial surgeon and three DNB senior residents working in the department. Smile Train Project for free treatment of cleft lip and palate patients was started in the year 2004, and more than 7000 surgeries have been done under this project. In house speech therapy and orthodontic services are also available to the smile train patients. Specialized Burn Unit was added to the department in the year 2006 for the treatment of acute burn patients.
DNB (Plastic Surgery) was started in the year 2009, and until now seven candidates have been taken up for the course. In addition, 22 plastic surgeons have worked as clinical assistants for a period of one year or more. They are now successfully practising in different parts of the country, whereas five of them were promoted as consultants in the department.
Separate cosmetic surgery and laser treatment wing of the department “RM Aesthetics” was started in the year 2011 in Amritsar for providing non-surgical as well as surgical treatment for cosmetic patients. A separate advanced foot care and wound care centre, feel foot, has been started recently with the involvement of podiatrist, orthotist and prosthetist. Diabetic foot clinic is being started as a specialized unit. Currently, the department handles all subspecialties of plastic surgery like trauma reconstruction, microvascular and super microsurgery, maxillofacial and cleft surgery, post-burn reconstruction, brachial plexus surgery, hand surgery and aesthetic surgery.
