Akash lives in Sarojini Nagar, Lucknow. His premature baby was born three weeks early and had trouble breathing because of low oxygen levels. Worried about their child, the family quickly went to a nearby clinic for help. The next day, a 2D echo test showed that the baby had a serious heart condition that needed urgent care.

The family was referred to Dr. Vijay Agarwal, a paediatric heart surgeon at Tender Palm Hospital, Lucknow. They took their child to Tender Palm Hospital, where Dr. Agarwal did more tests and confirmed how serious the condition was. He explained that the baby needed surgery within 35 days to prevent complications.
The baby spent five days in the NICU to stabilize his condition before having a successful heart surgery. After the surgery, there were some challenges, such as difficulty with lung expansion, but the medical team carefully monitored the baby’s recovery. With their expert care, the baby got better.
Thanks to the Ayushman Bharat scheme, the family received financial help, which made things easier during this tough time. Akash and his family greatly appreciate the caring staff at Tender Palm Hospital, whose support was vital for them. Now, their child is healthy, going to school, and will soon be discharged, starting a new chapter for the family.
They want to thank Dr. Vijay Agarwal and the whole medical team at Tender Palm Hospital for their outstanding care and dedication.
