When my 82-year-old mother's pancreatic cancer was deemed inoperable elsewhere, Dr. Malhotra pioneered a targeted radiation approach that spared her quality of life.

He even arranged follow-ups via telemedicine when I couldn't travel to Delhi.

After surviving tongue cancer, I struggled with speech rehabilitation until Dr. Malhotra connected me with his unique 'singing therapy' program. He partnered with music therapists to retrain my vocal cords - I now lead bhajan sessions at my temple.
As a wildlife photographer, I was diagnosed with mesothelioma from asbestos exposure in old buildings. Dr. Malhotra developed an immunotherapy regimen that allowed me to continue my work between treatments. I recently published a book featuring birds of Delhi, with special thanks to him.
When my husband's metastatic kidney cancer spread to his spine, Dr. Malhotra assembled a multidisciplinary team that included Ayurvedic practitioners for pain management. This integrative approach gave him two additional quality years to see our granddaughter born.
As a chef losing my sense of taste to throat radiation, Dr. Malhotra worked with nutritionists to create flavor-enhanced meals that I could actually enjoy. He understood that healing involved more than just eliminating cancer cells.

Our premature twins both required hernia repairs. Dr. Lama scheduled their surgeries strategically, considering their low birth weights, and used minimally invasive techniques. Watching them thrive without complications has been our greatest relief.
