Patient Experience
My 82-year-old father was admitted with severe pneumonia and multiple complications. Dr. Mandal not only stabilized him within hours but personally checked on him three times daily, explaining each medication's purpose in Bengali so we could understand. His compassionate approach made a terrifying hospital stay manageable.
Brought my 7-year-old daughter in for what I thought was routine fever - turned out to be early-stage typhoid. Dr. Mandal's gentle manner with children is remarkable; he had her laughing while examining her. His detailed dietary recommendations helped her recover faster than expected.
Rushed to ER at 2 AM with acute abdominal pain. Dr. Mandal was on call and immediately ordered a CT scan that revealed appendicitis. His quick decision-making and coordination with the surgical team prevented complications. His calm demeanor during the emergency was incredibly reassuring.
As a diabetic patient, I've been seeing Dr. Mandal for quarterly checkups.

His personalized approach has finally brought my HbA1c under control after years of struggle.
My mother needed complex management of COPD, heart failure, and renal issues. Dr. Mandal created an integrated treatment plan that considered how each condition affected the others. His coordination with pulmonology and cardiology specialists was seamless - we finally felt someone was truly overseeing her complete care.
Came in for what I thought would be a quick prescription refill, but Dr. Mandal noticed subtle symptoms others had missed. His thorough examination led to early detection of autoimmune thyroiditis. His insistence on digging deeper probably saved me years of unexplained health issues.
Follow-up visit after hospitalization for gastrointestinal bleeding. Dr. Mandal remembered every detail from my case without looking at notes. His clear explanation of the recovery process and warning signs to watch for made me feel empowered rather than anxious about going home.
Brought my teenage son who was experiencing unexplained weight loss and fatigue. Dr. Mandal's approach with adolescents is exceptional - he spoke directly to my son, not just to me. His non-judgmental questioning uncovered stress-related issues we hadn't considered, leading to appropriate referrals.
As a healthcare worker myself, I'm particular about doctors. Dr. Mandal's diagnostic reasoning is impeccable - he considered rare parasitic infections when treating my persistent fever after my tropical vacation. His knowledge of travel medicine is outstanding.
Emergency case with my husband who collapsed at home. Dr. Mandal's team performed miracles - diagnosed rare adrenal crisis and stabilized him within hours. His ability to explain complex medical situations in simple terms while maintaining hope was extraordinary during those critical days.
Routine executive health checkup turned into life-saving intervention when Dr. Mandal detected abnormal heart rhythms during basic examination. His immediate referral to cardiology and personal follow-up ensured I received a pacemaker before any catastrophic event occurred.
Managing my father's post-stroke complications required delicate balance of blood thinners and blood pressure medications. Dr. Mandal's adjustments were precise and evidence-based. His willingness to answer our after-hours calls personally during the critical first week was beyond professional duty.
Unique case of drug-resistant UTI that multiple doctors had failed to treat. Dr. Mandal ordered sophisticated culture tests and designed a targeted antibiotic regimen based on antimicrobial sensitivity patterns. His expertise in infectious diseases made all the difference.
