I've been seeing Dr. Chandrashekhar for my heart condition for over eight years now. It's the consistency that matters. He remembers the details from my last visit, asks about my family, and never rushes the appointment, even when the clinic is busy. After my bypass, his team checked in regularly. He doesn't chase every new trend, but his approach is solid and proven. You build trust with a doctor over time, and with him, it's never been in question. He's just a steady hand, which is what you need for something as serious as this.
Needed a valve replacement. Researched surgeons, chose Dr. Chandrashekhar at Nanavati. The consultation was direct, no sugar-coating. He explained the procedure, the risks, the recovery timeline clearly. Surgery went as planned. Follow-up was systematic. The hospital parking is always a hassle, but that's not on him. He did his job, I'm recovering well. That's what I paid for.
I was so scared when they said I needed heart surgery. My daughter found Dr. Chandrashekhar. In our first meeting, he spoke so gently and drew little diagrams for me on his notepad. He answered all my silly questions without making me feel foolish. The day of the operation, he patted my hand before they took me in. It meant a lot. The care was very good, and I'm feeling much stronger now. He has a very kind way about him.
Wow, what a difference! I had this nagging chest pain for months, and my local doctor just kept adjusting my meds. Saw Dr. Chandrashekhar, and within two weeks he had me scheduled for a stent procedure. The whole team was fantastic! I was walking the next day, and the pain is just... gone. I feel like I got my life back. Seriously, if you're hesitating, just go see him. Best decision I ever made.
