About Dr. Pooja Aggarwal

Dr. Pooja Aggarwal is a Senior Consultant in Dermatology at Medanta - The Medicity, one of India's most recognized multi-specialty hospitals. With over 15 years of clinical practice, she brings together deep expertise in medical dermatology, pediatric skin care, dermatosurgery, and aesthetic treatments — making her a truly well-rounded skin specialist for patients of all ages.

Her academic journey reflects a commitment to excellence from the very beginning. She completed her MD in Dermatology, Venereology and Leprosy from the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), New Delhi — widely regarded as one of Asia's finest medical institutions. This rigorous training laid the foundation for her ability to manage both common and highly complex skin conditions with confidence. She has also contributed to research in the areas of vasculitis and adverse drug reactions, reflecting her interest in advancing the science behind patient care.

Patients and families often describe Dr. Aggarwal as someone who listens carefully and explains things clearly. She is known for recognising that skin conditions rarely exist in isolation — stress, lifestyle, and systemic health all play a role — and she takes a holistic view of every patient she sees. Whether she is managing a child with a rare skin disorder, treating an adult with severe psoriasis using advanced biologics, or helping someone feel more confident through an aesthetic procedure, she approaches every case with the same thoroughness and warmth.

For international patients travelling to India for treatment, Dr. Aggarwal offers the rare combination of AIIMS-calibre training, access to cutting-edge therapies including biologics and energy-based devices, and a communication style that puts anxious patients at ease. GAF Healthcare works closely with her team to make the entire process — from initial consultation to follow-up — smooth and well-supported for patients arriving from abroad.
