Dr. Aditya Verma – Interventional Cardiologist in Kolkata

Dr. Aditya Verma is a Consultant Interventional Cardiologist at Fortis Hospital & Kidney Institute, Kolkata. He specialises in coronary angioplasty, cardiac device implantation, structural heart interventions and the management of cardiovascular conditions. His Fortis Healthcare profile lists 10 years of experience.

Dr. Aditya Verma holds MBBS, MD in Internal Medicine, DNB and DM in Cardiology qualifications. He completed his MBBS at Armed Forces Medical College, Pune, followed by postgraduate training in Internal Medicine at Medical College & Hospital, Kolkata, and DM in Cardiology at IPGME&R, Kolkata.

Dr. Verma has also obtained certification in Transoesophageal Echocardiography and completed a short course in Better Patient Management and Care at IIM Ahmedabad.

As an interventional cardiologist in Kolkata, Dr. Aditya Verma focuses on catheter-based cardiac procedures used to diagnose and treat selected coronary, structural and valvular heart conditions.

Coronary artery disease is a condition in which the blood vessels supplying the heart become narrowed or blocked. Patients may experience chest pain, breathlessness or other symptoms, although some individuals have no warning signs.

Dr. Aditya Verma has documented expertise in coronary angioplasty, a minimally invasive procedure used to improve blood flow through selected narrowed or blocked coronary arteries.

His clinical practice includes primary angioplasty in myocardial infarction, also known as PAMI. This emergency intervention may be performed for selected heart attack patients to restore blood flow to the affected heart muscle.

Coronary imaging-guided percutaneous coronary intervention is another area of Dr. Verma's expertise. Intravascular imaging can help cardiologists assess artery anatomy and guide selected coronary interventions.

Peripheral angioplasty is also included in his documented clinical practice. This procedure may be used to treat selected narrowed arteries outside the heart, depending on the location and severity of vascular disease.

Cardiac rhythm management is an important area of Dr. Aditya Verma's work. His professional profile includes pacemaker implantation, implantable cardioverter-defibrillator therapy and cardiac resynchronisation therapy.

Pacemakers may be recommended for selected patients with slow heart rhythms or conduction abnormalities. The device helps maintain an appropriate heartbeat when the heart's electrical system does not function normally.

Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators, commonly called ICDs, may be used in selected patients at risk of dangerous ventricular arrhythmias. These devices can detect and treat certain life-threatening rhythm disturbances.

Cardiac resynchronisation therapy, or CRT, is a specialised device-based treatment for selected patients with heart failure and abnormal electrical coordination of the heart chambers.

Dr. Aditya Verma also has expertise in conduction system pacing, an advanced cardiac pacing approach that aims to activate the heart's natural electrical conduction pathways in appropriately selected patients.

Structural heart interventions are another documented part of his clinical practice. His expertise includes catheter-based device closure of atrial septal defects, ventricular septal defects and patent ductus arteriosus in suitable patients.

Dr. Verma's professional profile also identifies valvular interventions and transoesophageal echocardiography. These techniques may help evaluate and treat selected heart valve and structural cardiac conditions.

Dr. Aditya Verma is associated with Fortis Hospital & Kidney Institute and BM Birla Heart Hospital in Kolkata. Patients seeking an interventional cardiologist or heart specialist may consult him for evaluation of coronary artery disease, cardiac rhythm disorders and structural heart conditions.
