Patient Experience
As a 72-year-old retired violinist with essential tremor, I'd accepted I'd never play again—until Dr. Gupta performed focused ultrasound thalamotomy. Waking tremor-free and playing Mozart two days later felt like divine intervention.
Our 8-year-old daughter Maya, born with spina bifida, faced her seventh surgery when Dr. Gupta pioneered an endoscopic third ventriculostomy instead of another shunt. Six months later, she's swimming and shunt-free for the first time in her life.
During my Everest base camp trek at 44, I developed sudden paralysis from a spinal epidural abscess. Medevaced to Artemis, Dr. Gupta performed emergency decompression within hours. Today I walk normally and just completed the Annapurna Circuit.
My 31-year-old wife's colloid cyst was discovered during fertility treatment. Dr. Gupta's endoscopic removal through a tiny incision meant she was home in 48 hours—and we're now expecting twins, calling them our 'miracle babies.'
As a professional gamer at 19, my career ended with a cavernous malformation hemorrhage. Dr. Gupta's awake craniotomy let me communicate during surgery to preserve reaction centers. I'm back competing and won my first post-surgery tournament.
Our 6-month-old son's growing skull fracture from a birth injury seemed hopeless until Dr. Gupta created a novel dural repair using regenerative tissue matrix. His skull is now healing naturally without implants.
At 55, my trigeminal neuralgia made eating impossible. Dr. Gupta's microvascular decompression gave me instant relief—I celebrated with my first proper meal in years: spicy biryani without flinching.
The acoustic neuroma threatening my hearing at 42 seemed like career-ending for a symphony conductor. Dr. Gupta's retrosigmoid approach preserved my hearing completely—I conducted Beethoven's Ninth just three months later.
My 27-year-old brother's gunshot wound to the head had three hospitals declining surgery. Dr. Gupta not only removed the bullet but reconstructed his skull with 3D-printed titanium. He's now relearning walking and talking.
As an 81-year-old with Parkinson's, deep brain stimulation seemed too risky. Dr. Gupta used intraoperative MRI guidance for perfect electrode placement. My tremors stopped mid-surgery, and I've knitted sweaters for all my grandchildren since.
Our 16-year-old daughter's pilocytic astrocytoma was entwined with her optic nerve. Dr. Gupta's fluorescence-guided resection spared her vision completely—she just got her driver's license and sees 20/20.
The craniosynostosis in our 4-month-old identical twins required simultaneous surgery. Dr. Gupta operated on both in consecutive theaters with two teams, correcting their skull shapes perfectly. Their development is now completely normal.
At 38, my hemifacial spasm made teaching unbearable. Dr. Gupta's endoscopic surgery through my eyelid left no visible scar and eliminated the spasms—my students no longer stare during lessons.
My 63-year-old husband's glioblastoma prognosis was grim. Dr. Gupta's supramarginal resection with awake mapping bought us two precious years—time we used to travel across India, creating final memories together.
As a 29-year-old with refractory epilepsy since childhood, Dr. Gupta's laser interstitial thermal therapy destroyed my seizure focus through a 3mm burr hole. I've been seizure-free for 18 months and finally live independently.
