A proud moment of recognition and celebration unfolded on 8th September 2026 at the C.P. Tiwari Auditorium, Sri Aurobindo Institute of Medical Sciences (SAIMS), Indore, as a landmark achievement in tele-robotic surgery was formally honoured in the presence of distinguished members of the medical fraternity.
The occasion brought special recognition to Dr. Mahak Bhandari, Managing Director, Sri Aurobindo Hospital, who received an honour from the World Book of Records, London, acknowledging the recent achievement in tele-robotic surgery. The milestone reflects the possibilities that emerge when advanced robotic systems are integrated with surgical expertise, enabling specialised procedures to extend beyond conventional geographical boundaries.
For Sri Aurobindo Hospital, the recognition represents an important chapter in its continuing journey towards technology-driven healthcare. The achievement highlights the hospital’s focus on adopting advanced surgical technologies while maintaining clinical expertise, precision and patient-centric care at the heart of every endeavour.
The ceremony was graced by Shri Vinod Bhandari, Founder Chairman, SAIMS; Dr. Manjushree Bhandari, Chancellor, SAIMS; and Dr. Mohit Bhandari, Pro-Chancellor, Sri Aurobindo University. Their presence added significance to the celebration and reflected the strong leadership and institutional vision supporting innovation across the healthcare ecosystem.
A milestone of this scale is never the accomplishment of one individual. It is the result of coordinated efforts involving surgeons, operating room teams, technical professionals, medical staff and support teams. Their dedication, preparedness and ability to work together played a vital role in turning an ambitious idea into a remarkable surgical achievement.
The celebration also included a heartfelt gesture of appreciation for the people behind the success. Dr. Mahak Bhandari presented every team member with a framed photograph of SAIMS TIMES, acknowledging their individual contribution to the journey. The gesture served as a meaningful tribute to the collective spirit that drives excellence at Sri Aurobindo Hospital.
