His expertise includes complex and high-risk cardiac procedures, minimally invasive heart surgeries, heart transplants, and the use of artificial heart and lung support systems. Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Naik said, “This recognition reflects the collective efforts of our entire team. I am proud to be associated with an institution like Marengo CIMS Hospital, which prioritises patient-centric care, advanced infrastructure and teamwork.” He is widely recognised for his patient-centric approach, surgical precision and consistent clinical outcomes. Alongside his medical practice, Dr. Naik has been actively involved in public health initiatives, including campaigns such as “A Healthy Heart” and promoting organ donation awareness. He is also working towards reducing the incidence of heart disease in the long term. The Gujarat Garima Award is conferred for significant contributions to society.
