About Asst. Prof. Dr. A. S. M. Firoz Mostafa (Manna)

Waking up five times a night breaks the spirit of an older man. An elderly retired clerk in the Chasara neighborhood tries to hide his bathroom struggles from his family. He assumes the frequent urges are just a normal part of aging. The constant trips to the washroom ruin his sleep completely. He feels too shy to discuss these private matters with his grown children. Then one morning he simply cannot pass any water at all. His lower abdomen swells up tightly. The pain becomes absolutely blinding. Asst Prof Dr A S M Firoz Mostafa goes by the nickname Manna among his colleagues. He steps in to solve these exact private emergencies. His medical foundation is incredibly strong. He graduated from the prestigious Dhaka Medical College. He joined the government health sector by passing the BCS exams. He pushed his surgical skills much further by earning an FCPS in Surgery and an MS in Urology. He consults sick patients at Popular Diagnostic Center Ltd in Narayangonj. Government hospital experience teaches a doctor how to handle extreme pain with a cool head. Dr Manna sees the sheer agony on the face of the old clerk. He immediately arranges to drain the trapped fluid to provide instant physical relief. He does not ask unnecessary questions while the patient is suffering. Once the old man can breathe easily again the real diagnosis begins. He orders a quick ultrasound to check the exact size of the prostate gland. Teaching medical students as an Assistant Professor shapes his daily communication style. He sits across from the embarrassed father and his worried son. He draws a small circle around a tube on his prescription pad. He explains how the swollen prostate pinches the urinary tract completely shut. He discusses the surgical options using very plain language. He tells them exactly how a modern procedure will shrink the gland without making large open cuts. Putting an elderly man with a blocked bladder into a vehicle heading to Dhaka is a terrible idea. The bumpy highway ride causes pure torture for someone in that condition. Having a DMC educated urology surgeon right in the city changes the whole experience. The family can arrange the necessary procedure locally in a clean environment. The old man can recover in a familiar bed with his grandchildren nearby. A full night of uninterrupted sleep brings quiet dignity back to an aging father.
