Renowned neurosurgeon and former head of neurosurgery both at KGMU and SGPGI, Dr Devendra K Chhabra died in Lucknow on Tuesday morning after a long illness. He is survived by his wife Dr Apjit Kaur and son Dr Sarab Chhabra.

A master teacher and a disciplinarian who was warm and comforting to his patients, Dr Chhabra had invented a low-cost neurological equipment, the ‘Chhabra Shunt’, which continues to be an affordable option for the masses. He had also established the neurosurgery unit at Vivekanand Institute of Medical Sciences after retirement.

Students, colleagues and the entire medical community remembered Dr Chhabra on Tuesday as a man of mild mannerisms, eye for perfection, immense discipline and a fine taste for all things classic.

“He was our guru. He studied both MBBS and MS at KGMU and was the first to join neurosurgery training there, ” said current HoD Dr BK OJha.
