Dr. Prem Kumar Arora

Dr. Prem Kumar Arora is a Senior Director in General and Minimal Access Surgery at BLK-Max Super Speciality Hospital, New Delhi — one of India's most respected surgical centres. With over 27 years of hands-on experience, he has built a strong reputation for handling a wide range of abdominal and minimally invasive procedures with precision and care. Patients who need hernia repair, gallstone removal, or complex abdominal surgery often find their way to him through word of mouth — and that says a lot.

Dr. Arora's training reflects a genuine commitment to staying at the forefront of his field. Beyond his MS in General Surgery, he holds a Fellowship from the National Board in Minimal Access Surgery and completed advanced training in laparoscopic, robotic, and bariatric techniques at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital — a name synonymous with surgical excellence in India. He also trained in bariatric surgery at the Ayushman Institute of Laparoscopic Surgery under MAX Healthcare. That depth of fellowship training is what allows him to offer patients both traditional and advanced minimally invasive options, choosing the approach that truly fits each case.

What patients and families often mention about Dr. Arora is his calm, thorough communication style. He takes time to explain the procedure, the recovery, and what to realistically expect — something that matters a great deal to people traveling from overseas who may feel anxious about surgery far from home. His career has spanned several leading Delhi hospitals, including Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, Fortis, Apollo, and Metro-RLKC, giving him a breadth of clinical exposure that is genuinely rare.

For international patients considering surgery in India, Dr. Arora represents a reassuring combination: world-class minimally invasive skills, decades of experience across high-volume hospitals, and a patient-first approach that makes a complex journey feel manageable. GAF Healthcare works closely with his team at BLK-Max to coordinate appointments, pre-operative assessments, and post-operative follow-up so that every step of your care is smooth and well-supported.
