Dr. Kiran S. Coelho

For months, I just felt offtired, some weird pains, nothing that made sense. Saw a couple of doctors who said it was stress. Dr. Coelho was different. She actually listened to the whole confusing story, asked questions no one else had, and ordered a specific scan the others missed. Turns out it was a rare kind of abdominal issue. She explained it all in plain English, drew a little diagram on her notepad, and laid out a clear plan. I'm on the mend now, and honestly, I think she's the only one who would have figured it out.

I needed my gallbladder out, which was pretty straightforward, but I was still nervous. Dr. Coelho's team at Lilavati made it so simple. The whole process was explained step-by-step, no rushing. The surgery itself went fine, no surprises. Recovery was exactly what she said it would bea bit sore for a few days, then better. It's nice when things just go as planned. I was back to my normal routine much faster than I'd feared.

Look, the parking at Lilavati is always a bit of a hunt, I won't lie. But once you're inside, it's a different story. The front desk people remembered my name on my second visit, which was a nice touch. The nurses in Dr. Coelho's wing were really kind, especially when I was feeling anxious before a consultation. They offered water, made small talk to distract me. The place feels calm and clean, which matters more than you'd think when you're not feeling well.

What stuck with me about Dr. Coelho was how she talks to you. She doesn't just talk at you. During my follow-ups, she'd sit down, make eye contact, and really wait for me to answer. When I had a silly question about my medication, she didn't brush it off; she explained the 'why' behind it. She has this calm, direct way about her that makes you feel like you're in capable hands, not just being processed. It made a scary health situation feel manageable.
