Progress in RIRS

In our endeavor to maintain our hospital as the best kidney stone hospital for removal of kidney stones, a new technology was introduced for the first time in India in our hospital in the year 1998 known as Flexible Ureteroscopy (Now popularly Known as RIRS). Since then R P Stone Clinic became a Pioneer Hospital in India for Removal of Kidney Stones by RIRS (Retrograde Intra Renal Surgery). Since then several national and international workshops on RIRS were conducted at R P Stone Clinic, Panipat. First such workshop was conducted under the aegis of North Zone Chapter of Urological Society of India in 1998. Several Training Programs were also conducted here for the treatment of kidney stones by RIRS.

Training in RIRS

After First workshop on Flexible Ureteroscopy for the removal of kidney stones, Doctor Pawan Gupta started working on several Flexible Fiberoptic Ureteroscopes for the treatment of Kidney Stones.
