About Dr. Ganesh Kumar Mani

Dr. Ganesh Kumar Mani has been performing heart surgeries for almost fifty years now. And most people reaching him either need bypass for the arteries or valve replacements. He works on adults needing coronary bypasses to tiny babies born with holes in their hearts needing patching up quickly.

Dr. Mani brought beating heart bypass to Delhi back in 2000, where the heart keeps beating during surgery instead of being stopped. He looks at tests and scans carefully, figures out how complex the blockages or valves are, and talks about whether operating needs are now or later. He has done over 20,000 heart surgeries and got his training in Australia for kids’ heart surgeries and transplants, and picked up how to treat complex birth defects.

Patient Experience & Approach

Patients say Dr. Mani doesn’t panic, explaining heart surgery even when situations look bad. When arteries areblocked badly, he tells them straight what bypass means and how long it takes. Families with babies needing heart fixes, like the fact that he’s done thousands of kids’ surgeries, so complications can be managed by him.
Those who got a beating heart bypass mention healing happened way faster than regular bypass patients they knew. His fifty years of experience mean he’s probably dealt with every major heart problem.
