Biography

Dr. Laxman Dubey passed MBBS in 2003 and obtained MD degree in Cardiology in 2007 from Tongji Medical College of HUST, Wuhan under guidance of Professor Zeng Hesong, Chief of Interventional Cardiology Tongji Hospital. During his cardiology training in HUST he was actively involved in academics as well as research activities. Under the supervision of Prof. Zeng, Dr. Dubey has published several research (both basic and clinical) papers in several international Journals.

Dr. Dubey's research was on coronary heart disease (CHD) and most of his researches have been concentrated on inflammation in CHD, such as inflammatory cytokines and leptin. During his post graduation in HUST he published several articles in distinguished international journals like International Journal of Cardiology, Experimental & Clinical Cardiology, Postgraduate Medical Journal as a First Author.






After completing his cardiology training from HUST, he returned back to Nepal and joined Shahid Gangalal National Heart Center (SGNHC), Bansbari, Kathmandu and worked there for nearly 4 years as a Cardiology Registrar. In SGNHC he worked with Dr. Arun Maskey, MD (Former Executive Director of SGNHC) in cardiology department. From the first day, he was active in managing patients in OPD, emergency room, wards, CCU and actively involved in assisting cath-lab procedures like coronary angiography, PTCA, balloon mitral valvotomy, BPV. He has done thousands of Transthoracic and Transesophageal echocardiography. Under supervision of Dr. Maskey, he performed several cases of coronary angiography independently. He had done hundreds of cases of emergency procedures like temporary pacemaker insertion and pericardiocentesis and taught his juniors to do such procedures.

In 2011, he joined College of Medical Sciences and Teaching Hospital (CMS-TH), Bharatpur as a Consultant in the Dept of Cardiology. He was the first to do cardiac catheterization routinely including CAG and PCI-stenting in CMS-TH. He is the first person to perform Primary PCI independently in CMS-TH (in May 2011), and first person to do permanent pacemaker insertion in CMS-TH. Till now Dr. Dubey has independently performed nearly 500+ cases of CAG, 200+ PCI (majority of Primary PCI in acute STEMI), 30+ permanent pacemaker insertion in a short period of time.

In 2012, Dr. Dubey went to Prague for Post-Graduation Training in Interventional Cardiology under Professor Michael Zelizko in Institute for Clinical and Experimental Medicine (IKEM), where he was actively involved in CAG, complex PCI, and Device Closure of Congenital Anomalies like ASD, PDA.

In 2015, Dr. Laxman Dubey completed DM (Post Doctoral) in Cardiology under supervision of Prof. G. Subramanyam. Dr. Dubey, at present, is the only interventional cardiologist routinely performing both diagnostic and therapeutic cardiac catheterization in CMS-TH, which is the first center to establish Cath-Lab outside the capital city Kathmandu.

Till now Dr. Laxman Dubey has published nearly three dozens of research papers in several national and international scientific journals. Due to his contribution in the field of Cardiology, he has been honored by HYClub in 2013 and CP Memorial Society in 2012 by Gold Medal.
