About Dr Vivek Jawali - Best Cardio Thoracic Vascular Surgeon in Bangalore

A cardiothoracic surgeon is a medical professional who is certified to perform surgical procedures of all the organs in the chest including the heart, lungs, and esophagus. When we talk about cardiothoracic surgeons in India, there are only a few experts who have gained mastery over the years. One such cardiac surgeon is Dr Vivek Jawali who has pioneered the minimally invasive cardiac surgery in India with a success rate of more than 18,000 cardiothoracic surgeries.

However, India needs more numbers because the degree at which the occurrence rate of the cardio-thoracic-vascular diseases is rising is to create turmoil in the coming years. The major factor contributing to the drastic increase in the disease is a perfect combination of poverty, ignorance, modern lifestyle like smoking, and lack of quality healthcare facilities. Statistics reveal that more than 6750 open heart operations were performed in the year 1999 with more than 50,000 new episodes added every year. This annual increase transformed to a deadly signal with more 2.1 million deaths due to heart diseases in the year 2015. The trend will continue if thoughtful actions are not taken at the right time.
