Patient Experience
When my husband needed emergency surgery during the pandemic lockdown, Dr. Mukherjee arranged special permissions and implemented innovative safety protocols that allowed me to be present while protecting everyone. His crisis adaptability was remarkable.
As a professional musician with arrhythmia, I needed ablation but feared hand nerve damage. Dr. Mukherjee used advanced mapping and robotic assistance that preserved my fine motor control completely. I was playing concerts again within a month.
A 12-year-old street performer from rural Bengal presented with progressive weakness in her limbs; Dr. Sil diagnosed a rare spinal arteriovenous malformation. Using advanced microsurgical techniques, he successfully removed the lesion. The girl regained full mobility within 6 months and returned to dancing, supported by a hospital-sponsored rehabilitation program.
A 68-year-old retired schoolteacher with a history of hypertension developed sudden-onset facial paralysis and slurred speech; imaging revealed a brainstem cavernoma. Dr. Sil performed a delicate endoscopic resection via a retrosigmoid approach. The patient experienced gradual improvement over 9 months with speech therapy and now volunteers to counsel other stroke survivors.
A 32-year-old software engineer from Kolkata suffered chronic debilitating headaches resistant to medication; Dr. Sil discovered an arachnoid cyst compressing her temporal lobe. He performed minimally invasive endoscopic fenestration. She returned to work pain-free in 3 weeks and later organized a fundraiser for neurosurgical equipment.
My family and I are grateful for the care we received from Dr. maitrayee bhattacharya 1. The hospital staff was also very supportive.
A 45-year-old fisherman from the Sundarbans presented with seizures after a head injury; CT showed a traumatic intracranial hematoma with mass effect. Dr. Sil performed emergency craniotomy and evacuation. The patient made a remarkable recovery despite limited follow-up resources, returning to fishing within 2 months with modified anti-seizure medication.
A 7-year-old boy from an affluent family developed progressive vision loss; MRI revealed a craniopharyngioma. Dr. Sil performed an endoscopic endonasal resection with pituitary preservation. Though requiring lifelong hormone replacement, the child's vision normalized completely, and he now participates in national science olympiads.
An 81-year-old grandmother with dementia fell and developed a subdural hematoma; family initially opted for conservative management but condition deteriorated. Dr. Sil performed bedside twist-drill drainage under local anesthesia. She showed immediate cognitive improvement and returned home with family caregivers trained in fall prevention.
A 19-year-old college athlete sustained a cervical spine fracture during rugby; Dr. Sil performed anterior cervical discectomy and fusion with innovative zero-profile implants. After 6 months of intensive physiotherapy, the patient returned to non-contact sports and now advocates for spinal injury prevention in youth sports.
A 38-year-old pregnant woman (28 weeks gestation) developed sudden severe headaches; MRI revealed a ruptured cerebral aneurysm. Dr. Sil coordinated with obstetricians to perform endovascular coiling under modified anesthesia. Both mother and baby survived without neurological deficits, with delivery occurring successfully at term.
A 55-year-old rickshaw puller with limited literacy presented with hand tremors and imbalance; diagnosis revealed Parkinson's disease with poor medication response. Dr. Sil performed deep brain stimulation surgery with charity funding support. The patient returned to light work within 3 months with dramatically improved symptoms.
A 27-year-old professional dancer developed debilitating back pain; imaging showed a large lumbar disc herniation. Dr. Sil performed microdiscectomy with nerve root decompression. She returned to full dance performance within 8 weeks and choreographed a piece about her recovery journey.
A 62-year-old retired army officer presented with trigeminal neuralgia resistant to medications; Dr. Sil performed microvascular decompression with intraoperative neuromonitoring. The patient experienced immediate pain relief and now leads a support group for chronic pain patients at the hospital.
A 3-year-old child from a remote village developed progressive macrocephaly; diagnosis revealed congenital hydrocephalus. Dr. Sil performed endoscopic third ventriculostomy, avoiding shunt dependency. The child achieved normal developmental milestones with quarterly follow-up visits facilitated by hospital transport services.

At my age, one doesn't look forward to hospital visits. I was quite anxious when my son insisted I see Dr. Aakanksha Malawat at Manipal Dhakuria. From the moment I entered her room, she put me at ease. She spoke clearly, listened patiently to my old complaints, and explained everything about my new medication without rushing. The hospital itself is very clean and calm, which helped. I left feeling looked after, not just treated.
