Dr. Gupta, who passed away in October 2023, is remembered for her expertise in handling high-risk pregnancies and her relentless service to the communities of Eastern Uttar Pradesh and Bihar for over 24 years.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Dr. Gupta, alongside her husband, Dr. Manmohan Shyam, a Senior Critical Care Physician, played a critical role in saving countless lives. Despite the risks, they were among the first private healthcare professionals to provide essential services during the first and second waves of the pandemic. Tragically, while treating patients during a severe dengue outbreak in October 2023, Dr. Gupta contracted a rare form of the disease, leading to multi-organ failure, and she passed away in the line of duty.
Dr. Guptaās connection with Ladakh extended through her participation in a Super Speciality Medical Camp organized by Al Reza Health Care & Research Foundation, where she and her husband offered crucial medical care to underserved populations. Although plans were made for future services in the region, her untimely passing halted those efforts. She is survived by her daughter, Shivangi, aged 19.
