About Me
Dr. Bhati is a multi-organ transplant surgeon and Professor of Surgery at the University of Maryland School of Medicine.

Along with his expertise in liver transplant, living donor liver transplantation, hepatobiliary surgery and renal transplantation, he is one of few surgeons who performs transplant and liver cancer-related surgeries robotically.
Dr. Bhati has been funded by Center for Clinical and Translational Research and is actively involved in improving access to transplantation in obese end-stage liver and kidney disease patients.
