Mr. Balasundar Naidu
I, Mr. Balasundar Naidu, would like to express my deepest gratitude to Dr. Govini Balasubramani for successfully performing my lung transplant surgery. From the very first consultation, doctor explained every step with clarity, patience, and compassion, which gave my family and me immense confidence during a very difficult phase of life.
The surgery and post-operative care were handled with the highest level of professionalism. Even during recovery, Dr. Govini personally monitored my progress and ensured that every concern was addressed promptly. Today, I am breathing freely and living a normal life again only because of her expertise and dedication. I will always be thankful and highly recommend Dr. Govini Balasubramani to anyone in need of advanced lung care.
Mr. Anipakula
My name is Anipakula and my life has been completely transformed after my lung transplant surgery performed by Dr. Govini Balasubramani. She is not just an excellent surgeon but also a very compassionate human being. She took time to understand my condition, answered all our questions, and prepared us mentally and medically for the surgery.
The entire treatment journey from diagnosis to surgery and recovery was well planned and transparent. Even after discharge, Dr. Govini ensured regular follow-ups and guidance, which made recovery stress-free. I feel extremely fortunate to have been treated by such a dedicated and highly experienced doctor.

Undergoing a lung transplant is a life-changing journey, and I was fortunate to have Dr. Govini Balasubramani leading my care. Her professional approach, combined with her deep knowledge and reassuring demeanor, streamlined the entire process from pre-op to recovery. Thanks to her personal involvement in my treatment, I have made a full recovery.

When it comes to a procedure as serious as a lung transplant, safety and sterility are the top priorities. The clinic and the surgical wing under Dr. Govini’s supervision maintain world-class hygiene standards. We were particularly impressed by the strict infection control protocols in the post-op ICU. Dr. Govini and his team ensure that every safety measure is followed to the letter, which is vital for transplant recipients.

Dr. Govini is not just a brilliant surgeon; he is a compassionate human being. He took the time to explain the entire transplant procedure, the risks, and the long-term recovery plan in a way that was easy to understand. He never rushed our questions and treated us with genuine empathy. Having a doctor who listens as well as he performs surgery made all the difference in our recovery journey.

The care doesn’t stop once the surgery is over. Dr. Govini’s team provides exceptional post-operative support. The coordination between the respiratory therapists, nurses, and the surgical team was seamless. They guided us through the pulmonary rehabilitation process with patience and expertise, ensuring that the transition back to daily life was as smooth as possible.

Professionalism at its peak. Dr. Govini and the hospital staff provided a very transparent overview of the procedure costs, timelines, and donor waiting list processes. There were no hidden surprises. The clinic is highly organized, and Dr. Govini’s approach is direct, honest, and incredibly reassuring for patients dealing with end-stage lung disease
Vidhya Sekar [Business]
Dr. Govini literally gave my father a second lease on life. After years of struggling with chronic lung disease, the successful transplant has been nothing short of a miracle. Watching him breathe easily again is something we owe entirely to Dr. Govini’s steady hands and decades of experience. He is a maestro of cardiothoracic surgery.

What does the initial evaluation process involve?
The evaluation is a comprehensive 3- to 5-day process. It includes pulmonary function tests (PFTs), cardiac screenings, blood work, and psychological assessments. Dr. Govini and his team also evaluate the patient’s social support system, as having dedicated caregivers is essential for long-term success.
How are donor lungs matched and allocated in India?
Lungs are allocated through the National Organ and Tissue Transplant Organization (NOTTO). Matching is based on blood type, chest size (to ensure the lungs fit), medical urgency (calculated via a Lung Allocation Score), and the distance between the donor and the recipient.
How long does the surgery take, and what are the safety protocols?
A single lung transplant typically takes 4–6 hours, while a double lung transplant can take 8–12 hours. The clinic follows international safety standards, often utilizing ECMO (Extra Corporeal Membrane Oxygenation) during surgery to support the heart and lungs, ensuring maximum stability for the patient.
What is the recovery timeline in the hospital?
Patients usually spend 3–7 days in the ICU for close monitoring. Once stable, they move to a transplant ward for another 2–3 weeks. During this time, the focus is on pain management, adjusting immunosuppressant doses, and starting “pre-hab” or early physical therapy.
Will I have to take medications for the rest of my life?
Yes. Transplant recipients must take immunosuppressants daily to prevent organ rejection. You will also take “prophylactic” medications (antibiotics/antifungals) to protect against infections. Adherence to this regimen is the most critical factor in long-term survival.
Can I return to a normal lifestyle (work, travel, exercise)?
Most patients experience a dramatic improvement in quality of life. Within 3–6 months, many return to work, enjoy travel, and engage in regular exercise. However, certain precautions remain—such as avoiding raw foods, staying away from crowded areas during flu season, and wearing masks in high-risk environments.
