Advanced surgical procedures and innovative laparoscopic treatments in India tend to be found in expensive hospitals in metropolitan cities, leading many people to spend hundreds of thousands of rupees just to get themselves treated in such hospitals. But the work done by Dr. Shivanshu Misra, the pioneer surgeon of Shivani Hospital, Kanpur, in bringing advanced medical treatment to patients residing in the state of Uttar Pradesh, is making surgery affordable and accessible to all.
Having earned a name in Bariatric Surgery, Advanced Laparoscopy and Minimal Access Surgeries, Dr. Shivanshu Misra has proved himself to be among the rising stars of the healthcare industry who are more focused on bringing about a difference in society rather than earning fame. His vision of extending advanced treatment options to middle and poor class people through his practice in Uttar Pradesh is commendable.
Under the scheme of Ayushman Bharat Yojana, Dr. Misra is conducting highly skilled surgeries and laparoscopic procedures at Shivani Hospital, Kanpur. Through this scheme, patients are able to get themselves treated without having to worry about paying large sums of money towards their health care needs. Many patients opt to go to the bigger cities like Delhi and Mumbai to get themselves operated upon and end up paying huge amounts of money.
One thing that is commendable about Dr. Misra’s work in Kanpur is that he always prioritizes the best interests of the patient and does not succumb to the pressures of profit making. Despite the increasing costs associated with healthcare in India, Dr. Shivanshu Misra has made it possible for people to be able to visit the doctor without having to spend anything at all. From G.I surgeries, hernia surgeries, gallbladder procedures, obesity surgery and complicated laparoscopic procedures, Dr. Misra can offer it all to the people of Kanpur.
Besides Dr. Misra’s medical skills, the contribution itself is a part of a broader picture, which shows the idea of ensuring advanced treatment beyond prestigious hospitals and cities. In particular, Dr. Misra’s activities are aimed at reducing the distance between the advanced healthcare technologies and common patients who face difficulties in accessing quality healthcare services due to various constraints.
As a result, more and more patients from Kanpur and other neighboring areas are becoming confident about going to Shivani Hospital owing to the presence of advanced technologies, ethical and humane practices provided by Dr. Misra within the sphere of healthcare provision.
Thus, although being relatively young, Dr. Shivanshu Misra has already started establishing his authority not only as a highly skilled surgeon but also as a person who gives an excellent example of socially responsible behavior in the field of healthcare.
