Dr (Mrs) Savita Borle passed away this afternoon after enduring a stormy illness. She was 53.
Detected to have metastatic thyroid cancer a few months back, Mrs Borle faced her advanced cancer with remarkable poise and indomitable stoic. A dental surgeon by profession, she had been a faculty in Dental Surgery at MGIMS since the early eighties. Known to be a soft-spoken and kind-hearted woman, she went out of the way to help those in need- a virtue that earned her hundreds of admirers. She practised her craft well and drew a large number of patients who would see her help whenever they ran into dental problems.
She leaves behind Dr Rajiv Borle- her husband (a dental surgeon) and Firoze- her son (MGIMS Alumnus 2002 batch; a general surgeon).
