atching a loved one especially ones mother
suffer, is always traumatic for a young child.
Dr. C. S. Ramachandran, a renowned
General and Laparoscopic Surgeon, suffered a similar
hardship, but it only made him more determined towards
becoming a surgeon. Speaking about his motivation for
stepping into this profession, he says, “I watched my
mother undergo conservative treatment for TB of the hip
bone. It was the early 1960s, when immobilization was
the standard treatment. This was a painful event for us
family members watching my mother in pain. I was
watching doctors come and go, this triggered a passion
for the profession.”
Following his passion and his zeal helped him to get
admission into Maulana Azad Medical College for
MBBS. After this he moved on to do his Post Graduation
in General Surgery, “I stood first in Delhi University in
the final MBBS exam and stood first in PGIMER
Chandigarh, got many medals in conference and
meetings,” he says. Along the way, he had the
opportunity to visit Europe and the United States. This
kept him abreast of all the latest techniques in surgery
and updated his surgical skills.

concern for his patients. All his staff members are
dedicated to the patients’ comfort and prompt attention is
provided as well. He is an experienced General Surgeon

Providing Compassionate Care to All his Patients
“Every day, every patient, every surgery-big or small, is
a challenge,” the doctor believes. Developing a trusting
relationship with patients is a step-by-step process and a
challenge in itself; and this coupled with thorough
clinical knowledge and surgical exposure, is what helps
