GI & Laparoscopic Surgeon near Sarojini Nagar, South Delhi | Hernia, Gallbladder, Piles & More
Sarojini Nagar is known across Delhi for its market, but it is also home to thousands of families in Sarojini Nagar, Netaji Nagar, Kidwai Nagar and the nearby government colonies. Many residents work long shifts and eat on the move, and problems such as acidity, gas, piles and hernia often get ignored until they start affecting work.
THE CLINICS has no branch in Sarojini Nagar. Our two branches are about 5–6 km south, in New Delhi 110016: THE CLINICS Green Park (outpatient) at G-32, Green Park Main Market Road, and THE CLINICS MISC, H2, Hauz Khas, opposite Neeli Masjid, where surgery and admission take place. Dr Saurabh Bansal, GI & Laparoscopic Surgeon (DMC Reg. No. 37887), consults at both.

Acidity treatment for patients from Sarojini Nagar
Acidity, heartburn and a sour taste in the mouth are very common. For most people, it settles with simple changes: smaller meals, an early dinner, less tea, coffee, fried and spicy food, stopping smoking, losing extra weight and raising the head end of the bed. Short courses of antacids or PPI tablets can help.
See a doctor if acidity:
Comes back again and again, or you need tablets every day
Wakes you at night, or causes a cough, hoarse voice or throat irritation
Comes with difficulty in swallowing, vomiting, black stools or weight loss
Started after age 45, or there is a family history of stomach problems
For these patients, Dr Saurabh Bansal may advise an upper GI endoscopy, and sometimes pH or manometry tests. If there is a hiatus hernia or long-standing GERD that does not respond to medicines, laparoscopic fundoplication (Nissen or Toupet) may be discussed. Dr Bansal presented a modified laparoscopic Toupet fundoplication technique at ELSA 2025, Singapore. See our GERD and acid reflux page and hiatus hernia surgery page.
Patients from Sarojini Nagar and Kidwai Nagar often ask whether they can be seen in the evening after work. Dr Bansal's Green Park OPD runs in the evening (Mon–Sat, 6–8 pm), which suits many working patients. Call first, as timings can change.
Colorectal surgery for patients from Sarojini Nagar
Many people are shy to talk about problems "down there", and patients from Sarojini Nagar are no different. A colorectal consultation is private and respectful. The doctor asks about your symptoms, examines you gently, and explains what he finds before suggesting any test.
What colorectal surgery at THE CLINICS covers:
Anal conditions: piles, fissure, fistula, abscess and pilonidal sinus, with laser and other methods (laser surgery)
Bowel tests: colonoscopy for bleeding, anaemia or a change in bowel habit
Bowel surgery: laparoscopic removal of part of the colon or rectum for polyps that cannot be removed by colonoscopy, diverticular disease or cancer (colorectal cancer surgery)
Rectal prolapse and other pelvic floor problems
Dr Saurabh Bansal trained in colorectal surgery under Prof. William Chen in Taiwan. For cancer, decisions about chemotherapy or radiotherapy are made with the oncology team, and you are guided at each step. See our colorectal surgery page.
Laser treatment: piles, fissure, fistula and pilonidal sinus
People from Sarojini Nagar often ask us, "Can my problem be done by laser?" The honest answer is that it depends on what the examination shows. Laser is a tool, and the surgeon picks it when it suits your condition.
How laser treatment usually goes at THE CLINICS MISC, Hauz Khas:
Before: examination (and sometimes a proctoscopy, MRI or colonoscopy), blood tests and a check by the anaesthetist.
Procedure: done in the operation theatre, usually under spinal anaesthesia, often in less than an hour.
After: many patients go home the same day or the next morning, with stool softeners, sitz baths and pain medicines.
Return to work: desk work is often possible within a few days; heavier work may need longer.
Laser can be used for piles, chronic fissure, anal fistula and pilonidal sinus. Dr Saurabh Bansal and Dr Aayush Nagpal (coloproctologist, DMC Reg. No. 103369) treat these conditions at Hauz Khas. See our laser surgery page.
When to see a gastrointestinal surgeon from Sarojini Nagar
Stomach and bowel problems are often treated with tablets for months before anyone looks at the cause. A GI surgeon looks at the whole picture: your symptoms, an examination and the right tests, such as an ultrasound, an endoscopy, a colonoscopy or a CT scan.
Common GI conditions treated at THE CLINICS for patients from Sarojini Nagar include:
Gallbladder stones and gallbladder infection (gallbladder stone surgery)
Hiatus hernia and GERD (hiatus hernia surgery)
Hernias of the abdominal wall (hernia surgery)
Colon and rectal conditions, including polyps and colorectal cancer surgery (colorectal cancer surgery)
Piles, fissure, fistula and pilonidal sinus (laser surgery)
Dr Saurabh Bansal (MBBS, DNB General Surgery, FNB Minimal Access Surgery) has previously worked as a consultant at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital and completed a colorectal surgery fellowship in Taiwan. He explains each option in plain language, including the option of waiting and watching when that is safe. Read more on our GI surgery page.
