Dr. B.L. Aggarwal

Dr. B.L. Aggarwal is the Director of Non-Invasive Cardiology at BLK-Max Super Speciality Hospital in New Delhi, a cardiologist whose 35-year career has made him one of India's most respected authorities in advanced cardiac imaging, echocardiography and heart failure management. His programme at BLK-Max underpins the hospital's comprehensive cardiac service with world-class non-invasive diagnostic capability and a structured heart failure management framework. Dr. Aggarwal completed his MBBS, MD in General Medicine and DM in Cardiology, building a comprehensive clinical foundation before specialising in non-invasive cardiac diagnostics and imaging. His expertise in echocardiography – the cornerstone of non-invasive cardiac evaluation – encompasses two-dimensional, three-dimensional, Doppler, tissue Doppler imaging, strain analysis and transoesophageal echocardiography. He has performed and reported tens of thousands of echocardiographic studies over his career, developing exceptional diagnostic acuity from decades of accumulated experience. Heart failure management is a major clinical focus of his practice. He leads BLK-Max's heart failure clinic, providing comprehensive evaluation, optimised medical therapy and disease management programme support for patients with HFrEF, HFpEF and HFmrEF. His structured heart failure programme integrates dietetic counselling, medication optimisation, exercise prescription and patient education – reducing rehospitalisation rates and improving long-term outcomes. The programme's multidisciplinary framework ensures patients with complex comorbidities – diabetes, renal disease, pulmonary hypertension – receive coordinated specialist care. Cardiomyopathy – whether dilated, hypertrophic, restrictive or arrhythmogenic – is a specialised area of expertise. He uses advanced cardiac imaging including cardiac MRI interpretation, tissue characterisation and strain imaging to distinguish cardiomyopathy subtypes, guide therapy decisions and monitor treatment response. His precision in diagnosing rare and complex cardiomyopathies has made him a reference cardiologist for patients referred from across North India. Preventive cardiology is an equally important dimension of his practice. He manages patients with hypertension, dyslipidaemia, diabetes-related cardiovascular risk and subclinical coronary artery disease, working to prevent primary cardiac events through evidence-based risk factor modification. His cardiac rehabilitation programme supports recovery from myocardial infarction, bypass surgery and heart failure. Recognised with the BLK Chairman Award for Clinical Excellence and the CSI National Award, and a Fellow of the American College of Cardiology, Dr. B.L. Aggarwal at BLK-Max Super Speciality Hospital offers patients in Delhi NCR 35 years of non-invasive cardiology expertise, exceptional echocardiographic skill and a comprehensive approach to heart failure and preventive cardiac care.
