Dr. Anshu Gupta: A Stable Hand in Eye Health
Eye care tends to be neglected—until it's a crisis. For people in Delhi and the surrounding areas, Dr. Anshu Gupta has been a go-to ophthalmologist, providing more than two decades of experience with a patient-centric policy. Respected for her calm nature, clinical acumen, and attention to detail in procedures, she remains a top eye surgeon at a number of the city's top-rated hospitals.
Education and Training
Dr. Anshu Gupta graduated in MBBS from the University of Delhi in 2000, gaining a strong foundation in general medicine. She went on to do her Diploma in Ophthalmology (DO) in 2004, from the University of Delhi. Her postgraduate specialization began her foray into surgical eye care and preservation of vision.
“Clear sight is often taken for granted. I’ve always believed prevention, timely diagnosis, and accessible treatment should be priorities in eye care,” she shared in a Max Hospital internal feature.
Her academic background reflects both consistency and commitment—traits she carries into her day-to-day medical practice.
Experience: 21 Years of Medical Service
With 21 years of practice, out of which 19 years have been as a specialist, Dr. Gupta has witnessed a vast range of cases—starting from the simplest eye check-up to complicated surgical procedures.
She is currently practicing at two centers:
Max Smart Superspeciality Hospital, Saket, Delhi
Max Super Speciality Hospital – Saket East Wing, Delhi
Her experience of working in multidisciplinary hospital environments has reinforced her capacity to deliver comprehensive care, particularly to patients with hypertension, diabetes, or age-related eye disorders.

She is most adept at Trabeculectomy, a surgical technique employed to correct glaucoma by reducing intraocular pressure—a condition in which early treatment prevents permanent harm.
A Calm, Patient-Centered Method
It's not Dr. Anshu Gupta's skill set that keeps her ahead—although that's certainly impressive—it's her patient-centered, even-tempered approach. She's renowned for clearly explaining procedures in terms anyone can understand, empowering patients with the courage to move forward with care without fear.
A patient recently commented in an online review,
"She took the time to walk me through each step of the procedure. I felt comfortable in her care and was never hurried. That's all the difference."
She promotes confidence by never pushing for unnecessary procedures, but rather only recommending treatments when absolutely necessary—a very uncommon virtue in today's healthcare environment.
