What I Do

Procedures & Services

From routine heart check-ups to some of the most advanced procedures available in India — many done through a tiny puncture in the wrist or groin, with no open surgery.

🫀

Complex Angioplasty & Stenting

Opening blocked arteries — including hard, calcified blockages — using rotablation, orbital atherectomy and intravascular lithotripsy (IVL). National award-winning expertise in IVL.

🔍

Imaging-Guided Precision PCI

OCT and IVUS imaging from inside the artery ensures every stent is sized and placed perfectly — better results, fewer repeat procedures.

🛡️

High-Risk & Protected Procedures

CHIP interventions with mechanical heart support (Impella, ECMO) for patients told they're "too risky" for treatment elsewhere.

💠

TAVR — Valve Replacement Without Surgery

Replacing a narrowed aortic valve through a small puncture in the leg. Most patients walk the next day and go home within 2–3 days.

🪡

Mitral & Tricuspid Valve Repair (TEER)

MitraClip and similar clip-based repairs for leaking valves — without opening the chest. Also PTMC, paravalvular leak closure and alcohol septal ablation.

🧩

Hole-in-Heart & Device Closures

Non-surgical closure of ASD, VSD and PDA using 3D echo-guided device sizing, for children's defects discovered in adulthood and beyond.

24/7 Heart Attack Care

Round-the-clock primary angioplasty at Fortis Escorts Heart Institute — because in a heart attack, every minute of heart muscle saved matters.

🩺

Preventive Cardiology

Heart check-ups, cholesterol and BP management, and honest risk assessment — especially for young Indians, where heart disease is rising fast.

💬

Second Opinions

Already advised bypass or a stent? I'll review your angiogram and reports honestly. Sometimes the right answer is medicines — or waiting.