Laparoscopic surgeon for patients from Sarojini Nagar
Laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery is done through a few small cuts, usually 5–10 mm, using a camera and fine instruments. Compared with open surgery, it usually means less pain after the operation, a shorter hospital stay and a quicker return to normal activity, although every patient heals at their own pace.
At THE CLINICS MISC, Dr Saurabh Bansal performs keyhole surgery for:
Gallbladder stones: laparoscopic cholecystectomy, often with a stay of one night. Read more on our gallbladder stone surgery page.
Hernia: inguinal (groin), umbilical, ventral and incisional hernia repair with mesh, using TAPP, TEP or eTEP methods depending on the hernia. See hernia surgery.
Hiatus hernia and GERD: laparoscopic fundoplication for selected patients (hiatus hernia surgery).
Appendix, diagnostic laparoscopy and other abdominal surgery, including weight-loss (bariatric) surgery for suitable patients.
Keyhole surgery is not right for everyone. Previous operations, some heart and lung conditions, or a very complicated problem may mean another approach is safer. Dr Bansal explains this after examining you and going through your scans. See our laparoscopic surgery page for details.
Piles (haemorrhoids) treatment: from diet to laser
Piles are one of the most common reasons adults see a surgeon, and there is no need to feel embarrassed. Early treatment is simpler, and most people never need an operation.
Simple steps that help piles:
Eat more fibre: fruits, vegetables, whole grains, dal and isabgol (psyllium) if advised
Drink enough water and do not hold back the urge to pass stool
Do not sit on the toilet for long or read on the phone there
Use sitz baths (warm water) for 10–15 minutes, two or three times a day, when there is pain
If bleeding, prolapse or pain continues, Dr Saurabh Bansal may suggest laser haemorrhoidoplasty or another procedure at THE CLINICS MISC, Hauz Khas. Patients from Sarojini Nagar with piles together with a fissure or fistula may be able to have both treated in one sitting, if the doctor finds it suitable. See our piles surgery page.
Prostate treatment for men from Sarojini Nagar
An enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia, BPH) is common in men over 50. The prostate surrounds the urine passage, so as it grows it can cause a weak stream, straining, dribbling, frequent urination at night and a feeling that the bladder is not empty. These symptoms can have other causes too, so a urologist should check them.
At THE CLINICS, prostate problems are treated by urologists Dr Saurabh Girotra and Dr Bipul Agarwal. Tests include a symptom score, ultrasound with a check of urine left after voiding, urine tests and PSA. Many men do well on medicines. Surgery, TURP or HoLEP laser, is advised when medicines fail, or after urine retention, repeated infections or bladder stones. It is done through the urine passage at THE CLINICS MISC, usually with one night in hospital. Cost is an estimate after examination. See enlarged prostate treatment and TURP surgery.
Follow-up dressing and review visits after surgery are short, which matters when you are travelling from Sarojini Nagar.
Urology care near Sarojini Nagar
Urology team at THE CLINICS: Dr Saurabh Girotra (Consultant Urologist & Andrologist) and Dr Bipul Agarwal (Urologist). Urology procedures are done by them, not by Dr Saurabh Bansal.
Conditions treated: kidney, ureter and bladder stones, enlarged prostate, urinary infections that keep coming back, blood in the urine, narrowing of the urine passage and conditions needing circumcision.
How surgery is done: mostly endoscopic, through the urine passage, at THE CLINICS MISC in Hauz Khas: URS, RIRS and PCNL for stones, and TURP or HoLEP for the prostate.
Urgent signs: fever with stone pain, or being unable to pass urine, need immediate care at the nearest hospital, as THE CLINICS has no emergency department.
From Sarojini Nagar, the Hauz Khas branch is about 5–6 km away, so pre-operative tests and follow-up visits are easy to fit into a working day.
Women's health near Sarojini Nagar: gynaecology surgery at THE CLINICS

Cost: hysterectomy is around ₹1.25 lakh to ₹2 lakh, depending on the disease, the type of surgery, hospitalisation and room category. Other procedures are quoted after examination.
Read about gynaecology surgery at THE CLINICS, hysterectomy and Dr Niti Vijay.
Evening OPD at THE CLINICS Green Park (Mon–Sat, 6–8 pm) helps people from Sarojini Nagar who cannot take time off during the day.
Hiatus hernia surgery for patients from Sarojini Nagar
A hiatus hernia is present when the upper part of the stomach slides up through the diaphragm into the chest. The valve between the food pipe and stomach then works poorly, and acid flows back up. People feel heartburn, sour burps, food coming back into the mouth, a cough at night or chest discomfort, and many take antacids every day.
