Plastic Surgery Camp at MAHAN Hospital, India

On this special #AustraliaDay, we celebrate the contributions of everyday Australians like Dr Dilip Gahankari, who proudly led the annual Plastic Surgery Camp at MAHAN Hospital in Melghat, India, for the 17th year!

This year, he and his team performed 139 major and minor procedures, transforming lives through surgeries for burn contractures, mastectomies, fat grafting for facial atrophy, removal of soft tissue tumours, benign lumps, and scar revisions.

Dr. Gahankari’s commitment to bringing high-quality healthcare to underserved communities worldwide is genuinely inspiring. His work continues to demonstrate the power of compassion, skill, and collaboration, focusing on making a real difference in the lives of those in need.

Thank you to all the colleagues, volunteers, and supporters who make this life-changing work possible. Dr Gahankari is proud to be part of such a dedicated team, and as an everyday Aussie, he believes in the power of community to create lasting change. This camp continues to show the power of collaboration and what we can achieve when we come together to serve those in need.

Cheers to making a difference, one life at a time.
