Every heartbeat saved reflects a surgeon's quiet promise to serve with grace

Every heartbeat saved reflects a surgeon's quiet promise to serve with grace

- Dr. Anil Jain Senior Cardiac Surgeon, Founder Director at EPIC Hospital

In the world of cardiac surgery—where urgency dominates, technology evolves daily, and every heartbeat matters—Dr. Anil Jain is an anomaly. He does not command attention with volume, nor does he chase recognition. Yet, through thousands of lives saved and one hospital transformed, he has redefined what it means to heal—not just the heart, but the human being. As the founder and visionary behind EPIC Hospital in Ahmedabad, Dr. Jain's impact is both clinical and cultural. It's in the steady rhythm of the operating theatre he commands. It's in the silent nods of assistant surgeons who know he notices what others don't. It's in the gratitude-filled glances from families who once feared the worst.

This is not a story of a man who performs surgery. This is a story of a man who makes space—for science, for soul, and most importantly, for service.

A Career Built on Precision and Purpose Dr. Jain's journey spans over three decades in cardiovascular and thoracic surgery—a field known for its intensity and precision. Thousands of bypasses, valve repairs, and life-threatening emergencies later, he remains as grounded as when he began. Ask his colleagues, and they'll tell you: his hands may perform miracles, but it's his presence that steadies the room.

"Cardiac surgery demands more than expertise," he often says. "It demands presence. Not just in the operating room, but in moments before and after—when fear, hope, and human emotion are at their peak."
