iRUS is Dr. Himesh Gandhi's specialised robotic uro-oncology practice in Pune. Founded on one belief: every patient deserves the most precise, least invasive, most human care possible. Consultations at our Sangamwadi clinic. Surgical procedures performed at Ruby Hall Clinic - home of the Rupa Rahul Bajaj Centre of Robotic Excellence.
“To give every patient access to the most precise, least invasive urological care - so that the cure never costs more than the disease.”
Robotic surgery is not optional when the organ, the function, and the life are all at stake. iRUS was founded on the conviction that precision is not a privilege - it is a right.
Dr. Himesh Gandhi was the first robotic uro-oncosurgeon to practice in Pune city, beginning robotic surgery in 2017 at the Rupa Rahul Bajaj Centre of Robotic Excellence, Ruby Hall Clinic. Over the past 9+ years he has performed, proctored, and assisted in more than 1,000 robotic procedures across India and abroad. His current annual case volume is 200 - 250 robotic surgeries, with focused expertise in uro-oncology, complex robotic reconstruction, and organ-preserving cancer surgery.

Dr. Gandhi has helped build robotic uro-oncology infrastructure across Pune and the Indian subcontinent.
First robotic urologist to practice at Pune's pioneering robotic centre. Remains the primary surgical home of iRUS patients.
Helped establish the institute's robotic surgery infrastructure.
Founded urology department for office urology and consultative care.
First Focal One (TMS-EDAP, France) Robotic HIFU machine in the Indian subcontinent.
Dr. Gandhi is the first surgeon in the Indian subcontinent to perform Robotic HIFU on the Focal One system, and currently the sole Indian proctor training other surgeons in its use.
Established robotic urological surgery programme.
A legacy of surgical milestones and pioneering treatments that have redefined the standard of care in the region.
Featured for excellence in uro-oncological surgery in Maharashtra.
Pioneer of robotic uro-oncology in the city. Began practice at Ruby Hall Clinic's Rupa Rahul Bajaj Centre of Robotic Excellence.
At the time, the only centre in Maharashtra to offer robotic kidney transplant recipient surgery.
Pioneered the city's earliest adoption of next-generation minimally invasive BPH treatments.
Brought non-surgical robotic HIFU treatment for early localised prostate cancer to India - without surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy.
Sole approved trainer for the Focal One system in India.
Trained an international fellow from Germany in advanced robotic urological surgery.
Patients consult iRUS from across the world, including international surgical fellows trained under Dr. Gandhi.
Beyond his Pune practice, Dr. Gandhi serves as a visiting consultant urologist and uro-oncologist at:
Monrovia, Liberia, West Africa
Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, East Africa
Trusted by International Patient
Dr. Gandhi's surgical expertise draws patients and medical fellows from across major global regions for advanced, organ-preserving procedures.
Every service at iRUS is built around organ preservation, minimal invasiveness, and the fastest possible return to full life. All advanced robotic procedures are performed in association with Ruby Hall Clinic, Pune.
The full spectrum of robotic cancer surgery.
Not every prostate cancer requires surgery. We find the right answer for each man.
Every decision begins with saving the organ first.
Technology that reduces the toll surgery takes on the body.
Life after surgery, fully restored.
Because cancer care is never just one doctor's job.
“The goal was never just to remove the tumour.
It was to return the person.”
From common urological concerns to the most complex uro-oncology cases - one standard of care for every patient.
The robotic and HIFU technology used by Dr. Gandhi is housed at Ruby Hall Clinic, Pune - the surgical home of iRUS patients. iRUS handles consultation, planning, multidisciplinary review, and post-operative care.
Stereoscopic surgical view. The surgeon sees structures no open procedure can reveal - nerve bundles, margins, vessels. Clarity that changes decisions.
7 degrees of freedom. Greater range of motion than the human wrist. Eliminates tremor. Enables microsurgical manoeuvres in spaces the hand cannot reach.
Fuses MRI imaging with real-time ultrasound to target suspicious tissue with pinpoint accuracy. Finds cancers that standard biopsy misses entirely.
High-intensity focused ultrasound. Ablates prostate tumours with no incision. Preserves sexual and urinary function. The future of targeted cancer treatment.
Five steps, one commitment: that you are never alone from your first question to your last follow-up. Every stage is deliberate. Every decision is yours.
Six reasons families across India trust iRUS for the most precise, least invasive robotic uro-oncology care - without leaving Pune.
Dr. Gandhi operates out of Pune's most advanced tertiary care hospitals, ensuring patients receive the highest standard of robotic and postoperative care.
Whether you have a diagnosis, a concern, or simply a question - a consultation with Dr. Gandhi brings clarity on your next step.
