About Dr. Garima Satija

Dr. Garima Satija is an ophthalmologist at Fortis Memorial Research Institute, Gurgaon, with a focused practice in cornea, cataract, and anterior segment surgery. Over more than eight years in clinical practice, she has built a reputation for careful surgical technique and a genuinely patient-centered approach — taking the time to explain diagnoses and options in plain language before recommending any procedure.

Her training path reflects a deliberate investment in subspecialty expertise. After completing her MBBS and MS in Ophthalmology, Dr. Satija pursued a dedicated Cornea Fellowship at Dr. Shroff's Charity Eye Hospital in New Delhi — one of India's most respected eye care institutions. That fellowship sharpened her skills in advanced corneal procedures, including corneal transplantation, collagen cross-linking for keratoconus, and amniotic membrane transplantation for complex ocular surface conditions.

In her day-to-day practice, patients and families consistently note how approachable and thorough she is. Whether she is managing a straightforward cataract in an older adult, treating a young patient with keratoconus, or navigating a more complex corneal case, her focus remains on achieving the clearest, safest visual outcome possible. She is also actively involved in national ophthalmology conferences and academic activities, keeping her practice current with evolving evidence.

For international patients considering eye care in India, Dr. Satija offers an important combination: subspecialty cornea training, broad surgical experience across cataract and refractive procedures, and access to the well-established infrastructure of Fortis Memorial Research Institute. The Gaf Healthcare team is on hand to help coordinate your consultation, travel, and follow-up arrangements from start to finish.
