Patient Experience
My infant son had torticollis - his head always tilted right. Dr. Vaish used gentle cranial-sacral techniques and taught us playful positioning exercises. She made us partners in his care rather than just patients. At his last visit, he looked straight at us for the first time.
Chronic migraine sufferer for 15 years. Dr. Vaish identified cervical instability as the root cause. Her specialized neck stabilization program included proprioceptive retraining I'd never encountered. I've had two migraine-free months - a record since college.
Multiple sclerosis made me resistant to traditional physio. Dr. Vaish designed an aquatic therapy program in Artemis's hydrotherapy pool. The weightlessness let me move in ways land couldn't. She gave me back the joy of movement I thought MS had stolen forever.
Post-cancer surgery left me with lymphedema in my arm. Dr. Vaish's complete decongestive therapy included manual drainage, compression, and skin care. But her real gift was addressing the emotional weight of the swelling - she understood it wasn't just fluid, but a reminder of illness.
Construction accident crushed my foot - surgeons saved it but said I'd always limp. Dr. Vaish used kinesio taping in patterns I'd never seen, combined with graded exposure to different surfaces. Last week I walked barefoot on the beach without thinking about my foot once.
My Parkinson's tremor made me withdraw from social life. Dr. Vaish's 'big movement' therapy had me sweeping giant imaginary circles and marching dramatically. The larger motions somehow calmed the tiny tremors. I'm playing cards with friends again - and actually holding my cards steady.
A 72-year-old retired schoolteacher with a rare Bombay blood phenotype required emergency surgery after a fall. Dr. Khetarpal coordinated with three international blood banks to source compatible blood, personally overseeing the complex logistics. The patient received a successful transfusion during hip replacement surgery and regained mobility after three months of physiotherapy.
An 8-year-old hemophiliac boy from a low-income family was brought in with spontaneous joint bleeding. Dr. Khetarpal designed a home-based factor VIII infusion protocol and trained the parents in administration. He also connected the family with a charitable organization for ongoing medication support, enabling the child to attend school regularly.
A 34-year-old pregnant woman with sickle cell disease developed a severe crisis at 28 weeks gestation. Dr. Khetarpal performed automated red cell exchange transfusion while coordinating closely with obstetricians. She delivered a healthy baby at 36 weeks and reported significantly reduced pain episodes postpartum.
A 19-year-old college athlete diagnosed with immune thrombocytopenia presented with petechiae and gum bleeding. Dr. Khetarpal initiated a novel combination of intravenous immunoglobulin and thrombopoietin receptor agonists, avoiding steroids to preserve athletic performance. The patient returned to competitive sports within six weeks with normal platelet counts.
A 45-year-old factory worker with undiagnosed von Willebrand disease suffered prolonged bleeding after a tooth extraction. Dr. Khetarpal identified the rare Type 2N variant through specialized coagulation tests and implemented personalized desmopressin therapy. The patient's two daughters were subsequently screened and received preventive counseling.
A 60-year-old philanthropist requiring complex cardiac surgery had multiple alloantibodies from previous transfusions. Dr. Khetarpal established a preoperative blood management program using erythropoietin and iron supplementation, avoiding donor blood entirely during the successful procedure.
A 6-year-old girl with thalassemia major from an orphanage received her first hematopoietic stem cell transplant. Dr. Khetarpal managed the intricate transfusion support during conditioning therapy and graft establishment, collaborating with the transplant team to achieve successful engraftment without transfusion complications.
A 28-year-old refugee with hemolytic disease of the newborn due to anti-Kell antibodies was managed through weekly intrauterine transfusions. Dr. Khetarpal performed the delicate procedures under ultrasound guidance, delivering a healthy baby at 34 weeks who required only brief phototherapy.
A 52-year-old restaurant owner with gastric bleeding and multiple drug antibodies required emergency surgery. Dr. Khetarpal utilized molecular matching and pathogen-reduced platelets, developing a transfusion strategy that prevented refractory platelet issues during the life-saving procedure.
A 17-year-old aspiring model with autoimmune hemolytic anemia failed conventional treatments. Dr. Khetarpal initiated rituximab therapy combined with specialized blood warming techniques during transfusions, achieving disease remission while preserving the patient's career aspirations.
A 68-year-old farmer with chronic kidney disease and anemia resistant to erythropoietin was found to have parvovirus B19 infection. Dr. Khetarpal diagnosed the rare cause through advanced serological testing and coordinated intravenous immunoglobulin therapy, restoring normal hemoglobin production within four weeks.
A 41-year-old software engineer scheduled for elective spinal surgery requested autologous blood donation but was severely anemic. Dr. Khetarpal implemented an integrated blood conservation program using iron infusion and intraoperative cell salvage, enabling the surgery without allogeneic transfusion.
A 9-year-old boy with aplastic anemia developed transfusion-associated graft-versus-host disease. Dr. Khetarpal immediately instituted irradiated blood products and directed the immunosuppressive therapy, successfully reversing the condition while maintaining adequate blood counts.
A 31-year-old pregnant woman with rare anti-U antibodies was managed through Dr. Khetarpal's coordinated effort with national rare donor registries. He arranged frozen blood transport from another state and timed deliveries around available units, ensuring safe delivery of twins at 37 weeks.
