Qualifications & Training
Dr. Geetali Kharghoria brings a level of academic and clinical training that is rare even among senior dermatologists in Delhi — combining AIIMS residency, international UK certification and active research publication.
Areas of Expertise
Dr. Geetali's training at AIIMS and Max Hospital gives her exceptional depth in both medical dermatology and aesthetic treatments — rare in a single clinician.
Expert diagnosis and management of complex skin conditions — including cases that have been misdiagnosed or inadequately treated elsewhere. Her AIIMS training gives her a depth of clinical knowledge that is exceptionally rare in Delhi's private practice.
One of Delhi's few dermatologists offering biologic therapy for severe skin conditions. Biologics are advanced injectable medications that target the immune pathways causing conditions like psoriasis — delivering results where conventional treatments have failed.
Combines deep medical knowledge with advanced aesthetic expertise — ensuring every laser or aesthetic procedure is backed by clinical precision and safety.
Expert in dermatosurgical procedures and nail disorders — an area that requires specific specialist training and is often undertreated in routine dermatology practice.
Dr. Geetali Kharghoria is among Delhi's most academically distinguished dermatologists — an AIIMS-trained specialist with 11 years of clinical experience, internationally recognised credentials and a published research portfolio that reflects her commitment to advancing the field of dermatology.
After completing her junior residency from UCMS & GTB Hospital, New Delhi, Dr. Geetali pursued her senior residency in Dermatology and Venereology from AIIMS New Delhi — one of the most competitive and rigorous dermatology training programmes in Asia. Her training at AIIMS exposed her to the full spectrum of dermatological conditions, from rare complex disorders to high-volume clinical dermatology.
She further distinguished herself by obtaining the MRCP SCE (UK) — the Specialty Certificate Examination in Dermatology from the Royal Colleges of Physicians — placing her among a very select group of Indian dermatologists with formally recognised international credentials.
Dr. Geetali currently serves as Senior Consultant Dermatologist at Max Hospital, New Delhi — one of India's leading hospital networks — and consults at Monaris Skin & Hair Clinic, Defence Colony. She has also worked at Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Hospital and Max Smart Super Speciality Hospital during her training years.
Her clinical practice spans the full breadth of dermatology — from complex medical skin conditions like psoriasis and lichen planus (where she offers biologic therapy for severe cases) to advanced laser treatments, aesthetic procedures and dermatosurgery. She is particularly known for her patient communication — taking the time to thoroughly explain diagnoses, treatment options and expected outcomes before commencing any procedure.
Her research contributions have been published in multiple peer-reviewed international journals — available online for those wishing to review her academic work.
