Dr. Aloy J Mukherjee — Senior Consultant in Delhi NCR

Dr. Aloy J Mukherjee is a Senior Consultant at Indraprastha Apollo Hospital in Delhi NCR, with more than 27 years of experience. He is listed in bariatric and metabolic surgery and in general surgery.

His weight loss procedures are sleeve gastrectomy, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and mini gastric bypass, offered as minimally invasive or robotic surgery. Metabolic surgery for type 2 diabetes and bariatric surgery for metabolic syndrome appear as separate entries, which reflects a real distinction in practice: the same operation is chosen for different reasons and judged against different outcomes. Alongside these he performs laparoscopic cholecystectomy, hernia repair, inguinal hernia surgery, appendectomy and thyroidectomy.

His qualifications are MBBS, MS and MNAMS as a Member of the National Academy of Medical Sciences, with three laparoscopic fellowships on top: FALS in advanced laparoscopic surgery, FMAS in minimal access surgery and FIAGES from the Indian Association of Gastrointestinal Endo-Surgeons. He has also trained in robotic surgical techniques. That is three separate certifications in keyhole surgery from three different bodies, which is what a surgeon accumulates when the approach itself, rather than one operation, is the specialty.

He practises at Indraprastha Apollo Hospital in Delhi.

Thyroidectomy is the entry that shows the general surgical half is still active. A bariatric practice does not require neck surgery, and a surgeon who still performs it has kept a broader operative range than the title alone suggests.
