Specialty Areas and Treatments

Dr Debabrata Bera provides highly precise, patient-centric, and minimally invasive cardiac interventions for individuals battling severe irregular heartbeats, structural heart diseases, and advanced heart failure across Kolkata.

Cardiac Electrophysiology (EP) and Arrhythmias

Patients suffering from severe irregular heartbeats (Arrhythmias), unexplained rapid palpitations (SVT/VT), or recurrent Syncope (fainting spells) demand elite, highly accurate diagnostic execution. Dr Bera provides authoritative rhythm care:

• Advanced Electrophysiology (EP) Studies to map abnormal electrical circuits
• 3D Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) to safely destroy abnormal rhythm pathways
• Comprehensive medical and interventional Arrhythmia management

Advanced Pacemakers and Cardiac Devices

Individuals battling dangerously slow heart rates (bradycardia) or highly complex conduction disorders require deeply empathetic and precise device implantation. Dr Bera offers expert pacing solutions:

• Cutting-edge Leadless Pacemaker implantation
• Traditional single and dual-chamber Pacemaker implantation
• Advanced Conduction System Pacing (CSP) for natural heartbeat coordination

Heart Failure and Defibrillator Implants (ICD/CRT)

Patients diagnosed with severe Heart Failure, weakened pumping action, or those at high risk of sudden cardiac arrest demand highly decisive, life-saving medical care. Dr Bera provides elite structural and rhythm interventions:

• Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) implantation
• Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT/ICD) to improve heart pumping
• Complex lead extraction procedures

General Interventional Cardiology

Individuals struggling with severe chest pain due to coronary artery blockages or rheumatic heart disease require highly specialised cardiovascular oversight. Dr Bera is an expert in interventional cardiology:

• Diagnostic Coronary Angiogram and therapeutic Coronary Angioplasty
• Minimally invasive Balloon Mitral Valvuloplasty
• Transcatheter Device Closure in Structural Heart Diseases
