Mumbai / Kolkata, January 31, 2024: Medica Group of Hospitals, the leading private hospital chain in Eastern India, organized an inspiring programme for brain tumour survivors at the hospital today. Recognizing the life-threatening nature of brain tumours and the intricate challenges involved in treating them without causing long-term damage, Medica's team of highly experienced neurosurgeons have achieved commendable success over the past years. The success is attributed to the unwavering faith and support of patients and their families. During the event, Dr. L.N. Tripathy, Director of Medica Institute of Neurological Diseases (MIND), Senior Consultant, Brain and Spine Surgeon; Dr. Harsh Jain, Senior Consultant – Brain and Spine Surgeon and Dr. Sunandan Basu, Senior Consultant, Brain and Spine Surgeon and ably supported by Dr. Pradip Kumar Mondal, Consultant, Medical & Hemato-Oncology and Dr. Sayan Das, Senior Consultant & Head Radiation Oncology. The programme celebrated the stories of over 20 survivors for their extraordinary journeys, demonstrating that they now not only lead normal and fulfilling lives but also act as sources of inspiration to all other fellow patients.
During the gathering, Dr. L.N. Tripathy, shared, "In the field of neurosurgery, addressing brain tumours is not merely a surgical procedure; it's a commitment to not only clinically address the tumour, but also to teat holistically through post-surgical radiation & chemotherapy support and rehabilitation through physiotherapy. We have treated complex brain tumour cases at Medica due to excellent clinical team and the latest technologies. Creation of the support group is to give our patients a platform so that they can share their experiences and give moral support to each other. This group will enable these patients to come back once again to the mainstream of life and lead normal & fulfilling lives.”
Dr. Harsh Jain, shared, "It brings us immense joy to witness everyone present here in a state of well-being and high spirits. At Medica, our commitment is to provide treatment as per global standards in terms of clinical expertise and technology support. We have constituted an internal Tumour Board where we discuss these complex cases across clinicians from concerned disciplines. This board consists of neurosurgeons, neuro-oncologists, neuro-pathologists, and neuro-radiologists, fostering a comprehensive and collaborative approach in addressing these critical cases."
Dr. Sunandan Basu emphasized, "The collective presence of every survivor in this room highlights that patients need not go elsewhere or other parts of the country for treatments. At Medica we have successfully treated these patients not just from the state but all. Across Eastern India. Their personal journeys serve as powerful testaments to overcoming adversity and standing tall."
