About

Trained for precision.
Committed to people.

I'm Dr Prashant Philip Das, a minimal access and laparoscopic surgeon based in Hebbal, Bengaluru. I believe surgery should be a last resort done exceptionally well — built on honest counselling, evidence-based technique, and the conviction that patients recover best when they truly understand what is happening to their body.

My approach

Every patient deserves an unhurried conversation, a clear explanation of the options, and an honest recommendation — including when surgery is not the answer. I take time to explain the why behind any procedure, what the day itself will involve, and what recovery genuinely looks like, so that you can make a confident, informed decision.

Wherever it is safe and appropriate, I use minimal access (keyhole) and laser techniques. For most patients these mean smaller incisions, less pain, a shorter hospital stay, and a faster return to normal life — while achieving the same operation as traditional open surgery.

Areas of focus

My practice centres on laparoscopic hernia repair and abdominal wall reconstruction, laparoscopic gallbladder and gastrointestinal surgery, and laser proctology for piles, fissure and fistula. I also offer laparoscopic bariatric (weight-loss) surgery and laser treatment for varicose veins, and have experience in hepato-pancreato-biliary (HPB) surgery.
