BM Birla Heart Research Centre, Alipore

My father 85 years old has been admitted in B M Birla Heart Research Centre, Kolkata for replacement of heart valve (LV) under the renowned TAVI/TAVR specialist Dr Joy Shaibal Shome on 20th April'25.

First of all, we entire family wish to convey our deep regards and thanks to Dr Joy Shome and his team for successful valve replacement surgery and given our father a new normal life. We were very fortunate to have Dr Shome with us for my father's treatment. He is **** ************** wonderful and kind-hearted doctor, we ever met. My father was so happy and expressed his feelings that he has never seen such a doctor in his entire life of 85 years. Dr Shome is not only an expert doctor in TAVI/TAVR but a wonderful human being. He was easily accessible to each and every family member through calls and messages 24x7 basis except the OT hours. Before and after the surgery, he explained everything to us and help us to motivate and plan accordingly. After the TAVI surgery, father was needed Pacemaker to implant and that too executed successfully on the very next day after TAVI.

Our experience in B M Birla Hospital is excellent for their services and proper treatment protocol. All the staff, sisters, medical attendants were excellent in their respective area.

Now my father is absolutely fine and leading normal life.

We wish Dr Joy Shome good luck for helping the people with his expertise and treatment. We strongly recommend our family and friends to visit Dr Joy in case of any heart related issue.

I had consulted Docter Sabyasachi Paul at B. M. Birla Cardiac Research Centre for my Father's heart problem. He advised us to implant pacemaker due to some conduction issue and describe us very clearly why it's obvious for us. He is very energetic and positive minded docter . My father is now recovering day by day after operation done by him and he had also appreciated this docter for his post operative care. We are very much satisfied and benefited by the service provided by B. M. Birla Cardiac Research Centre and Dr. Sabyasachi Paul. We wish him good luck. 🙏

My bye pass operation was dine by Dr. Ratan Das, he is very polite by nature and very convincing and explained everything in detail to each family member of my family. After operation he is very friendly not only with patient but also with family members, it never looked that we are talking with a heart surgeon. In all respect, he is superb 👏

Very good behavior. He listens with patience, doesn't do hurry. Polite behavior. Suggests tests if needed. Doesn't give any kind of tension to patient that's the main thing I like. My father get tensed by very minor things but Dr malpani always tell us don't wry,no need to worry just follow such things that's it🙂. I always recommend Dr malpani if someone ask me for good cardiologist with well behavior.

To say that Dr. Daga is brilliant would be an understatement. His humility and pragmatism stands out. He listens to issues very carefully and addresses them in terms of their priorities. My father-in-law had his CABG done by Dr. Daga at BMB and our overall experience has been wonderful. We shall always remain grateful to Dr. Daga. May he be blessed with good health and a long life. He can do a world of good to many heart patients.

My mother aged 85 was detected left main coronary artery (LMCA) disesse the highest-risk lesion subset of ischemic heart disease and has traditionally been an indication for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).

Met him once at BMB, Kolkata and he made the whole problem so easy for us decide to go for the surgery. CABG was conducted and she was fine, our first visit after 10 days of the surgery was very encouraging one and Dr. Daga was so happy to see my mother came to his chamber walking herself.

Not as a doctor alone, he is a nice human being and know very well as to how to emphathized his patients. He is acceisable, give patience hearing to all problems you have. A lovely man with mouthful of smile all the time...............we wish him all best of luck, peace and happiness in life......

Initially, I was very upset with Dr.Kahali as barely spoke and pressed for admission in CCU for my thorough examination including coronary angiography. The prima facie apparently rude behaviour of the doctor created a negative impression on me. So, I came back without listening to his advice. Actually, I should have listened. After few days, feeling acute chest pain and tightness in chest, I was compelled to be admitted in a reputed Heart Institute and carried out my Coronary Angiography and other tests in the same manner that was prescribed earlier. During my stay at that hospital, I found Dr.Kahalai talking well to his patients after their angiography and recommending them necessary medicines with careness. So, on 2nd thought based on my first hand experience, I would recommend Dr.Kahali. I am sorry for my initial review on that old man. He is surely an experienced doctor.

** ***** ***** *** *** **** ** ********* ******* ******** In my case of open heart surgery, he has been the best ever I have experienced before the survey and also post surgery. He is very polite by nature and confident to grow the confidence of recovery as the ordeal is indeed a very risky and painful under the knife.

I have recovered to my best in just 3 months and joined office driving my car and having a normal life.

Thank you Doc for everything you have done. I wish you all the best in your life in saving lives.

Thank you once again!

I visited him for my mother's heart failure treatment. He is an amazing doctor and a doctor whom I consider an angel sent by God for my mother.He listens to your problems very patiently & is very down to earth.I would definitely recommend him for any heart related problems specially heart failure.The only negative thing I would mention is the waiting time required is sometimes more as he attends the OPD patients & IPD patients at the same time which is often more time consuming for patients as they need to wait.*** ******** ** *** ** ** **** ************* * **** ****** *********** *********** ********* ** *** ******** * always encourages to do lifestyle modifications along with the medications which is of utmost importance for being healthy.May God bless you doctor.

Actually, it a routine checkup for my father a year ago the doctor had prescribed him CRDT machine so we had come for a check-up the doctor charge high fees & does not give time to the patient ** ****** ******* *** ********
