During this year’s Doctor’s Day celebrations at Manipal Hospital, an unexpected moment of medical brilliance captured attention. Prof. Sandeep Aggarwal, a senior consultant in emergency medicine, performed a life‑saving procedure in only five minutes.
The patient, a 48‑year‑old man suffering from acute chest pain, was brought to the emergency department just before the ceremony. Dr. Aggarwal’s rapid assessment and immediate intervention—comprising a quick ECG, medication, and an urgent cardiac catheterization—prevented what could have been a fatal outcome.
The incident underlined the hospital’s emergency readiness and the critical importance of swift response. It also served as a poignant reminder to the attending doctors and students of the life‑changing impact of prompt care. Source: Google News – Manipal.
