About Doctor
- Dr. Atul Limaye is a top US-trained interventional cardiologist with decades of niche expertise in diagnosing and treating cardiac diseases.
- Dr. Limaye’s expertise lies in his ability to dissect complex clinical cases and identify the key competing drivers of an individual’s cardiac ailment and then chart out the most suitable and effective medications or minimally invasive treatment solutions individualized to the particular patient.
- He has experience of taking care of patients with over 10,000 angiographies and 2500 angioplasties including complex rotablation procedures.
- His expertise encompasses the diagnosis and treatment of ischemic or coronary artery disease; heart failure, abnormal heartbeat or arrhythmia; rheumatic heart disease, and heart valve disorders.
- His practical experience in advising on the right medications and prescribing major lifestyle changes to his patients effectively has endeared him to them over the years.
- Dr. Limaye also leads the Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) program at Fortis Hospital, Mulund, one of the very few selected centers in India with a high level of cardiac and heart surgery experience that has the expertise and advanced equipment required to perform this procedure.
- Dr. Limaye is now doing this procedure with conscious sedation and minimal discomfort which helps in reducing the risk of complications and hospital stay.
- Dr. Limaye is highly skilled in structural heart interventions such as mitral balloon valvotomy and closure devices.
- He is also adept at peripheral interventions including renal stenting and treating all lower limb vascular occlusions (including atherectomy, shock wave lithotripsy, and stenting).
- He is a national proctor for rotational atherectomy (Coronary Rotablation)—a complex procedure with a steep learning curve.
