A 33-year-old transgender patient on hormone therapy developed breast changes. Dr. Chatterjee's nuanced pathology assessment differentiated hormone-induced changes from malignancy, providing reassurance and appropriate monitoring guidelines.
An 80-year-old dementia patient with unexplained anemia underwent colonoscopy. Dr. Chatterjee identified amyloidosis through rectal biopsy, leading to supportive care planning that improved the patient's comfort in their final months.
As a 28-year-old professional dancer diagnosed with a rare spinal chordoma, I feared I'd never perform again. Dr. Das designed a highly targeted proton therapy plan that spared my mobility while eliminating the tumor. Six months later, I'm back on stage, dancing with full strength and gratitude.
My 8-year-old daughter was diagnosed with medulloblastoma during our family vacation in Kolkata. Dr. Das and his team created an emergency treatment protocol within hours, combining precise radiation with child-friendly support. Her recent MRI shows complete remission, and she's happily back in school.
At 72, with multiple comorbidities and inoperable lung cancer, I had lost all hope. Dr. Das developed a gentle hypofractionated radiation approach that required only five sessions. Not only is my cancer controlled, but I've maintained my quality of life and continue gardening daily.
Watching my husband battle recurrent nasopharyngeal cancer was heartbreaking until we met Dr. Das. His innovative re-irradiation technique using IMRT gave us three additional precious years together, allowing us to celebrate our 50th anniversary surrounded by family.
