Patient Experience
I was so scared going in for my first check-up in years. Dr. Sadalge just had this calm way about him that made me feel like it was okay. He explained everything without making me feel dumb, and by the end, I was actually relieved. The wait was a little long, but honestly, it was worth it for how he put my mind at ease.
My father was admitted with stomach issues, and we were all worried. Dr. Sadalge was the one who actually took the time to pull us aside in the hallway and draw a simple diagram on a notepad to show us what was happening. He didn't just talk to the patient; he talked to the family. He gave us his direct number for updates, which meant the world when you're sitting in a waiting room. We felt included, not just tolerated.
Saw Dr. Sadalge at Lilavati for a persistent cough. Straight to the point, clear advice, got the meds I needed. No fuss. Good doctor.
I'd been feeling run-down for months, just off. My usual doc retired, so I booked with Dr. Sadalge on a friend's say-so. The clinic was busy, parking was a nightmare, and I almost cancelled. He listened to my whole rambling history, asked a few sharp questions I hadn't considered, and ordered two specific tests my old doctor never had. Turns out it was a simple vitamin deficiency, easily fixed. The whole experience wasn't glamorousit was a crowded Mumbai hospitalbut he was the first person in a long time who actually connected the dots instead of just handing me a multivitamin and sending me on my way.
