Patient Experience

As a 28-year-old marine biologist, my career seemed over when I was diagnosed with ocular melanoma. Dr. Raina's revolutionary targeted radiation beads preserved my vision completely while eliminating the tumor, allowing me to continue my deep-sea research.
Our 6-year-old daughter's abdominal pain turned out to be Wilms' tumor. Dr. Raina created a personalized treatment plan involving preoperative chemotherapy that shrank the mass enough for a minimally invasive surgery. She even arranged video calls with her teddy bear 'Dr. Bearington' to explain procedures.

My husband's glioblastoma came with a 10% survival prognosis. Dr. Raina's experimental immunotherapy combined with precision radiotherapy gave us three extra quality years together - enough time to see our granddaughter born and take that Alaskan cruise we'd always dreamed of.
At 17, my rare nasopharyngeal cancer made speaking difficult. Dr. Raina's proton therapy preserved my vocal cords completely while eliminating the tumor. I just delivered my high school valedictorian speech without any voice impairment.

As a 68-year-old retired chef, my esophageal cancer threatened my ability to swallow. Dr. Raina's photodynamic therapy combined with a unique nutritional plan let me enjoy cooking and eating throughout treatment, maintaining my quality of life.
My 9-year-old son's recurrent neuroblastoma had failed three previous treatments. Dr. Raina's CAR-T cell therapy using genetically modified immune cells achieved complete remission when all else had failed, giving us our miracle.
Diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer at 35 while running my small business, Dr. Raina scheduled my treatments around critical business cycles and used cold cap therapy to prevent hair loss, preserving both my health and professional image during recovery.
As a 74-year-old retired teacher with multiple comorbidities, my liver metastases seemed untreatable. Dr. Raina's radioembolization procedure targeted the tumors without systemic side effects, allowing me to continue mentoring students throughout treatment.
Our teenage daughter's thyroid cancer developed after childhood radiation exposure. Dr. Raina's robotic surgery left virtually no scar and her radioactive iodine treatment was timed during school breaks, minimizing disruption to her social and academic life.
At 41, my inflammatory breast cancer was aggressive and rare. Dr. Raina's neoadjuvant chemotherapy protocol shrank the tumor dramatically before surgery, and her reconstruction coordination gave me confidence in my body again post-treatment.
