Dr. Amarchand Shankarlal Bajaj
Laparoscopic, Bariatric & General Surgery
Dr. Amarchand Shankarlal Bajaj
Dr Amarchand S. Bajaj joined Sitaram Bhartia after spending many years at corporate hospitals in Delhi NCR.
Despite his qualifications and training in surgery (MBBS in 1997 and an M.S. (General Surgery) in 2003 both from the Govt. Medical College in Nagpur), he has no qualms about being honest and transparent if patients don’t require surgery. In an age where diagnoses for surgery are quick in coming, Dr Bajaj does a thorough clinical examination and asks many questions to understand the patient’s condition. He is confident that a majority of people with haemorrhoids, for example, can be treated conservatively or non-surgically, provided they approach a surgeon on time.
Dr Bajaj has the ability to put his patients at ease by taking the time to answer all their questions and also illustrate through hand drawn diagrams details about the condition and what should be expected before, during and after surgery.

Medicines cure diseases, but only doctors can cure patients. Dr. Bajaj is an absolutely brilliant doctor & fine gentleman. I went to him for gallstone surgery which I had developed during my pregnancy. He gave me enough time in OPD & understood the anxiety that I had to go for an operation having 4 month old breastfeeding infant. I got operated on 9th March, the surgery was smooth. And everytime he came to check me in hospital room post operation he listened to me with patience , the best part was that he was never in hurry & I received the best treatment from him. Thank you Doctor Bajaj. Keep shining.”

“
I had got my hernia surgery done in 2004 with some other doctor. Lately, I felt heaviness in my abdomen and I was greatly uncomfortable with it. I got a whole body checkup at Sitaram and found out that I had hernia again. I was referred to Dr Bajaj, who explained the whole surgery and process to us. This time the surgery was done laparoscopic ally and I feel much better now. He instilled confidence in me about the surgery and I got the hernia surgery on both sides as required.”

Gallbladder stone surgery

“
I'm writing this review on behalf of my mother-in-law who underwent a laparoscopic cholecystectomy done by Dr Bajaj a week ago. We discovered that she has gallbladder stones about a month ago and we specially, asked her to come to Delhi from Bhopal for the surgery. Since she is 76 years old with high BP, it was important for us that she get's the the best treatment. We were recommended Dr Bajaj by another doctor for the surgery and when we consulted him - all our worries and doubts evaporated in thin air. My mother-in-law was also much more confident about the surgery. Dr Bajaj explained us the whole procedure by making diagram which helped us understand everything better and evoked confidence. He didn't pressurize us about the surgery - he understood my mother-in-law's condition (she was suffering from constipation) and suggested that we wait 2 weeks before the surgery. After 2 weeks, we came in for the surgery and thankfully, everything went well. The very next day after the surgery, she was able to walk and resume her activities. We are very satisfied and we want to thank Dr Bajaj from the bottom of our heart.”

“
I had come for a checkup because I was experiencing pain in my abdomen. I was already aware that I had gallstones (some 2 years back) and came to the hospital about the same. I was referred Dr Bajaj for the treatment of gallstones. During my consultation, he inspired trust and faith in me. His friendly nature put me at ease and after the consultation, I was sure that I wanted him to be the surgeon. I scheduled the surgery within 3 days of meeting the doctor for the first time. I was explained about the surgery and post-recovery process and I went ahead for it, despite my initial fears. It's been just 5 days after the surgery and I feel great and am able to do all my household work like before.”

Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
★★★★★
“
Sitaram Bhartia is a very nice hospital for me. It's not to say a second home but actually, it's a second home for me in hospitality. This time I came for a gallbladder surgery under the supervision of Dr. Bajaj. He is very wise and advised me not just like a professional doctor but as a good human being. He cleared all my queries regarding the surgery very very patiently. He is a very nice doctor besides a wise human being. Within a short time, he made my surgery very easy. As I was declared unfit to join IOCL. Now by his great effort, I am able to join IOCL as research officer R&D Faridabad.”

Gall bladder removal surgery
★★★★★
“
I had slug in my gall bladder know for at least 2 years. On and off, I had sever pain and did temporary consultation and treatment. Never planned a surgery as I felt that its a complicated process even when once use laparoscopy. My family brought me to Sitaram (which is like a family hospital for us) three days after I had this terrible pain. I was admitted to the emergency. The doctors investigated the case and my family forgot to mention about my past history of gall bladder slug. I was not even in position to talk. When I was getting discharged, Dr. Bajaj told us that its his assumption that some small stone from the gall bladder might have slipped out and blocked the pancreatic duct. He said, he is making this assumption based on the blood test reports of slightly higher pancreatic amylase that might have now gone down as I was admitted three days post the first sign. At that moment, I knew that Dr Bajaj is great doctor and I can be assured to get the surgery done by him. Within a week of discharged, as recommended by him (only after checking all my past history) Dr. Bajaj agreed to do the surgery. Dr Bajaj is GREAT doctor and surgery. Post surgery, I am ready to join the work. I didn't had any post surgery complication. I really thank Dr. Bajaj for this support.”

Appendix surgery
★★★★★
“
I'm so glad that I got my appendix removal surgery from Dr Bajaj. From the first consultation itself, I felt that I was in safe hands. My appendix case was a complicated one - the appendix had swollen and there were many more complications along the way. With my age, I was really concerned about getting a surgery and the doctors around me didn't evoke trust. I came to Dr Bajaj for a second opinion and I felt that I found the right man for the surgery! He answered all my questions and erased any hesitation and doubts I had about the surgery. I was extremely confident about the surgery, even-though it was a complicated case. The surgery went smoothly and I'll be joining work soon.”

Inguinal Hernia Bilateral
★★★★★
“
In my previous consultations at other hospitals, I was worried about the treatment plan suggested to me by the doctors for my inguinal hernia. Some said I would need to be on at least 3 months of bed rest and some suggested I shift my home from the second floor to the ground floor because it would be more convenient after the surgery. As a working man, having such restrictions on my movement was a cause of concern for me. But a friend of mine suggested getting a consultation from Dr. Bajaj and that was actually a great decision! His treatment plan promised a safe surgery and a short recovery period. I was back on my feet in a week - I could climb the stairs also a few days after the surgery itself! I am glad I came to Sitaram Bhartia Hospital and I strongly recommend everyone to come to Dr. Bajaj for their consultation.”
