About American Association of Physicians of Indian Origin New Jersey
Founded in November 2018 by visionary physicians Dr. Binod Sinha, Dr. Raj Bhayani, Dr. Kishore Ratkalkar, and Dr. Hemant Patel, the New Jersey State AAPI Chapter represents a unified commitment to serving the Edison, New Jersey community with compassion, quality, and professional integrity. Built on shared values and a dedication to patient-centered care, this organization brings together Indian American physicians who are passionate about mentoring the next generation of medical professionals and giving back to their communities. The chapter operates as a collaborative forum where members support one another through various initiatives including community service projects, charitable endeavors, and professional development opportunities. What distinguishes the New Jersey chapter is its emphasis on relationship-building and mutual support—members can access peer advice on everything from practice management challenges to professional recommendations, creating a tight-knit community of practitioners who genuinely care about each other's success. The chapter's vision extends beyond individual achievement to systemic change, working to unite all chapters throughout New Jersey to create a stronger collective voice advocating for physician rights and healthcare equity. By fostering connections among Indian American physicians while simultaneously strengthening bridges with diverse communities and organizations, the Edison-based chapter demonstrates that professional excellence and community service go hand in hand, ultimately benefiting patients and healthcare systems across New Jersey.
