Frequently Asked Questions For Dr. Kirti Koushik A S

Dr. Koushik specializes in Radiation Oncology.

Dr. Koushik is the Head of the Department and Senior Consultant in Radiation Oncology.

IORT is a radiation treatment administered during surgery, delivering a concentrated dose to the tumor site immediately after tumor removal.

IORT can reduce the need for extended post-operative radiotherapy, minimize exposure to healthy tissues, and improve recovery times.

IORT is primarily used for specific cancer types, such as early-stage breast cancer. Eligibility depends on individual patient assessments.

IORT offers precise dose delivery, spares normal tissues, reduces treatment time, and may lower the risk of side effects compared to traditional radiation therapy.

Epilepsy Treatment in India | A Beacon of Hope for Patients

Epilepsy Treatment in India: A Beacon of Hope for Patients Like Fahim Hassan

 

For millions of epilepsy patients worldwide, finding the proper treatment can be a daunting journey filled with uncertainty and emotional strain. While medication can help manage seizures, many individuals—especially children—struggle with persistent symptoms that disrupt their lives. This was the reality for 14-year-old Fahim Hassan from Dhaka, Bangladesh, whose battle with epilepsy consumed most of his childhood.

From the age of six, Fahim experienced frequent seizures—nearly three per week—making everyday life unpredictable. His education suffered, his social interactions dwindled, and the game he once loved, cricket, became something he only watched on TV rather than played on the field. His family felt helpless as years of treatment in Bangladesh yielded little progress, leaving them desperate for a solution.

That solution came in the form of India's advanced neurological care.

India has emerged as a global hub for epilepsy treatment, offering cutting-edge diagnostic techniques, world-class specialists, and accessible healthcare options for international patients. Artemis Hospital in Gurgaon, one of India's leading medical institutions, was where Fahim's life took a dramatic turn. Guided by Dr. Sumit Singh and Dr. Vivek Barun, experts in epilepsy management, he underwent intensive testing—including an Epilepsy Protocol MRI and Video EEG monitoring—to pinpoint the source and nature of his seizures.

The results were conclusive: no surgery was needed. Instead, doctors prescribed a four-month tailored medication regimen, focusing on stabilizing his condition while gradually tapering the dose. The impact was immediate—Fahim's seizures stopped completely from the moment he began treatment.

For his family, it was nothing short of a miracle.

This transformation was made possible by VivaVel Health, a patient-care organization specializing in cross-border medical solutions. From securing a medical visa to arranging consultations, accommodation, and personal guidance throughout the hospital visits, VivaVel ensured the family's transition to India was seamless. Their hands-on support during Fahim's treatment built an emotional bond, so much so that his family presented a heartfelt gift to their VivaVel companion as a token of gratitude.
