Patient Experience
My 72-year-old father's pancreatic cancer diagnosis felt like a death sentence until we met Dr. Saxena. He pioneered a minimally invasive procedure that reduced recovery time dramatically. What impressed us most was how he explained complex medical terms in simple Hindi, making my father an active participant in his own care.
When our 8-year-old daughter was diagnosed with rare retinoblastoma, we raced from Jaipur to Manipal Hospital. Dr. Saxena's team was waiting for us at 2 AM. His calm demeanor during the emergency surgery and his follow-up care that included play therapy sessions made our child actually look forward to hospital visits.
As a 45-year-old breast cancer survivor, I appreciated Dr. Saxena's innovative approach to lymphedema management post-mastectomy. He incorporated ancient Indian massage techniques with modern compression therapy - a fusion treatment I haven't seen anywhere else in my 3-year cancer journey.
My wife's glioblastoma diagnosis came during the pandemic lockdowns. Dr. Saxena set up a complete home-care system with remote monitoring, including training our domestic help to assist with basic care. His out-of-the-box thinking during impossible circumstances saved her life multiple times.
Being a 60-year-old classical musician, I was devastated when throat cancer threatened my voice. Dr. Saxena designed a precision radiation therapy that spared my vocal cords while targeting the tumor. Today I continue to perform, thanks to his artist-sensitive approach to oncology.
Our family will never forget how Dr. Saxena handled our teenage son's osteosarcoma diagnosis. He created a 'cancer buddy' system matching him with a survivor pursuing the same engineering degree. This peer support, combined with excellent medical care, made all the difference.
As a 35-year-old pregnant woman diagnosed with leukemia, I faced impossible choices. Dr. Saxena coordinated with obstetricians to time my chemotherapy between trimesters and delivered our healthy baby via planned C-section before starting aggressive treatment. He saved two lives with meticulous planning.
My 82-year-old mother's palliative care under Dr. Saxena was extraordinary. Instead of just managing pain, he created a 'life review' program where medical students recorded her stories and recipes. This dignity-conserving approach made her final months meaningful and joyful.
When traditional chemotherapy failed for my rare adrenal cancer, Dr. Saxena designed a personalized immunotherapy protocol using cutting-edge research from international journals. His willingness to explore unconventional options gave me a second chance when others had given up.
As a truck driver with limited health literacy, I struggled to understand my lung cancer treatment. Dr. Saxena used vehicle metaphors ('chemotherapy is like repairing engine damage') that made complex concepts accessible. His patient education approach should be taught in medical schools.
Our family witnessed Dr. Saxena's brilliance during our daughter's emergency stem cell transplant complications. He recognized a rare graft-versus-host disease manifestation that others missed and implemented a novel treatment protocol that became a case study in medical literature.
Being a yoga instructor with bone metastasis, I appreciated how Dr. Saxena integrated modified yoga poses into my pain management plan. His fusion of Eastern wellness traditions with Western oncology created a truly unique healing experience tailored to my lifestyle.
When my husband's cancer returned after 15 years in remission, Dr. Saxena didn't just treat the disease - he addressed the profound psychological trauma of recurrence. His incorporation of family therapy sessions helped us rebuild our hope and resilience together.
My 82-year-old father was admitted with pneumonia and kidney complications. Dr. Mohit Saran not only managed his complex medication interactions flawlessly but took the time to explain everything to our family in simple terms. His bedside manner made my anxious father feel truly cared for.
Brought my 7-year-old son in with persistent high fever that other doctors dismissed as viral. Dr. Saran immediately ordered specific tests and diagnosed Kawasaki disease. His quick action and expertise saved my child from potential heart complications - forever grateful!
Rushed to Manipal ER at 2 AM with severe abdominal pain. Dr. Saran was on call and immediately recognized it as a rare mesenteric ischemia case. His calm demeanor during emergency surgery preparation kept me from panicking. Truly a lifesaver.
As a diabetic patient, I've been seeing Dr. Saran for routine management for 3 years. His holistic approach to lifestyle modifications alongside medication has helped me reduce my HbA1c from 9.8 to 6.2 without increasing insulin dosage.
Came in for what I thought was routine fatigue. Dr. Saran's meticulous history-taking revealed patterns that led to diagnosing Addison's disease. His persistence in finding the root cause changed my life completely.
My mother's dementia makes medical visits challenging, but Dr. Saran's patience and special way with elderly patients was remarkable. He spoke directly to her, maintained eye contact, and made her feel respected throughout.
During my pregnancy, I developed gestational diabetes and hypertension. Dr. Saran coordinated beautifully with my obstetrician, providing careful internal medicine oversight that ensured both my baby and I stayed healthy.
