Patient Experience
At 72, I never thought I'd face breast cancer, but Dr. Jha's gentle approach made all the difference. He explained everything in simple terms, never rushed me, and even held my hand before surgery. His team at Artemis made me feel like family, not just another elderly patient.
My 14-year-old daughter found a lump and we panicked. Dr. Jha was incredible - he spoke directly to her, not just to us parents. He used diagrams to explain juvenile fibroadenoma and his calm demeanor erased her fears. The minimally invasive procedure left barely a scar.
Rushed to Artemis after a biopsy revealed aggressive cancer. Dr. Jha rearranged his schedule to operate the next day. His precision during the mastectomy and immediate reconstruction was remarkable. I woke up to his reassuring smile and clear recovery plan.
Just came for my annual screening, expecting the usual hurry. Instead, Dr. Jha spent 45 minutes discussing prevention strategies tailored to my family history. He remembered details from my file I'd forgotten and ordered additional tests 'just to be thorough'.
Complex case - bilateral cancer with lymph node involvement. Three surgeons had declined, but Dr. Jha created an innovative approach combining targeted therapy with staged surgeries. Eight months later, I'm cancer-free and back to teaching yoga.
Follow-up visit turned emotional when Dr. Jha noticed my anxiety about recurrence. He didn't just check my scars; he scheduled extra counseling and gave me his personal number for 'those 2 AM worry moments'. That's beyond medical care.
Emergency lumpectomy at midnight - Dr. Jha came straight from a family dinner. His steady hands and focused energy in the OR were awe-inspiring. The nursing staff told me he always puts patients first, regardless of the hour.
My husband's breast cancer diagnosis shocked us all. Dr. Jha handled this rare male case with expertise and sensitivity, creating a treatment plan that addressed both medical needs and the emotional challenges of a 'women's disease'.
Routine checkup revealed DCIS. Dr. Jha presented all options without pushing surgery, even suggesting we monitor for three months. His honesty about overtreatment risks showed he cares about quality of life, not just cutting.
Post-surgery infection had me terrified, but Dr. Jha visited twice daily, personally changing dressings and adjusting antibiotics. His meticulous attention prevented complications that could have ruined the reconstruction.
Flying from Dubai specifically for Dr. Jha's expertise in oncoplastic surgery. Worth every mile - he preserved my breast while removing every trace of cancer. His artistic eye matched his surgical skill.
Pregnancy-associated breast cancer at 28 weeks. Dr. Jha coordinated with obstetricians to time everything perfectly. My healthy daughter and clean margins are both testaments to his careful planning.
Second opinion after another doctor recommended radical mastectomy. Dr. Jha's advanced imaging found the cancer was contained, allowing breast-conserving surgery. His thoroughness saved me from unnecessary trauma.
Follow-up care spanning five years - Dr. Jha remembers every detail of my journey. Last visit, he celebrated my 'cancerversary' with a small gift. That personal touch shows he sees people, not just patients.
Rare phyllodes tumor required specialized expertise. Dr. Jha consulted international colleagues overnight and adapted new techniques. His commitment to solving complex cases is extraordinary.
