Patient Experience
I'd been to three other doctors for this nagging stomach pain and fatigue. Everyone said it was stress. Dr. Baviskar was the first one who actually sat and listened to my whole history, even the bits I thought were irrelevant. He ordered a specific test the others hadn't, and it turned out to be a tricky parasite. I was so relieved to finally have a real answer and a treatment plan that worked.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Baviskar explained everything so simply in the clinic. The day of the procedure at Lilavati was straightforward. The team was efficient, he checked in right before, and it was over before I knew it. Recovery was exactly as he said it would be. Sometimes simple and smooth is exactly what you need.
The hospital itself is nice, but what stood out was the team. My dad was admitted, and I was a wreck. The nurse at the front desk saw me looking lost and walked me to the ward. Dr. Baviskar's assistant remembered my name each time I called, which seems small but meant a lot. It felt less like a machine and more like people actually working together.
What I'll remember most is how he talked to my mother. She's older and gets flustered. He didn't rush her. He pulled up a chair, looked her in the eye, and explained her arthritis options using terms she understood, even drawing a little diagram on his notepad. He treated her with a kindness and respect that went beyond just medicine.
