About IRCAD India

India’s premier center for advanced surgical training, innovation, and research in minimally invasive surgery.

Nurturing the Next Generation of Surgeons

IRCAD India was established with a clear mission: to bridge the gap between theoretical surgical knowledge and real-world clinical excellence. In today’s rapidly evolving medical landscape, surgeons must continuously adapt to innovations such as robotics, artificial intelligence, and advanced minimally invasive techniques.

While access to information has increased, access to structured, hands-on, expert-guided training remains limited. IRCAD India addresses this critical need by offering immersive, simulation-based education programs that emphasize precision, safety, and clinical outcomes.

Our training philosophy is built on the belief that true surgical mastery comes from continuous learning, real-time practice, and global academic collaboration. Every program is designed to enhance decision-making, technical expertise, and patient care.

A Global Legacy, Built in India

IRCAD India operates as a proud extension of the globally renowned IRCAD network, headquartered in France. Located within the Sri Aurobindo Institute of Medical Sciences (SAIMS), Indore, the institute delivers international-standard training while addressing regional healthcare needs.

Under the leadership of Dr. Mohit Bhandari, President of IRCAD India, and with the academic guidance of Professor Jacques Marescaux, Global President of IRCAD, the institute continues to set new benchmarks in surgical education.

By integrating advanced simulation labs, expert faculty, and cutting-edge technology, IRCAD India is shaping surgeons who are confident, skilled, and prepared for the future of healthcare.
