About Dr. Sunil Kaul

Dr. Sunil Kaul is a seasoned general and laparoscopic surgeon with more than 38 years of hands-on surgical experience. Based at Indraprastha Apollo Hospital in New Delhi, he consults full-time in the Department of General and Laparoscopic Surgery, where he manages a wide range of conditions — from everyday abdominal problems to complex hernia repairs, thyroid surgery, and minimally invasive bariatric procedures. Patients and referring physicians know him for his calm, methodical approach and his genuine commitment to getting things right.

Dr. Kaul's training journey spans some of the most respected surgical programmes in India. He completed his DNB fellowship in surgery at MCKR Hospital, Delhi, followed by his MS in Surgery at Government Medical College, Jammu. Over the decades he has added internationally recognised fellowships — FICS (International College of Surgeons), FIMSA (International Medical Sciences Academy), and FMAS (Fellow in Minimal Access Surgery) — each reflecting a commitment to staying at the forefront of surgical practice, particularly in minimally invasive techniques.

What patients and their families often remark on is how unhurried Dr. Kaul feels, even in a busy hospital setting. He takes time to explain a diagnosis clearly, walk through the surgical plan in plain language, and address concerns before they become worries. That thoroughness — from the first consultation through to post-operative follow-up — is something international patients especially appreciate when they are far from home and need to trust their care team quickly.

For international patients considering treatment in India, Dr. Kaul's profile at Indraprastha Apollo Hospital offers a reassuring combination: a surgeon with deep experience, advanced laparoscopic skills, fluency in both English and Hindi, and the institutional support of one of India's most recognised multi-specialty hospitals. GAF Healthcare works directly with his team to help coordinate consultations, pre-operative workups, and travel logistics, so your focus can stay on recovery.
