Patient Experience
A 45-year-old construction worker with no prior medical history collapsed at work due to a massive pulmonary embolism. Dr. Sarkar led an emergency surgical embolectomy team. After a prolonged ICU stay and rehabilitation, the patient made a near-complete recovery and transitioned to a supervisory role.
A 67-year-old wealthy business executive with complex coronary artery disease refused standard CABG due to fear of prolonged recovery. Dr. Sarkar performed robotic-assisted multivessel coronary bypass, allowing discharge in five days. The patient resumed international travel within three weeks.
A 19-year-old college student from an underprivileged background presented with recurrent pericarditis secondary to tuberculosis. Dr. Sarkar initiated antitubercular therapy followed by pericardiectomy when medical management failed. The student returned to studies after six months with full scholarship support.
A 52-year-old female homemaker with metastatic breast cancer developed malignant pericardial effusion causing cardiac tamponade. Dr. Sarkar performed emergency pericardial window creation and initiated palliative care coordination. She achieved good symptom control for her remaining months.

An 80-year-old retired judge with severe COPD and lung cancer required lobectomy. Dr. Sarkar utilized enhanced recovery protocols and non-intubated video-assisted thoracic surgery. The patient was walking the same evening and discharged home with home oxygen therapy on day 4.

My 85-year-old mother was suffering from severe abdominal pain and had lost her appetite completely. Dr. Dutta's gentle yet thorough approach put her at ease immediately. He diagnosed a rare gastrointestinal infection that others had missed and prescribed a treatment that worked wonders within days. His patience with elderly patients is remarkable.
