Our son, Rohan, was diagnosed when he was just six. The world stopped. We were terrified, lost in a sea of medical terms we didn't understand. Dr. Atul sat with us in his office at Nanavati Max for what felt like an hour, drawing diagrams on a notepad, explaining the transplant process in words we could finally grasp. He never rushed us. He remembered Rohan's favorite cartoon character and would ask about it during rounds. There were hard days, scary nights in the ICU, but Dr. Atul's team was always there, always calm. Seeing Rohan's blood counts finally recover wasn't just a number on a chart; it was our little boy coming back to us. We owe Dr. Atul more than words can say.
Needed a bone marrow transplant. Researched specialists. Chose Dr. Atul at Nanavati Max. Consultation was clear, no sugar-coating. Explained the risks, the process, the timeline. The team was efficient. Communication was good—nurses always knew the plan. Had some nausea post-transplant, managed quickly. Parking at the hospital is a nightmare, but that's not the doctor's fault. Procedure went as expected. Follow-ups are strict, which I appreciate. I'm recovering. Dr. Atul knows his field. Would recommend.
It was a very difficult time for our family. My husband was the patient, and everything felt so uncertain. Dr. Atul has a very gentle way about him. He listens, you can see he's really thinking. He didn't make grand promises, just explained what they would try to do, step by step. The care on the BMT unit was very kind. Even when we had to wait a bit for a scheduled scan, someone always came to explain the delay. Now, my husband is home, getting stronger each day. We are so quietly grateful for Dr. Atul's careful approach and the dignity he showed us throughout.
Wow, what a journey! I was diagnosed with AML and told I needed a transplant, fast. I'm a pretty active guy, and the thought of being laid up was awful. From day one, Dr. Atul was like, 'Right, here's the plan. We're going to get you through this.' His energy was contagious! The team at Nanavati Max is fantastic—they even humored my terrible jokes. Yeah, the food could be better, and the transplant itself was no picnic, but man, it worked! My latest results are clean! I just saw Dr. Atul for a check-up, and we high-fived. I feel like I got my life back. Huge, huge thanks to him and everyone there!
