Why Consult Dr Biswarup Purkayastha

Heart and lung transplant surgery is one of the narrowest skill sets in Indian medicine — the number of surgeons formally trained in both, on full-term international fellowships, is genuinely small. Dr Purkayastha holds the two-year Greenlane Fellowship from Auckland, Toronto-Vienna Lung Transplant Academy training, and the MEBCTS by examination from Europe, alongside ELSO-certified ECMO practice. For patients facing end-stage heart or lung failure, or complex valve and aortic surgery where mainstream techniques are not enough, this combination of exposure matters more than any single hospital's name.
