Dhananjaya Sharma

Committee Member
General Surgeon

Dr. Sharma is a lifelong activist and campaigner for “appropriate technology for health- care in developing world” with many of his 324 publications focusing on Global Surgery/ low-cost surgical solutions to achieve health equity for underserved populations. Dr. Sharma feels truly blessed to be able to “make a difference” and do God’s work, even though he doesn’t wear a Priest’s collar. He has learned during my travels as Honorary Visiting Professor/ Guest Faculty for teaching a course to many universities in developed and developing countries that the key to Global Surgery is not only the spirit of ‘Noblesse oblige’ shaping the roadmap for innovations for low-cost affordable surgery but also collaborative internationalism; because ‘Global means together’.
