Best Super-Speciality Plastic Surgery Hospital in Vijayawada
Founded on a single conviction: that world-class plastic, cosmetic, reconstructive, and burn surgery shouldn't require a family to travel a thousand kilometres, sell land, or sleep outside a hospital in a city they don't know.
More Than 0+ Procedures, One Standard of Care
Numbers that reflect trust, experience and outcomes — not just statistics.
A Letter From Dr Pratap Duggirala
Let me speak to you the way I would if you walked into my consulting room. If you're reading this, something has brought you here. Maybe it's a burn that has changed how you look at yourself in the mirror. Maybe it's a child born with a cleft lip and a thousand worried questions in your heart. Maybe it's an accident that took something from you — a finger, a feature, a piece of your confidence. Or maybe you simply want to feel like yourself again.
Born Out of a Simple Conviction
Pratap Hospital exists because no family in Andhra Pradesh should have to travel a thousand kilometres for world-class plastic and reconstructive care.
Training at India's Top Institutes
MBBS from SDUMC, M.S. in General Surgery from Kurnool Government Medical College, and M.Ch in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery from the prestigious Safdarjung Hospital, New Delhi — where Dr Pratap secured the All India 2nd Rank.
Witnessing the Distance Families Travelled
In Delhi, Dr Pratap saw fathers from Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Odisha and Karnataka sell land, borrow money, and sleep outside hospitals just to give their children a chance at a normal face, a working hand, a dignified life.
One Question Became Pratap Hospital
"Why should they have to travel so far? Why can't this care come closer to home?" — that question became a promise: no one in our region should ever have to leave Vijayawada for world-class plastic, cosmetic, reconstructive or burn surgery again.
A Journey That Has Only Just Begun
Today, patients travel to us from across Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Odisha, Chhattisgarh and even from Indians settled abroad — referred by neighbours, relatives, and families we've had the honour of helping.

Our Mission & Vision
Our Mission
To make world-class plastic, cosmetic, reconstructive and burn surgery accessible — without compromise, without arrogance, without unnecessary cost — to every person from Andhra Pradesh and beyond who walks through our doors. To restore not just form and function, but confidence and dignity.
Our Vision
To be the most trusted super-speciality plastic surgery hospital in Vijayawada and South India — a place where families from any background, speaking any language, carrying any wound, can come and feel: I'm in the right hands.
- No burn victim in our region goes without reconstructive care because of cost.
- No child grows up with a correctable deformity because the family didn't know help existed.
- No one feels judged for wanting to look or feel different in their own body.
- World-class surgery is no longer a privilege of the metro cities.
Where We Are Heading
In the coming years, we are committed to the following — not as marketing promises, but as work already underway.
Rural Burns Outreach
Expanding our Burns reconstruction outreach to rural Andhra and remote districts.
Free Surgical Camps
For cleft lip, post-burn contractures, and congenital deformities.
Training the Next Generation
Training the next generation of plastic surgeons in our region.
Emerging Technologies
Bringing fat grafting, regenerative medicine, and advanced microsurgery to Vijayawada.
Strengthening the Burn Healing Foundation
So that no burn survivor is denied care for financial reasons.
Patient Education in Telugu
Building programs in Telugu and other native languages to help families decide with clarity.
Thank You For Reading This Far
I know hospital websites usually feel cold. I know you've probably read a dozen of them today, and they all sounded the same. I didn't want this one to feel that way.
If you are considering plastic, cosmetic, reconstructive or burn surgery — please come and meet us. No pressure. No commitment. Just a conversation. You can sit across from me and tell me what's bothering you. I will listen. I will tell you honestly what we can and cannot do. And whether or not you choose us, you will leave with clarity — and that itself is something.
We are Pratap Hospital — the best super-speciality plastic surgery hospital in Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh — not because we said so on a banner, but because thousands of patients chose to trust us with their bodies, their faces, and their futures. We hope to earn that same trust from you.
