About Dr. V S Chauhan

Dr. V S Chauhan is a seasoned general and bariatric surgeon with over two decades of experience helping patients reclaim their health through precise, minimally invasive surgery. As Director of General Surgery at Fortis Hospital, Noida, he has built a strong reputation for his command of laparoscopic techniques — performing more than 15,000 laparoscopic procedures over the course of his career. Whether a patient comes in for a hernia repair, gallstone removal, or a life-changing weight loss procedure, Dr. Chauhan approaches every case with the same calm, thorough focus.

His academic journey began at Banaras Hindu University, where he earned both his MBBS and his postgraduate degree in General Surgery. He then pursued fellowship training internationally, earning the FRCS from Glasgow in the United Kingdom and the FACS — the prestigious Fellowship of the American College of Surgeons — from the USA. These global credentials, alongside several advanced fellowships in laparoscopic and minimal access surgery, reflect a career built on continuous learning and a genuine curiosity about what surgery can do for patients.

Dr. Chauhan's particular interests lie in laparoscopic thyroid surgery, robotic bariatric surgery, and laser procedures — areas that demand both technical finesse and a deep understanding of each patient's overall health. His patients and their families often speak of feeling genuinely heard during consultations, and of leaving with a clear, honest picture of what to expect before, during, and after surgery.

For international patients considering treatment in India, Dr. Chauhan offers something valuable: world-class surgical expertise in a setting that is both accessible and affordable. His broad experience with patients from diverse backgrounds, combined with the infrastructure of Fortis Hospital Noida, makes him a trusted choice for those travelling from abroad for general surgery, hernia care, or bariatric procedures.
