Patient Experience
I'd been to a couple of doctors about this nagging fatigue and stomach pain, and everyone just said it was stress. Dr. Dharmadikari at Lilavati was different. He actually listened, asked a ton of questions I hadn't been asked before, and ordered some specific tests. Turns out it was a tricky vitamin deficiency causing the issues, not just 'stress.' He explained it all on a notepad, drawing little diagrams. I finally feel like myself again.
Had to get a small cyst removed from my back. Honestly, I was more nervous about the hospital experience than the procedure itself. But Dr. Dharmadikari made it so straightforward. The whole thing at Lilavati was over in what felt like an hour. The injection pinched a bit, but that was the worst of it. He checked in the next day himself, which I really didn't expect. It healed up perfectly, no fuss.
Parking at Lilavati is always a bit of a mission, I won't lie. But once you're inside, it's calm. What stood out for me was how the nurse at the front desk remembered my name from my last visit a year ago, and the person who took my blood samples was really gentleI usually faint, but I didn't this time. Dr. Dharmadikari's clinic just seems to run smoothly; everyone knows what they're doing and it doesn't feel chaotic.
Look, I'm not great with doctors. I get awkward and forget my questions. Dr. Dharmadikari has this way of just chatting with you like a normal person. He sat down, didn't rush me, and somehow got me to explain what was really worrying me. He didn't use a lot of medical jargon, just plain talk. I left feeling heard, not just processed. That means a lot when you're feeling vulnerable.
