One thing I often tell my patients: liver disease does not always announce itself with pain.

Hepatitis and other liver conditions can remain silent for years. By the time jaundice or other obvious symptoms appear, the disease may already have progressed.

Today, we have effective prevention and treatment options that were unavailable a few decades ago. Hepatitis B can be prevented through vaccination and effectively controlled when chronic infection requires treatment. Hepatitis C can now be cured in more than 95% of people with appropriate antiviral therapy.

My message is simple: don’t wait for your liver to give you symptoms before you start caring for it. Know your risks, avoid self-medication and unregulated supplements, and get tested when medically indicated.

When part or whole of the stomach is removed, the body may absorb certain nutrients differently — especially Vitamin B12 and iron. Over time, this can lead to anemia, low energy, dizziness, tingling, poor appetite, or slow recovery.

That’s why follow-up after surgery is not optional. Blood tests, nutrition review, supplements, and long-term monitoring are part of cancer recovery.

Hepatitis is one word, but types A, B, C, D and E follow completely different routes.

Some spread through contaminated food or water. Some can stay silent in the body for years. Hepatitis B can largely be prevented through timely vaccination, hepatitis C can now be cured in most people, and hepatitis D cannot reproduce without hepatitis B. India has also entered a new phase of prevention with its first approved hepatitis E vaccine for adults aged 18–65 years.

Yellow eyes are only one possible sign. A person may have hepatitis without jaundice or obvious symptoms, especially in chronic hepatitis B or C. The right blood tests depend on the suspected type and possible exposure.

Understanding the type changes everything, from prevention and vaccination to treatment and long-term follow-up.

Do not wait for visible symptoms when there has been a possible exposure, an abnormal liver test or a known infection in the family. Seek a type-specific medical evaluation.

A major driver of fatty liver today is insulin resistance — a condition where the body’s cells stop responding properly to insulin. The result? More sugar stays in circulation, and the liver starts converting that excess energy into fat.

Over time, this can contribute to:
• Fatty liver (MASLD)
• Prediabetes and diabetes
• High triglycerides
• Weight gain around the waist
• Increased risk of heart disease

The good news? Insulin resistance is often reversible.

Start with:
✅ Strength training 2–3 times/week
✅ Daily walking after meals
✅ More protein and fiber in meals
✅ Better sleep
✅ Less ultra-processed food and sugary drinks

Many people focus on detoxing the liver. The real goal is improving metabolic health.

Share it with someone who is trying to understand fatty liver.

Medicine is my profession. Service is my purpose.

Every day as a surgeon, I am privileged to heal individuals. Through Pranmanbhav Trust, I am blessed with the opportunity to serve society beyond the walls of the hospital.

While medicine allows me to save lives, social service allows me to touch hearts, inspire hope, and strengthen our community. Together, they remind me that true healing is not only about treating disease—it is about serving humanity with compassion, dignity, and love.

I extend my heartfelt gratitude to every volunteer, donor, devotee, and well-wisher who made our Ratha Yatra Seva a meaningful success. Your selfless contributions transformed this celebration into a beautiful expression of unity, faith, and compassion.

May Lord Jagannath continue to guide us on the path of selfless service, and may we always remain instruments of His divine grace.

Jai Jagannath! 🙏

Transplant care is never the work of one speciality alone. It is built through clinical judgement, pathology insight, surgical planning, and coordinated decision-making.

Grateful to be part of the CME cm Workshop on Transplant Pathology at KIMS Medical College, Bhubaneswar, where I had the opportunity to speak on liver transplantation.

A special thanks to Dr. Preetam Nath, Chairperson of the session “Integrating Clinical Insight into Liver Transplantation,” and to the organising team from the Department of Pathology for creating a thoughtful academic platform.

Conversations like these matter because better transplant outcomes begin much before the operation — with early understanding, precise diagnosis, and strong collaboration between teams.

A diagnosis changes your life. It doesn’t have to reduce it.

When Alexander Zverev lifted the French Open trophy, the world celebrated a Grand Slam champion. I saw something else—a reminder that living with a chronic condition and living with ambition can exist together.

In my practice, I meet many young patients with chronic pancreatitis, pancreatic stones and diabetes caused by pancreatic damage (Type 3c Diabetes/FCPD). Along with treatment, many carry another burden—the fear that their future has suddenly become smaller.

It doesn’t have to.

Every condition comes with its own challenges. Type 1 Diabetes and Type 3c Diabetes are different diseases, but they share one important truth: the diagnosis is not the finish line.

The right treatment, regular follow-up, good nutrition and consistent self-care can help you build the life you want.

Your condition deserves attention.

Your dreams still deserve space.

Share this with a young person who needs this reminder today.

People often see the operation.
Very few see the journey that made the operation possible.

Every surgeon carries years of learning, mentorship, discipline, and countless moments of self-doubt before earning the privilege of operating on another human being.

( Dr Soumen Roy Bhubaneswar, GI surgeon Bhubaneswar, liver transplant surgeon Odisha, HPB surgeon India, surgeon life, becoming a surgeon, Doctor’s Day, white coat journey, Apollo Hospitals Bhubaneswar, surgeon training India)

Every institution shaped me differently.

From learning the fundamentals at SCB Medical College, refining surgical thinking at PGIMER and AIIMS, to expanding my perspective through international liver transplant training—every teacher, colleague, patient, and operation became a classroom.

The greatest lesson, however, came from patients. They remind me every day that medicine is as much about humility as it is about skill.

I hope this conversation reaches not only aspiring doctors, but also every patient and family who places their trust in us.

The white coat isn’t a destination. It’s a lifelong promise to keep learning, keep improving, and keep showing up when someone needs you most.
