5 min video - We are proud of the fact that no fistula in the scrotal or perineal group, ever needed more than 2 attempts at closure ( literature records upto 5-8 attempts in this severely affected group).
​
This video could also help some juniors on how to talk on an international stage, how to keep slides SPARSELY written so one uses them as a reference and does not read everything off them. How to use pauses, how to emphasize some things etc.

Getting to know Mr Misra...
Mr Misra absolutely loves working with children and the daily interactions with them and their families makes his day.

To be an advocate for infants and children who cannot fight their own corner is a privilege to him.

The feedback that the little ones or their families give him has been one of the driving forces in his quest for excellence.
He relishes challenging cases- many of the patients he gets from abroad have been operated several times before
 
At most private hospitals where he works, the nursing staff compliment him on 2 things in particular- small incisions and exceptional operating speed, without compromising safety.
​
Smaller incisions mean smaller scars and faster operating time means shorter anesthesia which results in reduced post operative complications.
Married and a father of two children, he has lived in London for decades.

​He is an avid sailor and advanced Scuba diver - please feel free to peruse his gallery to see the pictures of diving with sharks or doing the night sail from Morocco to Spain.
 
Golf is another addiction and he plays regularly twice a week.
