Friday, 24 Oct, 2025

New York: The New Jersey State American Association of Physicians of Indian Origin  (NJ State AAPI) with Federation of Indian Physicians Associations (FIPA) are planning a research symposium and educational lectures at NJ State AAPI Annual Convention on November 15, 2025. 

The New Jersey State AAPI Chapter was founded in November 2018 by a small group of visionary physicians Dr. Binod Sinha, Dr. Raj Bhayani, Dr. Kishore Ratkalkar and Dr. Hemant Patel, on the premise to bring together all the Indian physicians who share the same value and commitment to provide service to patients at the highest quality and mentor the younger generation of physicians to take the chapter forward. 

The vision of the chapter is to unite all the other chapters in the state of New Jersey as we believe together we can make a stronger impact in advocating the rights of physicians, promoting patient care, healthcare for all including uninsured population, strengthen the bridges with other communities, organizations and government bodies. As the chapter grows we will work with insurance companies for better reimbursement for physicians. 

Dr Raj Bhayani, who assumes the presidency of NJ STATE AAPI from year 2025 is renowned medical professional and is the first ENT surgeon in India who completed training in Neurosurgery and also has a fellowship in Facial Plastic & Micro vascular Surgery. During the duration of his medical profession, more than 50 research papers have been published and presented by him, which has resulted in inclusion of his name in the Marquis Who’s Who in America in Medicine and Healthcare acknowledging his achievements in the medical field. He received the USA Triologic Society award for his research paper. He holds various leadership positions in the healthcare field and leading hospitals in New York heading the ENT and Facial Plastic Surgery divisions. 
The 7th annual convention will be held at Imperia NJ on November 15th.
