Dr. Arpita Lahiri

Our 8-year-old daughter was diagnosed with rare congenital nephrotic syndrome. Dr. Lahiri's expertise in pediatric nephrology and her gentle bedside manner made our terrified child actually look forward to hospital visits. After a year of treatment, she's now medication-free and back to school.

I collapsed at work with acute kidney injury after severe dehydration during a heatwave. Dr. Lahiri's emergency team at Manipal performed immediate hemodialysis and her round-the-clock monitoring saved my life. At 42, I never thought I'd face kidney failure, but her expertise gave me a second chance.

My husband's polycystic kidney disease had reached end-stage when we met Dr. Lahiri. She coordinated his kidney transplant with such precision - from finding the perfect donor match to post-operative care. Two years later, he's thriving and we're forever grateful for her comprehensive approach.

As a professional athlete at 28, my career was threatened by exercise-induced proteinuria. Dr. Lahiri designed a unique treatment plan that allowed me to continue training while protecting my kidneys. Her understanding of athletic physiology combined with nephrology expertise saved my career.

As a 72-year-old retired schoolteacher with rapidly declining kidney function, I was terrified of dialysis. Dr. Lahiri's innovative approach using a carefully monitored medication regimen not only stabilized my condition but improved my GFR by 20% within three months. Her personalized nutrition plan made all the difference.
