Dr. Khullar was among an exceptional group of individuals who provided excellent care to a critically ill patient. This patient decompensated quickly and required the skills of talented experts. It’s because of his efforts that Mayo Clinic continues to be recognized as the top institution.
“
Amazing! Gentle, kind, strong, caring, understanding, extremely knowledgeable, good communicator. His confidence was contagious, made me feel and know I would be taken care of! We are so thankful to be in Dr. Khullar’s care!! We were in good hands. His team was remarkable!
“
You have found the lines no poet could construct, and coaxed old cadences to flow. Through unlocked river braids of likelihood, the way a flood clears out a river’s bow. And with your fluent gestures, made a heart to boom again inside a brother’s chest. Like clustered thunder, heeding no arrest once lightning makes its flux restart. You gave this pinked-up throb; this rise and fall of many days, pulsating for us all.
“
My experience at Mayo Clinic under your care was a wonderful experience. My wife and I, along with my entire family, will be eternally grateful to you. Thank you so very much. As you told my wife, you gave me a “happy heart”. My sick heart was in trouble and you repaired it. As we talked in the conference before surgery, you calmed my fears and gave me the assurance by your calm, confident manner, that I would be given your best attention, and I went into the surgery feeling completely assured. Your entire team portrayed a wall of confidence, knowledge, professionalism, and security that you were all giving the best of your abilities.
