Dr. Sandipta Ray

A 72-year-old retired fisherman from a coastal village was brought by his grandchildren with progressive shortness of breath. Dr. Ray diagnosed severe tricuspid valve regurgitation secondary to untreated childhood rheumatic fever. She coordinated a complex valve repair surgery followed by a six-month recovery with extensive family education about medication adherence and follow-up care.

A 45-year-old single mother working three jobs presented with atypical chest pain. Dr. Ray identified early-stage microvascular angina through specialized testing. She implemented a comprehensive lifestyle modification program with medication therapy, enabling complete symptom resolution within weeks without requiring invasive procedures.

A 19-year-old college athlete collapsed during basketball practice and was found to have arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia. Dr. Ray implanted a subcutaneous ICD and designed a personalized activity regimen, allowing the student to continue studies while managing the condition with remote monitoring technology.

An 81-year-old dementia patient from a nursing home was referred for recurrent falls. Dr. Ray discovered carotid sinus hypersensitivity causing profound bradycardia. She performed a dual-chamber pacemaker implantation with simplified programming, dramatically reducing fall frequency and improving quality of life with minimal family involvement.

A 28-year-old software engineer from an affluent background presented with unexplained syncope during marathon training. Dr. Ray discovered a rare congenital coronary anomaly through advanced cardiac MRI. She performed a minimally invasive corrective procedure, allowing the patient to return to competitive running within three months with no family involvement due to the patient's independent lifestyle.
