Dr. Prateek Bhatnagar - Declared best cardiac surgeon of Telangana & AP South India by India Today- January 2026

In its prestigious 50th anniversary issue of January 2026 (Page 655), India Today ranked Dr. Prateek Bhatnagar as the best cardiac surgeon in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, South India. Remarkably, the honour arrived without fanfare—Dr. Bhatnagar learned of it only when a friend shared the details, underscoring his characteristic focus on work rather than accolades.

Dr. Bhatnagar has achieved this honour due to his skills, commitment, intelligence, hard work and the great team that he has. This recognition stands as a testament not only to individual excellence, but to a collective pursuit of saving lives with precision, compassion and integrity.

India Today & Outlook  have both been consistently ranking Dr. Prateek Bhatnagar as one of the very best heart surgeons in South India, for many years now.
