Introduction

Dr. Jawali brings with himself a vast experience of performing more than eighteen thousand surgeries and has presented more than 100 scientific papers. He has also performed India’s first minimally invasive bypass surgery (MIDCAB), and also a minimally invasive valve replacement. He pioneered the movement of minimally invasive heart surgery in India. In 2004, he performed World’s first awake major OPEN HEART surgery (Aortic valve replacement with triple bypass), with patient fully awake, without ventilator even when the heart is stopped. He has eight international scientific publications to his credit on this issue.

Dr. Jawali has demonstrated newer techniques of bypass surgery at live surgical workshops in India and abroad.
