Bawa Hospital, Civil Lines

Bawa Hospital is a surgical super-speciality centre in Civil Lines, Ludhiana, serving Punjab since 1977. Founded by Dr. Arvind Bawa and Dr. Lata Bawa, it carries forward a medical lineage spanning four generations of the Bawa family, and today functions as a full-service surgical facility with thirteen speciality departments under one roof.Surgical services include general, gastrointestinal and laparoscopic surgery; hernia and abdominal wall reconstruction; proctology for piles, fissure and fistula; diabetic foot and advanced wound care; and breast surgery. Medical and allied departments cover obstetrics and gynaecology, IVF and fertility, family and internal medicine, orthopaedics, urology, paediatrics, ENT, and diagnostics and radiology.The hospital houses a dedicated Centre of Excellence for Hernia and Abdominal Wall Reconstruction, led by Prof. (Dr.) Ashvind Bawa, MS, FACS. It manages the full range of cases from primary hernias to complex, recurrent and incisional repairs, using component separation and sublay mesh reconstruction. Commonly performed procedures across the hospital include keyhole gallbladder surgery, laser and day-care treatment for piles, sphincter-preserving fistula surgery with MRI mapping, laser and endoscopic management of kidney stones, uterus-preserving myomectomy, and knee replacement.Clinical infrastructure includes laminar-airflow positive-pressure operation theatres with HD laparoscopic imaging and strict sterility protocols to minimise surgical-site infection; intensive care and centralised 24-hour nursing monitoring; motorised private rooms with barrier-free access; and an in-house laboratory, pharmacy, surgical mesh and advanced wound-care inventory. Emergency services, including triage, ambulance and dedicated proctology and wound-care cover, operate round the clock.The hospital's approach is to combine experienced consultant-led care with minimally invasive surgery wherever it is genuinely appropriate, and to ensure every patient understands the diagnosis, the procedure and the realistic course of recovery before treatment begins.
