3 specific differences stand out. First, the cardiac surgery team performed India's first robotic mitral valve repair, meaning their experience with minimally invasive cardiac surgery for valve conditions goes beyond what most hospitals in the country offer. Second, the hospital operates a dedicated Heart Failure Clinic under Prof. Dr. Nagamalesh U M, Director of Heart Failure, Transplant and MCS Programme, which is a named specialist programme not available at every cardiac centre. Third, Dr. Mahadev Dixit has performed over 20,000 open-heart surgeries including more than 4,000 paediatric cardiac operations, a surgical volume that very few individual cardiac surgeons anywhere in the world can match.
