    Overview

  • Dr. Garima Aggarwal is a highly accomplished nephrologist and renal transplant physician in Bengaluru with advanced expertise in complex kidney disease and transplantation medicine. She is currently practising as a Consultant – Nephrologist and Renal Transplant Physician at Manipal Hospital Varthur Road, Whitefield, with focused proficiency in chronic kidney disease, high-risk renal transplantation, dialysis access, and critical care nephrology.

  • She completed her MBBS from Sri Ramachandra Medical College and Research Institute, Chennai, followed by an MD in Internal Medicine from Himalayan Institute of Medical Sciences, where she was a Gold Medalist. She subsequently earned her DM in Nephrology from Amrita Institute of Medical Sciences, Kochi, securing the top rank in her batch. Her super-speciality training included extensive exposure to renal transplant immunology, graft biopsies, plasmapheresis, haemoperfusion, single-pass albumin dialysis, and management of complex dialysis-dependent patients. Her thesis focused on acute kidney injury in children following cardiac surgery, a prospective study involving 120 patients, which she later presented at the American Society of Nephrology’s Kidney Week in Chicago.

  • Dr. Garima Aggarwal is also ACLS certified and actively associated with the International Society of Nephrology, American Society of Nephrology, Indian Society of Nephrology, Delhi Nephrology Society, Indian Medical Association, and Association of Physicians of India.

  • Dr. Garima’s clinical expertise spans chronic kidney disease (CKD), glomerular diseases, dialysis (both haemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis), dialysis vascular access, and renal transplantation, including ABO-incompatible, high immunological risk, and deceased donor transplants. Notably, she successfully performed a rare transhepatic tunnelled haemodialysis catheter insertion into the inferior vena cava as a lifesaving intervention in a patient with failed vascular access, an approach not previously reported from India. Her structured approach to advanced transplant and dialysis care establishes her among the best nephrologists in Varthur Road, Whitefield, particularly in high-risk renal transplantation and interventional nephrology.

This balanced, protocol-driven approach reinforces her standing as one of the best nephrologists in Varthur Road, Whitefield, for advanced kidney care and transplantation medicine.
