First-Ever Cardiothoracic Surgery at Shrimad Rajchandra Hospital and Research Centre

First-Ever Cardiothoracic Surgery at Shrimad Rajchandra Hospital and Research Centre

Shrimad Rajchandra Hospital and Research Centre reached a new milestone recently – the hospital performed its first ever cardiothoracic surgery, the first of its kind in the Dharampur region!

An open-heart surgery is a critical surgery, generally performed in hospitals in large metros and developed cities and towns. However, Shrimad Rajchandra Hospital and Research Centre made this possible in a rural location when 52-year-old Laxibhai was given a new lease of life.

Laxibhai was diagnosed with triple-vessel disease, an extreme form of coronary artery disease in which the major blood vessels supplying the heart become damaged or diseased. He was advised to undergo a coronary bypass surgery by the cardiologist. With his limited resources and a weak financial background, it would have been extremely tough for his family to provide him with the right treatment.

However, with the efforts of the hospital team, this medical miracle became possible. After multiple visits and preparation rounds, the first ever cardiothoracic surgery was finally undertaken. The operation was successful and Laxibhai was kept under close observation. With the help of constant monitoring and a strict medical regimen, he is now on the path of recovery.

In less than four months of inauguration, Shrimad Rajchandra Hospital and Research Centre has truly become a temple of wellness in rural Gujarat, equipped with the most advanced technology and a truly skilled team.
