Patient Experience
Routine physical turned into a lifesaving intervention when Dr. Chakraberty spotted inconsistent pupil sizes during the exam. He suspected a brain aneurysm and rushed me for imaging. I’m here today because he sees what others might miss.
Rushed my 80-year-old father to Artemis after a bad fall—Dr. Chakraberty’s calm demeanor was a balm in the chaos. He didn’t just treat the hip fracture; he noticed Dad’s mild confusion and ran extra tests, catching a UTI early. Follow-up care felt personal, not procedural.
My 7-year-old swallowed a button battery during a family dinner. Dr. Chakraberty’s team moved like lightning—within minutes, he explained the risks in simple terms and removed it safely. His ability to reassure a terrified child (and her parents) was nothing short of magical.
Came in with chest pain I’d ignored for days, assuming it was stress. Dr. Chakraberty’s sharp intuition led him to order a troponin test—turned out I was having a mild heart attack. His no-nonsense yet compassionate approach probably saved my life.
Post-knee replacement infection had me in agony at 2 AM. Dr. Chakraberty didn’t just prescribe antibiotics; he sat with me, drew diagrams of the healing process, and called the next day to check in. Felt like having a doctor who’s also a guardian.
Brought my teen son after a skateboarding head injury—he was dizzy and vomiting. Dr. Chakraberty cracked a joke about helmets, instantly easing the tension, while simultaneously coordinating a CT scan. His blend of humor and expertise made a scary situation manageable.
My wife, a dementia patient, had a seizure at home. Dr. Chakraberty spoke to her gently, using her name even when she was unresponsive. He treated her dignity as carefully as her vitals—a rare quality in emergency medicine.
Complex hand injury from a kitchen accident—multiple tendons severed. Dr. Chakraberty explained the microsurgery options with such clarity that I felt confident even through the panic. His post-op notes were detailed enough to guide my local physiotherapist perfectly.
Follow-up after a severe allergic reaction: Dr. Chakraberty remembered the exact brand of nuts that triggered it and spent 20 minutes discussing anaphylaxis kits. He didn’t just treat the episode; he equipped me for the future.
Diabetic foot ulcer that other hospitals called ‘manageable.’ Dr. Chakraberty took one look and admitted me for urgent debridement, saying, ‘We don’t gamble with sepsis.’ His decisiveness prevented an amputation.
My newborn spiked a fever at 3 weeks old. Dr. Chakraberty handled my frantic questions with grace, running a full sepsis workup while calming me down. He called us ‘warrior parents’—a small phrase that gave us strength.
Chronic asthma attack during Delhi’s pollution peak—Dr. Chakraberty adjusted my medication on the spot and created a pollution-response plan. He treats emergencies but thinks like a long-term partner in health.
Elective gallbladder surgery that turned complex due to unexpected adhesions. Dr. Chakraberty came out to update my family twice during the procedure, drawing the anatomy on a napkin. That transparency built unshakable trust.
Foreign object lodged in my ear (yes, a cockroach—embarrassing but true). Dr. Chakraberty removed it without judgment, then educated me on preventive measures with a smile. Turned a traumatic event into a learning moment.
Post-COVID fatigue that lingered for months. While others dismissed it, Dr. Chakraberty ordered a full cardiac and pulmonary workup, uncovering mild myocarditis. His willingness to dig deeper gave me my energy back.
