Dr. Sandeep Guleria — Transplant Specialist Surgeon in Delhi NCR

Dr. Sandeep Guleria is a Transplant Specialist Surgeon at Indraprastha Apollo Hospital in Delhi NCR, with more than 33 years of experience. His profile records the kidney transplant side of urology together with nephrology.

His list is transplantation. He performs kidney transplant surgery, living donor and deceased donor kidney transplant and ABO-incompatible kidney transplant, and also treats vesicoureteral reflux.

His qualifications include four separate Royal College fellowships. After MBBS, an MS and a DNB he took the FRCS of England, of Edinburgh and of Glasgow, and the FRCP of Edinburgh, and is a member of the National Academy of Medical Sciences. Holding both surgical and physician fellowships is unusual and sits with the two specialties recorded on his profile.

His record is built on programmes established rather than individual operations. At AIIMS he set up the paediatric transplant unit and established the laparoscopic donor nephrectomy programme. The Government of Nepal invited him to establish the renal transplant programme at Bir Hospital in Kathmandu, where he trained the surgical team and performed the first two successful renal transplants, and he continues to mentor that programme.

Besides Apollo Hospitals and Indraprastha Apollo Hospitals in Delhi he has been associated with AIIMS in the same city and with St. James's University Hospital in Leeds, U.K.
