Dr. Praveen Ganigi

Our 7-year-old daughter needed emergency surgery after a bicycle accident caused a skull fracture. Dr. Ganigi met us in the ER at 2 AM with calm authority. He explained everything in terms we could understand while moving with urgent precision. His team worked miracles, our child was playing with dolls within three days. We'll never forget how he drew smiley faces on her bandages.

I came to Dr. Ganigi for what I thought was routine migraine management. He ordered additional scans and discovered an asymptomatic aneurysm. His matter-of-fact delivery of this life-altering news was somehow comforting. The preventive coiling procedure was flawless, and his follow-up calls on weekends showed dedication beyond expectation.

After three neurosurgeons declined my complex trigeminal neuralgia case, Dr. Ganigi accepted the challenge. His innovative approach combined microvascular decompression with a novel nerve mapping technique he developed. The 11-hour surgery was successful where others feared to operate. His humility about this medical breakthrough speaks volumes.

My follow-up visit for pituitary tumor monitoring turned into an emergency when Dr. Ganigi noticed subtle changes in my vision during routine examination. He personally wheeled me to imaging, identified bleeding, and performed surgery within hours. His observational skills are literally life-saving, what seemed like a routine checkup became critical intervention.

My 82-year-old father was diagnosed with a complex spinal stenosis that left him barely able to walk. Dr. Ganigi didn't just see a medical chart, he saw a person. His gentle approach and clear explanation of the minimally invasive procedure gave us confidence. Post-surgery, Dad is gardening again! The way Dr. Ganigi held his trembling hands during consultation showed extraordinary compassion.
