Dr. Hozefa Lokhandwala Reviews

My mother, 82, was admitted with severe abdominal pain. We were all scared. Dr. Lokhandwala came to see her late in the evening, after his rounds. He sat with me and my brother in the family room and drew a simple diagram on a notepad to explain what he thought was happening with her gallbladder. He didn't rush us. He answered every one of our worried questions, even the silly ones. The waiting area was crowded and we had to stand, but he made us feel like we were his only concern. Because of his clear explanation, we felt confident agreeing to the procedure. She's home now, recovering well. We felt heard.

My husband had a persistent fever that wouldn't break. We saw Dr. Lokhandwala at Apollo. He was direct. He listened, asked specific questions, ordered the right tests, and diagnosed a kidney infection we hadn't even considered. No fluff, just clear steps. The pharmacy line was long that day, but his instructions were so straightforward there was no confusion. Treatment started immediately. He called himself the next afternoon with the final culture results to adjust the antibiotic. It was efficient and effective. The fever broke within 36 hours.

Our son, Rohan, is 7 and terrified of doctors. He had a bad stomach bug and was getting dehydrated. Dr. Lokhandwala was so gentle with him. He spoke softly, first to Rohan, not just to us. He explained the IV needle in a way a child could understand, calling it a 'special straw for medicine'. He waited, never pushing. He got down to Rohan's eye level. It made all the difference—Rohan stopped crying and let him help. As parents, seeing that kindness while our child was sick meant more than any medicine. We left feeling deeply cared for.

Wow, what a difference! I brought my dad in after his GP was stumped by some weird symptoms. Dr. Lokhandwala connected dots everyone else missed. He has this calm energy that just makes you feel like 'okay, we can handle this.' He figured out it was a rare reaction to a new medication. The relief was instant! He high-fived my dad when he explained the fix. The hospital parking was a nightmare that morning, but honestly, after that consultation, I didn't even care. Dad is back to his old self, joking around. This doctor really knows his stuff.
