The endovascular surgery landscape in India is witnessing a transformative shift. While technological advancement has become commonplace, the true measure of a surgeon’s excellence lies in their ability to democratize these innovations, making them accessible, affordable, and effective for patients across all economic levels. Dr. Bhaskar M.V., through his unwavering commitment to both clinical excellence and patient-centric care, exemplifies this rare combination. TII Magazine recognizes him as the Best Endovascular Surgeon of the Year 2025 for his pioneering contributions to the field and his mission-driven approach to healthcare delivery.
The rightful Recognition
The selection of Dr. Bhaskar M.V. for this award reflects more than just technical prowess. It acknowledges his trailblazing work in establishing endovascular stroke programs across multiple institutions, his pioneering role in performing South Tamil Nadu’s first mechanical thrombectomy, and his relentless pursuit of advancing interventional radiology in India. More significantly, it recognizes his philosophy of keeping cutting-edge treatments affordable and accessible, a stance that directly counters the elitist nature of modern healthcare. With over two decades of experience and thousands of successfully treated patients, Dr. Bhaskar has proven that excellence and affordability are not mutually exclusive.
The Surgeon Behind the Vision
Dr. Bhaskar M.V. is a distinguished endovascular surgeon armed with an impressive portfolio of qualifications – MD in Radiology from JJM Medical College, advanced training from NIMHANS, DNB, DM, FRCR (UK), MNAMS, EBIR, and EDIR
certifications. His academic journey was complemented by pivotal clinical roles at some of India’s premier institutions – Sparsh Group, Vikram Hospital, and Apollo Specialty Hospital, where he spearheaded significant medical initiatives.
Adhventha Hospital itself is a reflection of Dr. Bhaskar’s philosophy. Established in 2018, the facility emerged from his personal conviction that quality healthcare should not be a privilege reserved for the wealthy. Operating from Jayanagar in Bangalore with expanding centers across the city and nearby districts, the hospital has grown into a multispecialty institution staffed by over 23 doctors with specialized expertise, serving more than 20,000 satisfied patients.
Leadership and Clinical Excellence at Adhventha Hospital
As Chairman and Director, Dr. Bhaskar M.V. orchestrates a comprehensive endovascular and interventional radiology program that places the hospital at the forefront of minimally invasive treatments. His clinical focus encompasses endovascular and catheter-based surgeries across vascular and neuro-vascular domains, including angioplasty, stenting, mechanical thrombectomy, and interventional neuro-radiology. His expertise extends to complex peripheral vascular interventions, renal angioplasty, emergency interventional radiology, and critical stroke interventions.
Notably, Dr. Bhaskar has positioned varicose vein treatment as a flagship service at Adhventha, leveraging advanced techniques such as laser ablation, endovenous laser therapy (EVLT), radiofrequency ablation, and foam sclerotherapy. The hospital’s minimally invasive approach, often requiring just a single needle prick, has become a benchmark for patient comfort and recovery.
Beyond clinical practice, Dr. Bhaskar’s leadership has instilled a culture of
evidence-based medicine, continuous learning, and collaborative care. The hospital emphasizes preventive healthcare and early disease detection while maintaining rigorous standards of quality and safety. His vision extends beyond Bangalore; Adhventha has launched rural healthcare camps in Karnataka, providing free medical guidance and consultation services to underserved communities.
A Legacy of Innovation and Compassion
Dr. Bhaskar M.V.’s recognition as the Best Endovascular Surgeon of 2025 summarises a career marked by technical mastery and human compassion. His published research contributions, coupled with his pioneering clinical programs, have advanced the field of interventional radiology in India. Yet his greatest achievement may be demonstrating that hospitals need not choose between cutting-edge technology and affordability, that excellence can be both world-class and accessible.
As Adhventha Hospital expands to other Bangalore neighborhoods and tier-2 cities, Dr. Bhaskar’s influence continues to reshape the healthcare landscape, proving that innovation, combined with a commitment to social responsibility, is the true measure of surgical excellence.
