Dr. Saroj Kanti Mishra, the Ex-Director of Ispat General Hospital, SAIL, RSP passed away on 10th of October 2015. A man with vision and human values, Dr. Mishra will be remembered by his colleagues, friends and patients for a long time.An affable personality, Ispat General Hospital will remember him - for providing a platform in the hospital for research by its own faculty and international scientists in many areas of interest for our country particularly in malaria, for providing a group of young doctors in the form of post-graduate trainees(DNB trainees) in IGH and for the new Trauma Care Centre in IGH where he breathed his last. He also was the main architect of many other things that have been put to use after his tenure like the Liquid Oxygen supply and new OPD complex. What stood out in Dr. Saroj Mishra was his impeccable honesty and integrity apart from his strong commitments to his patients and friends.
For the last 14 months he was diagnosed to have GBM and was treated in the Tata Cancer Centre in Kolkata and IGH. He was shifted to the ICU on 9th morning and passed away at 315 PM on 10th.
It has been a great loss to his family- a big one in any standard- with mother, wife, son, brothers and sisters and their respective families apart from the whole of Rourkela with his patients and friends from all hues in the society.
May this great soul rest in peace and may God help his immediate family members enough courage to bear the great loss.
