About Dr. Saurabh Chopra

Dr. Saurabh Chopra is a Consultant in Cardiac Sciences and a highly skilled Interventional Cardiologist with over 15 years of clinical experience. He earned his MBBS and MD in Medicine from the prestigious Institute of Medical Sciences at Banaras Hindu University, followed by a specialized DM in Cardiology from Sri Jayadeva Institute of Cardiovascular Sciences and Research, one of India's leading cardiac training centres. His advanced qualifications and dedicated training in interventional techniques position him as a trusted specialist for complex cardiac conditions.

Dr. Chopra's clinical expertise spans the full spectrum of interventional cardiology. He has extensive experience in coronary angiography, coronary angioplasty, and the management of complex high-risk coronary interventions, including bifurcation lesions, chronic total occlusions (CTO), and left main coronary artery interventions. Beyond percutaneous coronary intervention, he is proficient in calcium debulking using atherectomy devices, trans-radial and trans-femoral approaches, and device-based therapies including pacemaker implantation, implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs), and CRT-D systems. His expertise also extends to structural heart interventions such as atrial septal defect closure and transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), making him versatile across diagnostic and therapeutic modalities.

Dr. Chopra has built a strong reputation for patient-centred care, regularly treating international patients from the Gulf region, Africa, and South Asia seeking advanced cardiac care in India. His ability to communicate fluently in English and Hindi, combined with his methodical approach to complex cases, has earned him high satisfaction ratings among both domestic and international patient cohorts. He takes time to educate patients about their condition and the rationale behind each intervention, ensuring informed decision-making.

He practices at Fortis Memorial Research Institute (FMRI) in Gurgaon, a JCI-accredited multi-specialty hospital renowned for its state-of-the-art interventional cardiac facilities, dedicated cardiac ICU, and comprehensive post-operative care protocols. The hospital's modern catheterization laboratories and robust infrastructure support complex interventions with excellent clinical outcomes. For international patients, FMRI offers a dedicated medical tourism coordination team, pre-operative video consultations, and streamlined administrative support, making it an ideal destination for advanced cardiac care in India.
