Dr. Manas Ranjan Pradhan

Our 8-year-old daughter, a nationally ranked swimmer, developed recurrent UTIs that threatened her athletic dreams. Dr. Pradhan discovered an anatomical anomaly missed by previous doctors and performed a minimally invasive correction. She's now back in the pool and recently won her first regional championship.

I'm a 45-year-old truck driver who ignored prostate symptoms until I collapsed at a highway rest stop. Dr. Pradhan's team performed emergency surgery for acute urinary retention at 2 AM. His follow-up care included coordinating with my transport company to adjust my routes during recovery.

My husband, a 68-year-old classical musician, needed bladder cancer surgery but feared losing his ability to play the sitar. Dr. Pradhan worked with the anesthesia team to develop a nerve-sparing technique that preserved his fine motor skills. He performed at our anniversary party just six weeks later.

As parents of a nonverbal autistic teenager with kidney stones, we struggled to communicate his pain. Dr. Pradhan spent hours learning our son's communication methods and designed a silent signal system for post-operative care. His empathy transformed a traumatic experience into one of understanding.

As a 72-year-old retired botanist with a rare ureteral stricture from childhood radiation therapy, I'd been turned away by three surgeons who deemed my case too complex. Dr. Pradhan not only developed an innovative robotic approach that preserved my kidney function, but personally taught my grandchildren about flowers through video calls during my recovery.
