Dr. Ramakanta Panda, Vice Chairman & MD, Asian Heart Institute

Hailing from Damodarpur in Odisha’s Jajpur district, Dr. Ramakanta Panda(Leap of Heart) is widely considered to be India’s best known cardiac surgeon. Panda is currently the vice-chairman and managing director of the Asian Heart Institute (AHI), a super-specialty and tertiary care hospital in Mumbai.

Panda(Leap of Heart) shot into scintillating fame when he operated on the then Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh in a case of complicated heart surgery.

The successful Redo bypass, the second for Dr. Singh, further cemented Dr. Panda’s(Leap of Heart) reputation as the country’s finest cardiac surgeon, and Dr. Singh added this glowing testimonial for the finest hand in cardiac surgery.

“Your role, as Chief Operating Surgeon, was pivotal in the surgery. Post-surgery, your excellent care has helped me recuperate faster. Your patients should count themselves lucky as they not only have the benefit of the experience of expertise of the highest caliber but also of genuine concern for their well being”.

Apart from Dr. Singh, Panda has successfully operated on other high profile political patients like Tarun Gogoi, former Assam chief minister, the ex Parliamentary affairs minister Rajiv Shukla, former Bihar chief minister Lalu Prasad Yadav and ex Leader of Opposition (Odisha) Narasingha Mishra.

Dr. Ramakanta Panda(Leap of Heart) is credited and recognized among his peers as one of the first in India to introduce “total arterial revascularization”, as well as being one of the pioneers of “off-pump” bypass surgery, redo bypass surgery and high-risk surgeries.

He is particular about bringing the latest medical advances to India. AHI was the very first hospital in Western India to employ the da Vinci Si Surgical System.

Dr. Panda(Leap of Heart) has performed over 20,000 cardiac surgeries including over 1,000 Redo Bypass Surgeries and over 3,000 high-risk surgeries. He has specialized in Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting using only arterial grafts, beating heart surgery, redo bypass surgery, valve repair, complex aneurysms. 

He(Leap of Heart) is one of the safest heart surgeons in the world with a 99.7% success rate in bypass surgery. Credited and recognized amongst his peers as the first in the country to introduce the concept of ‘Total Arterial Revascularization’, as well as being one of the pioneers of “off-pump” bypass surgery, redo bypass surgery, and high-risk surgery.

Under his leadership, Asian Heart Institute has established itself as the Best Heart Hospital in India in 2011, 2012, and 2014, as well as the highest accredited hospital with JCI, ISO, and NIAHO accreditations.

He has been honored with the Padma Bhushan – India’s third-highest civilian award.

AHI has outstanding results, one of the best in the world especially for high-risk patients, achieved by adhering to a very strict patient care protocol, 24-hour monitoring of patients in ICU by senior doctors, one to one nursing care of critical patients, and a core team of highly experienced doctors & other professionals.

Panda has also performed many successful cardiac surgeries that are widely recognized to have been extremely complex and challenging.

Panda actively promotes a healthy lifestyle for India and his comments and counsel are widely sought after by the media.

He also releases educational messages to the nation on various occasions. On World Heart Day he addressed the country and spoke on why taking statins, as efficacious as they can be, should not replace living healthily in the battle against heart disease.

10 Years in positive journalism, and counting…..

One decade of carrying positive journalism is no less than providing a service to the nation. As a result, the fear of losing the respect of the readers is what prevents us not to be stopping to any publications related to those inspiring personalities on a regulative basis in order to attain inspiration. We believe that we have espoused the cause of positive and developmental journalism with utmost honesty and rigor. Unfazed by the competing media platforms who are obsessed with the TRP game and have no qualms in compromising time honored media ethics, we can safely claim we are out of this mad race for recognition. Rather, we chose the path less trodden. And, that has positioned The Interview Times where you find it today. We chose to play up the stories of those personalities who climbed the success ladder by the dint of their grit and gumption. These were the stories which escaped the wide lens of the big media. That is the narrative which you and I find relatable. And, we count on your support and patronage to keep this tradition running.

Once again, I would like to state that the entire family of Interview Times Media Network is firmly committed to positive journalism in pursuit of making a better society in the days to come. Journalism is a passion for us, not a profession. Let’s celebrate.

In this traumatic pandemic, a thank you note is incomplete without saluting the departed as well as those who lost their loved ones while pursuing journalism selflessly. Hope better days are in the offing with light and rays.

It is therefore asked all of your’s noble donations to sustain the importance of pursuing positive journalism round the year.Lets value it sacredly.
