My case was complicated—other doctors were pretty stumped. Dr. Mukesh at Nanavati Max didn't rush. He actually sat with my old scans for ages, called in a colleague for a second opinion, and laid out a transplant plan that finally made sense. It wasn't a simple fix, but he was straight with us about every step.
I needed a fairly standard stem cell harvest. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Mukesh made it feel routine. He explained it all in simple terms, the team knew their stuff, and the whole thing was over quicker than I expected. It just went... smoothly. No drama.
Look, the parking at Nanavati Max is always a bit of a hunt. But once you're inside, it helps that the BMT unit staff are so on it. The nurses remembered my name, the cleaner always smiled, and the dietician checked in every day. It's the little things that make a tough stay bearable.
What stuck with me was how Dr. Mukesh talks to you. He doesn't just talk at you. Before my transplant, I had a million fears. He pulled up a chair, let me get them all out, and answered without any medical jargon. Felt like he was talking to a person, not just a patient.
