Bipin K. Jadav was born on the 21st of January 1944 to Khimjibhai and Ratenben Jadav in Broch, India. He grew up in India alongside his brothers Gunvant, Vijay, Mahendra, Rajendra, and his sister Kashmira. As a young man, Bipin had wanted to be a pilot, but ended up going to school to pursue a medical degree. In 1964, he relocated to the UK to pursue a postgraduate degree. He returned to Ahmedabad for the birth of his first son, Tapan, with his wife Hansa.
On the 9th of October 1969, Bipin graduated from Gujarat University with Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery degrees. He returned to the UK to continue his studies and pursue his residency in anesthesia. His first wife, Hansa, also a doctor, started a practice in the US, but unexpectedly passed away in 1974 while living in New York City.
Bipin met Melody shortly after the tragedy and were married in 1976. Melody adopted Bipin’s first son, Tapan, and together they welcomed their other two children; Rajkumar in 1978 and Anjalee in 1981.
The Jadav family moved from New Jersey to Globe, Arizona in 1979. Bipin practiced medicine there for a short while before moving to Chandler, Arizona in 1982. Bipin opened his own practice in Chandler and practiced family medicine for over 25 years. He was devoted to medicine and went above and beyond to help his patients. After his retirement, he proudly passed on his practice to his son, Tapan, who also became a doctor. His son, Raj, had a successful computer business in the same building. Bipin was devoted to his family during his lifetime, and was proud of his children’s many accomplishments.
Bipin loved watching Phoenix Suns basketball games, and enjoyed bringing his family to games and introducing them to the various players and coaches that he knew. He also was an exceptional cook; not only was his Indian cooking phenomenal, but he also loved grilling up chicken skewers and Kobe burgers. Bipin loved to travel with his family all over the world and would take them on many family vacations, and enjoyed Bollywood movies.
He was a cancer survivor, having beaten cancer in 2011. He loved his wife, his children, and his grandchildren and shared many memories with them. On July 18th, 2018 he was baptized and became a member of Foothills Community Church.
Bipin’s first son, Tapan, passed away in 2021, and his second son, Raj, passed in 2023. He was deeply affected by the loss of his two sons and was comforted by the thought of eventually reuniting with them in Heaven.
Bipin is survived by his wife, Melody; his siblings Gunvant, Vijay, Mahendra, Rajendra, and Kashmira; his daughter, Anjalee; and his grandchildren, Elissa and Brandon, as well as countless other family, friends, and patients. He is missed dearly.
A service for Bipin will be held at Foothills Community Church, 700 S. Hamilton St., Chandler, AZ 85225 on Sunday, August 25th at 4:00PM.
