Dr. Saroj Aggarwal


In 1973, Shri Nathji cataract developed rapidly in His eyes and the vision in his right eye almost gone. It was common knowledge that one eye of Dr. Radhakrishnan, the President of India, had been operated upon in India, at the AIIMS, and had been spoiled. Priya Nath could not afford to take such a risk with Shri Nathji. The right eye of Shri Nathji posed a problem for the surgeons because of the orange sign in it. They would either have to remove it during the operation or else have to cut around it. None of the eye surgeons appeared to have performed such an operation before.  Priya Nath then contacted Dr. Saroj Aggarwal to take her opinion. She was in America and was passing through New Delhi. Her words sounded cryptic to Priya Nath: “There are no guarantees in surgery.”

Dr. Aggarwal graduated from Nagpur University / Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College in 1958.  She then migrated to USA. She practiced as an ophthalmologist in Cleveland, OH. Her office is located at office located at 12000 McCracken Rd Ste 215, Cleveland, OH 44125.
