Dr. Vishal Khante — Consultant Cardiothoracic and Minimal Invasive Surgeon in Hyderabad

Dr. Vishal Khante is a Consultant Cardiothoracic and Minimal Invasive Surgeon at Yashoda Hospitals, Secunderabad, in Hyderabad, with more than 23 years of experience. His profile records cardiac surgery together with paediatric cardiac surgery and vascular surgery.

His list leads with minimally invasive cardiac surgery and goes on to coronary artery bypass grafting, heart valve repair and replacement, double valve replacement, multiple valve surgery and combined heart-lung transplantation.

He read MBBS at Government Medical College, Nagpur, under Maharashtra University of Health Sciences in 2003, took his MS in general surgery at Government Medical College, Aurangabad, in 2009, and his MCh in cardiothoracic and vascular surgery at G.B. Pant Hospital in New Delhi in 2013. His fellowship in heart and lung transplant was at Freeman Hospital in Newcastle upon Tyne between 2021 and 2022.

That fellowship, taken nearly a decade after his MCh, is what places transplantation at the end of a list that otherwise describes a conventional and minimally invasive cardiac practice. A surgeon already established in valve and bypass work who then trains abroad in transplantation is adding a service rather than starting one.

Alongside Yashoda Hospitals in Secunderabad he has worked at Kamineni Hospitals and Medical College, at Maxcure Hospitals and at Medicover Hospitals in Hyderabad, as well as at Freeman Hospital where he trained.

His designation names minimal invasive surgery directly, which matches a list on which it appears first rather than as one option among several.
