Patient Experience
As a 28-year-old professional dancer with a congenital heart defect requiring complex valve repair, I was terrified my career would end. Dr. Majumdar not only crafted an anesthetic plan that preserved my neuromuscular function but visited me daily post-op with breathing exercises tailored for performers. I'm back on stage, stronger than ever.
My 82-year-old mother with dementia needed emergency pacemaker implantation. Dr. Majumdar's team used specialized sedation protocols that prevented postoperative confusion. He personally explained everything using simple terms she could understand, and her recovery was remarkably calm and complication-free.
When my 7-year-old daughter required cardiac catheterization, Dr. Majumdar created a 'space adventure' narrative where the anesthesia was 'astronaut sleep gas.' He wore galaxy-themed scrubs and had her count backward from 10 to 'blast off.' She woke up smiling and asked when she could go to space again.
As an ironman athlete undergoing planned aortic aneurysm repair, I needed precise hemodynamic management. Dr. Majumdar used advanced monitoring to maintain my athletic physiology during surgery. My recovery beat all projections, and I returned to competition in 5 months.
During my husband's high-risk coronary bypass, Dr. Majumdar noticed subtle ECG changes others might have missed and immediately adjusted the anesthetic plan. This prevented intraoperative complications and likely saved his life. His vigilance was extraordinary.
My 16-year-old son with Down syndrome needed dental surgery under general anesthesia. Dr. Majumdar spent extra time understanding his unique anatomy and anxiety triggers. The team used pediatric-specific techniques that made the experience completely trauma-free for our special needs child.
As a pregnant woman requiring urgent cardiac procedure at 24 weeks, I was terrified for my baby. Dr. Majumdar coordinated with obstetricians to create a fetal-protective anesthetic protocol. Both my daughter and I came through perfectly, and he checked on us daily until discharge.
After my father's complex heart transplant, Dr. Majumdar implemented an innovative pain management protocol that avoided opioids entirely. Using regional blocks and multimodal analgesia, my 68-year-old father was walking within 12 hours and never experienced postoperative nausea or confusion.
During mass casualty incident from a factory explosion, Dr. Majumdar managed anesthesia for 3 critical cardiac trauma cases simultaneously by coordinating multiple teams. His calm leadership under pressure saved multiple lives that night.
My wife with severe pulmonary hypertension needed non-cardiac surgery. Other anesthesiologists had refused, but Dr. Majumdar developed a novel ventilation strategy using nitric oxide infusion. She sailed through the procedure without any pulmonary complications.
As a professional musician with cardiac arrhythmia requiring ablation, I was concerned about anesthesia affecting my hearing. Dr. Majumdar used total intravenous anesthesia with specific otoprotective medications and monitored my auditory evoked potentials throughout. My perfect pitch remains intact.
When my twin toddlers both needed cardiac procedures, Dr. Majumdar scheduled them consecutively and stayed throughout both surgeries. He recognized their different physiological responses and tailored each anesthetic individually. Both recovered faster than expected.
During my mother's emergency surgery with multiple drug allergies, Dr. Majumdar created a completely novel anesthetic protocol using alternative agents. His meticulous planning prevented any allergic reactions and her recovery was remarkably smooth.
As a refugee with limited Hindi/English understanding, Dr. Majumdar used translation apps and diagrams to explain my child's anesthesia plan. He learned key phrases in our language and made us feel truly seen and cared for in a foreign medical system.
My husband with liver cirrhosis needed urgent cardiac surgery. Dr. Majumdar modified the anesthetic approach to account for hepatic metabolism issues, using agents that wouldn't stress the liver. His sophisticated pharmacological knowledge made a dangerous procedure surprisingly uneventful.
