Dr. B. Nagaraju, a renowned General Physician and Consultant Interventional Cardiologist affiliated with Vikaas Hospitals, possesses an impressive academic background. He holds an MD degree in Internal Medicine from one of India’s esteemed institutes, PGIMER Chandigarh, and completed his cardiology training at one of North India’s premier institutes, SKIMS, a Deemed Institute in Srinagar, Kashmir. He was awarded a Gold Medal for his academic performance.
Dr. B. Nagaraju began his career as an individual Consultant Cardiologist at Fortis Hospital (2021) Kangra, followed by establishing his own clinic at Guntur, Sri Anjali Multispeciality Hospitals in Kothapeta (2022-2025). He later collaborated with Vikaas Hospitals.

Dr. B. Nagaraju specializes in advanced coronary and structural interventions, including:
1. Multi-Vessel Stenting – Performing stenting for more than two coronary vessels in a single sitting.
2. Bifurcation Stenting Techniques – A complex coronary stenting method where two branches are stented simultaneously, maintaining original vessel integrity. This technique helps avoid CABG (Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting) and ensures faster patient recovery.
3. Advanced Imaging & Diagnostic Techniques –These imaging techniques help in understanding disease severity, optimizing stent placement, and reducing complications:
– IVUS (Intravascular Ultrasound)
– OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography)
– FFR (Fractional Flow Reserve)
– IFR (Instantaneous Wave-Free Ratio)
These techniques help in understanding the nature and severity of the disease through direct vessel visualization. They optimize stent placement, reduce complications, and minimize the number and size of stents used. They also help determine whether a diseased vessel truly requires stenting or if a CABG graft would be more beneficial.
4. Structural & Pediatric Interventions:
1. Pediatric Echocardiography, including for newborns and preterm infants.
2. Device closure for various structural heart lesions such as:
– ASD (Atrial Septal Defect)
– VSD (Ventricular Septal Defect)
– PDA (Patent Ductus Arteriosus)
5. Pacemaker & Electrophysiology Expertise
Dr. B. Nagaraju is proficient in the implantation of various pacemaker devices, including:
– Single-Chamber Pacemaker
– Dual-Chamber Pacemaker
– ICD (Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator)
– CRTD (Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Defibrillator)
– EPS + RFT (Electrophysiological Study & Radiofrequency Ablation Therapy)
6. Peripheral & Cerebral Vascular Interventions
Dr. B. Nagaraju also specializes in vascular interventions, including:
– Peripheral Angioplasty & Stenting (Limb Vessel Interventions)
– Renal Artery Stenting
– Cerebral Vessel InterventionsCarotid Artery Stenting, Vertebral Artery Stenting
