When my dad was diagnosed, our whole family was in a panic. Dr. Ganesh was the first doctor who actually sat us all down and explained things in a way we could understand, without sugarcoating it but also without making us feel hopeless. He always returned our calls, even late, and talked to my sister who lives abroad. The hospital parking is a nightmare, but honestly, after dealing with him, we felt like we finally had someone fighting with us.
As someone who runs two companies, time and clear outcomes are everything. Dr. Ganesh got straight to the point. He laid out a treatment plan for my condition that was efficient and evidence-based. No fluff, no wasted visits. I'm back to work and feeling good. He knows his stuff and respects your time.
Look, I was scared. Cancer's a scary word. Dr. Ganesh didn't mess around. He told me what we were dealing with, what the plan was, and what to expect. He's direct, which I appreciated. The chemo was rough, I won't lie, but he and his team managed the side effects well. I'm in remission now. Good doctor.
My journey with Dr. Ganesh started with a persistent stomach ache I kept ignoring. At Nanavati, after all the scans, he was the one who delivered the news. I remember his office had this very calm, soft light. He didn't rush me. He drew diagrams on a notepad, showing where the tumor was and how the surgery would work. There was one day post-op where I had a bad reaction to a medication; he was there at 8 PM adjusting everything. It's been a long road with follow-ups and scans, but he remembers small details about my life from visit to visit, which makes it feel personal, not just clinical. I trust him completely.