Most patients start with lifestyle changes and medicines. When symptoms continue despite them, or when the hernia is large, Dr Saurabh Bansal may advise laparoscopic hiatus hernia repair with fundoplication, which narrows the gap and rebuilds the valve. Tests come first: endoscopy, and often pH study and manometry. The all-inclusive package for hiatus hernia / GERD surgery is usually ₹1.5 lakh to ₹2 lakh, confirmed after examination. See hiatus hernia surgery and GERD surgery.
Bring earlier prescriptions and reports when you come from Sarojini Nagar; it avoids repeating tests that were done recently.
Gallbladder stones: keyhole removal near Sarojini Nagar
When gallbladder stones need surgery: repeated attacks of pain, inflammation of the gallbladder (cholecystitis), a stone in the bile duct, jaundice or pancreatitis. Large stones, a thick gallbladder wall or a polyp may also tip the decision.
How it is done: laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anaesthesia, through small cuts, at THE CLINICS MISC in Hauz Khas. If stones have moved into the bile duct, they may need to be cleared first with an endoscopic procedure.
Recovery: walking the same evening, home the next day in most cases, light work after about a week. A normal diet is resumed gradually.
Cost: an all-inclusive package of about ₹75,000 to ₹1.1 lakh for laparoscopic gallbladder surgery, confirmed after Dr Saurabh Bansal has examined you and seen your scan. Full details are on the gallbladder stone surgery page.

Sarojini Nagar patients with a hernia: when to get it repaired
Hernia repair is one of the most frequent keyhole operations Dr Saurabh Bansal performs. The aim is simple: push the bulge back into place and reinforce the weak area with a mesh so it does not come back. The method depends on the type of hernia:
Inguinal (groin) hernia: usually laparoscopic TEP or TAPP repair. Package ₹75,000 to ₹1.5 lakh; open repair ₹75,000 to ₹1 lakh.
Umbilical or ventral hernia: laparoscopic or eTEP repair ₹1.25 lakh to ₹2 lakh; open repair ₹75,000 to ₹1 lakh.
Incisional hernia (after an earlier operation): laparoscopic repair ₹1.5 lakh to ₹2.5 lakh; open repair ₹1 lakh to ₹1.5 lakh.
Each figure is an all-inclusive estimate; the final cost depends on room category, mesh type, approach and the patient's condition, and a written quotation follows the examination. Pain that does not settle or a lump that will not go back needs urgent care. Details: hernia surgery page and ventral and umbilical hernia.
Patients from Sarojini Nagar can share scans and reports on WhatsApp at +91 92173 81353 before travelling, so the first visit is used well.
Kidney stone treatment for Sarojini Nagar
Kidney stones are hard mineral deposits that form in the kidney. While they stay put they may cause no symptoms, but a stone that moves into the ureter can cause sudden, severe pain in the side or back, often with vomiting and blood in the urine. Small stones often pass with fluids and medicines. Larger stones, or stones that block the kidney, need removal.
At THE CLINICS, kidney stone surgery is done by the urology team at THE CLINICS MISC, Hauz Khas. Options include RIRS (flexible laser surgery for kidney stones), URS (laser removal of ureteric stones) and PCNL (keyhole surgery for large stones). RIRS and URS are done through the urine passage with no external incision. Kidney stone surgery packages are usually ₹1 lakh to ₹2 lakh, depending on the procedure. See kidney stone surgery and ureteric stone surgery.
For a planned operation, families from Sarojini Nagar usually find the Hauz Khas branch, about 5–6 km away, simple to reach by road or metro.
Proctology care for Sarojini Nagar patients
Who needs a proctologist? Anyone with bleeding during stool, pain or a tear at the anus, a lump that comes out, discharge or swelling near the anus, or a painful pit near the tailbone. These are usually piles, fissure, fistula or pilonidal sinus, though bleeding should always be checked, especially after age 45. Searching "piles treatment near me" or "fissure treatment near me" is a fair start, but an examination gives the answer.
Where patients from Sarojini Nagar go: THE CLINICS MISC, Hauz Khas, where Dr Saurabh Bansal and Dr Aayush Nagpal (Consultant Coloproctologist) see proctology patients privately. If you have been searching for a proctologist near Sarojini Nagar, this is about 5–6 km away.
Treatment options: medicines and diet for early disease; laser for piles, laser fissure treatment, fistula surgery and pilonidal sinus surgery when needed.
Cost: all-inclusive proctology packages, including laser, are ₹75,000 to ₹1.5 lakh, with the final quotation after examination. Read about laser surgery at THE CLINICS.
Package costs and insurance
Patients from Sarojini Nagar often ask about cost at the first visit, and that is a fair question. THE CLINICS gives all-inclusive package estimates, and the final quotation is shared only after examination, because the room category, mesh type, surgical approach and your condition all change the figure.
Typical package ranges are ₹75,000 to ₹1.5 lakh for proctology (including laser), ₹75,000 to ₹1.1 lakh for laparoscopic gallbladder surgery, ₹75,000 to ₹1.5 lakh for laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair, and ₹1.5 lakh to ₹2 lakh for hiatus hernia / GERD surgery.
