In recent years, the field of urology has undergone a significant transformation with the introduction and widespread adoption of laparoscopic surgery techniques. Traditionally, urological procedures involved large incisions and lengthy recovery periods. The growing preference for laparoscopic techniques in urology is driven by the numerous advantages they offer compared to traditional surgeries. Laparoscopic procedures involve smaller incisions, which lead to reduced pain, shorter hospital stays, and quicker recovery times for patients. These benefits have made laparoscopic urological surgery increasingly popular among both patients and healthcare providers.
Since its inception in Mumbai in 1986, RG Stone Urology & Laparoscopy Hospital has pioneered the concept of complete, high-quality urological care, setting a benchmark in the medical field. Over the course of 38+ years, RG Hospitals Group has grown into India’s largest chain of urology hospitals, with 17 centers nationwide and plans for further expansion across new locations and regions.
