Why Fortis Mohali Is the Region's Leading Choice for Robotic Surgery

Choosing the right hospital matters far more than choosing the right machine. Many hospitals in Chandigarh and Mohali now own a surgical robot — but your outcome depends on how often that team actually performs your specific procedure. At Fortis Mohali, our internationally trained surgeons hold some of the highest robotic surgery volumes in North India, including one of the region's most established robotic Whipple (pancreatic surgery) programs.

That experience translates directly into what matters to you: smaller incisions, less pain and blood loss, faster recovery, lower infection risk, and preservation of critical functions such as continence, sexual function, speech and swallowing — alongside the precise cancer margins that protect long-term results. It is why patients from across Punjab travel to Fortis Mohali when the stakes are at their highest.

We are also the first centre in the region to run two Da Vinci Xi platforms at the same time, which means shorter waiting times and consistent access to robotic surgery for the patients who need it most.

Two Da Vinci Xi Robots, One Expert Team

The Da Vinci Xi is the fourth-generation surgical robot — the most clinically proven soft-tissue platform in the world. At Fortis Mohali, two of these systems work side by side, controlled in real time by your surgeon. The robot never operates on its own; it is an extension of the surgeon's skill, giving them 3D, 10× magnified vision, tremor-free movement, and 360° wristed instruments that reach deep, narrow spaces the human hand cannot. The result is superior nerve, vessel and organ preservation, and precise suturing in the most difficult anatomy.

Robotic Surgery Specialities at Fortis Mohali

Robotic Urology — Often called the gold standard for prostate, kidney and bladder care. We perform nerve-sparing radical prostatectomy, partial nephrectomy, pyeloplasty and cystectomy with neobladder, with a focus on preserving continence and sexual function. Fortis Mohali handles the highest volumes for complex robotic urology in the region.

Robotic Gynaecology — Fertility-preserving precision for women's health, including robotic myomectomy for fibroids, excision of advanced endometriosis, sacrocolpopexy for prolapse, and hysterectomy for uterine and cervical cancer. Minimal scarring and ovarian preservation make it ideal for younger women planning a pregnancy.

Robotic Onco-Surgery — Comprehensive cancer surgery for the chest, abdomen and pelvis: Whipple's for pancreatic cancer, oesophagectomy, gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy, colorectal resections and liver surgery — delivered with the precise margins and lymph-node clearance that improve survival.

Robotic ENT / Head & Neck (TORS) — Scarless access through the mouth for oropharyngeal cancers, thyroid surgery and sleep apnoea, preserving speech and swallowing with no neck scar.

Robotic General & GI Surgery — Minimally invasive care for complex and recurrent hernias, gallbladder removal, bariatric (weight-loss) surgery, fundoplication and Heller's myotomy — with same-day discharge potential for selected cases and excellent results even in elderly, high-risk patients.

Robotic Breast, Endocrine & Transplant Surgery — Hidden-scar nipple-sparing mastectomy, thyroid and adrenal surgery, and precision robotic kidney transplantation.

The Fortis Mohali Difference

For patients across Mohali, Chandigarh and Punjab, the choice comes down to three things: the experience of the surgeon, how often the team performs your procedure, and the technology behind them. Fortis Mohali leads the region on all three — which is why it is widely regarded as one of the best destinations for robotic surgery in North India.
