A 60-year-old Tibetan refugee with limited Hindi proficiency presented with a misdiagnosed ventral hernia. Dr. Bawa used gesture-based communication and 3D surgical planning for a robotic repair, involving community leaders in post-op care, leading to complete integration of the patient into local support networks.
An 8-year-old child from a middle-class family had a congenital duodenal web causing failure to thrive. Dr. Bawa performed a robotic duodenoplasty, customizing instrument sizes for pediatric anatomy, with the child gaining 4 kg in two months and the family creating a 'surgery storybook' to explain the experience.
A 50-year-old corporate CEO with a phobia of hospitals required complex adrenal surgery. Dr. Bawa arranged VR simulations of the robotic procedure beforehand and used anxiety-reduction protocols during surgery, resulting in the patient returning to international business travel in 10 days.
A 28-year-old tribal woman from Jharkhand with multiple abdominal adhesions from previous traditional healers' treatments needed bowel obstruction release. Dr. Bawa performed adhesionolysis with intraoperative ultrasound guidance, collaborating with local health workers for culturally sensitive recovery monitoring.
A retired 68-year-old British expat with cardiac stents developed a symptomatic hiatal hernia. Dr. Bawa coordinated with cardiologists for anticoagulant management during robotic fundoplication, enabling the patient to resume his passion for Indian cooking without reflux within three weeks.
