Mohak Hospital (also known as Mohak Hi‑Tech Speciality Hospital) is a multi‑specialty and bariatric surgery centre located within the Sri Aurobindo Institute of Medical Sciences (SAIMS) campus in Indore, Madhya Pradesh, India. The hospital is noted for its use of robotic techniques in bariatric surgery and its integration with medical education infrastructure.[1][2][3]
Notable achievements
In June 2023, Mohak Hospital performed a record-breaking series of 25 consecutive robotic bariatric surgeries within 10 hours utilizing Da Vinci robotic systems and supported by international surgical teams, led by Mohit Bhandari and Mahak Bhandari.[4][5]
In January 2018, Mohak Bariatrics and Robotics, a division of Mohak Hospital, performed bariatric surgery on a Mauritian patient weighing approximately 410 kg, believed to be among the heaviest individuals to undergo the procedure in India at the time. The surgery involved specialized equipment and post-operative care to manage high-risk conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, and respiratory issues. The patient lost 30 kg in the first month following surgery, and the medical team projected a total weight loss of up to 250 kg over two to three years.[6]
