Patient Experience
A 60-year-old widow with no family support presented with end-stage heart failure due to ischemic cardiomyopathy. Dr. Shenoy recommended and performed a ventricular assist device implantation as destination therapy. Hospital social workers helped arrange home nursing care, and she now manages independently with regular follow-ups.
A 33-year-old pregnant woman in her third trimester developed peripartum cardiomyopathy with rapidly declining cardiac function. Dr. Shenoy coordinated with obstetricians to stabilize her medically, deliver the baby via cesarean section, and subsequently implant a temporary mechanical support device. Both mother and child recovered completely.
A 52-year-old corporate executive with extensive travel history presented with a rare cardiac tumor (myxoma). Dr. Shenoy performed a precise surgical excision through a minimally invasive approach. The patient returned to international business travel within one month with no recurrence detected in annual follow-ups.
A 67-year-old farmer with chronic kidney disease and calcific aortic stenosis was considered high-risk for conventional surgery. Dr. Shenoy performed successful transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). The patient experienced remarkable improvement and returned to farming activities with modified exertion levels.
A 19-year-old college athlete suddenly collapsed during basketball practice due to hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy. Dr. Shenoy performed a septal myectomy surgery that preserved his athletic capabilities while eliminating arrhythmia risk. The patient returned to competitive sports after six months with monitored activity.
A 41-year-old single mother with three children presented with recurrent pericarditis secondary to autoimmune disorder. After failed medical management, Dr. Shenoy performed a pericardiectomy. Her recovery was complicated by autoimmune flares but ultimately successful with multidisciplinary care coordination.
An 80-year-old retired professor with dementia and severe aortic regurgitation was brought by distant relatives. Dr. Shenoy performed valve replacement surgery with special attention to neurological protection. Despite cognitive challenges, the patient showed improved quality of life and physical capacity with family support.
A 56-year-old hotel chef with morbid obesity and sleep apnea developed advanced heart failure. Dr. Shenoy performed coronary artery bypass grafting combined with surgical ventricular restoration. The patient embraced comprehensive cardiac rehabilitation and lost 40kg post-surgery, eliminating his sleep apnea.
My 82-year-old father was rushed to Manipal with severe chest pain. Dr. Sasirekha not only performed an emergency angioplasty with incredible precision but sat with our family for 45 minutes afterward explaining every detail in simple terms. Her calm demeanor during crisis was our anchor.
As a new mother, nothing prepared me for discovering my 6-month-old had a congenital heart defect. Dr. Sasirekha's gentle approach with babies is magical—she examined him while making him smile, and her surgical skill gave our son a perfectly normal heart. We call her our miracle worker.
Came in for what I thought was routine heartburn. Dr. Sasirekha's sharp intuition led to stress tests that revealed critical blockages. Her insistence saved me from a major cardiac event. Follow-up care has been meticulous—she remembers every detail without looking at notes.
Witnessed Dr. Sasirekha handle a Code Blue in the ER with the focus of a symphony conductor. She directed the team while simultaneously comforting the patient's terrified daughter. Medicine needs more doctors who heal both bodies and fears.
Flew from Dubai specifically for Dr. Sasirekha's opinion on my complex arrhythmia. Her innovative ablation technique (which she patiently drew diagrams to explain) solved what three other cardiologists couldn't. Worth every mile traveled.
My follow-up visit felt like meeting an old friend who happens to be a medical genius. She remembered my granddaughter's exam dates and asked about my garden recovery. Medicine with genuine personal connection is rare these days.
Dr. Sasirekha performed a high-risk bypass on my diabetic husband when others hesitated. Her surgical precision combined with postoperative care that included designing a custom diet plan shows she treats the whole person, not just the disease.
Brought my anxious teenager with palpitations. Instead of dismissing it as anxiety, Dr. Sasirekha used a pediatric holter and discovered an intermittent electrical issue. Her way of speaking directly to my daughter made her feel empowered, not scared.
After my valve replacement, I developed unusual complications at 2 AM. Dr. Sasirekha came to the hospital within 20 minutes, still in casual clothes, and stayed until dawn stabilizing me. That level of dedication is unforgettable.
Attended her cardiac wellness workshop expecting boring slides. Instead got interactive sessions where she demonstrated heart models with such passion that I finally understood my own condition. Left feeling educated and motivated.
Watched Dr. Sasirekha calm a screaming child needing an echocardiogram by turning the machine into a 'spaceship scanner' and making heartbeat sounds. The transformation from tears to giggles was a masterclass in pediatric care.
My family and I are grateful for the care we received from Dr. anudeep talagavadi channaiah plastic. The hospital staff was also very supportive.
