According to the media reports, the famous doctor passed away on Tuesday morning at the age of 41.
As per a report by India Today, Gandhi died in his sleep after having a typical day. As usual, Gandhi finished his hospital programme on Monday night and returned to his apartment on Palace Road.
His family stated that they were not bothered by his behaviour. The doctor ate normal food and eventually fell asleep. According to investigators, he made no indication of a problem that night.
He did not wake up at his usual hour the next day. His family members attempted to wake him up at 6 a.m., but he did not answer. As a result, his relatives hurried him to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead on arrival.
Doctors determined that he died as a result of a heart attack.
For those unversed, as per several reports, Gandhi earned his MBBS and MD (Medicine) from MP Shah Medical College in Jamnagar. He then completed the super-specialty DM (Cardiology) degree at the UN Mehta Institute of Cardiology & Research Centre in Ahmedabad.
Last year, he spent as a contractual assistant professor at MP Shah Government Medical College, teaching cardiology and attending to both OPD and critical patients. He was also employed at Jamnagar’s private Sharda Hospital.
His death has reignited fears about heart attacks among young Indians, owing to the fact that he had no symptoms or established triggers and was utterly atypical.
“He was young, physically very active, working for nearly 14 hours a day, a non-smoker and a teetotaller,” says Dr Saugata Chatterjee, assistant medical superintendent of Guru Gobind Singh (GG) General Hospital in Jamnagar city and professor of medicine at the MP Shah Government Medical College.
There was no medical history to suggest that he was at risk of a cardiac incident. He also had no recent history of illness or COVID-19.”
Dr.Gandhi is survived by his wife, Devanshi, who is a dentist, along with their two children and his parents.
