Patient Experience
Had my cataract surgery with Dr. Nikhil last week. The first day was rough, I won't lie, but his team had a clear plan for the pain meds that actually worked. Follow-up was smooth, and he was straight with me about what to expect each day. Vision's clearing up now, way better than the blur I was dealing with.
As a senior citizen, one worries about these procedures. Dr. Nikhil was very reassuring. He explained my glaucoma treatment in simple terms and never made me feel rushed. The clinic at Nanavati was comfortable, and the staff were kind. My sight is stable, and for that, I am very thankful.
Needed a second opinion on some floaters. Got in to see Dr. Nikhil. He was direct, checked everything thoroughly, and told me it was nothing serious. No sugar-coating, no unnecessary tests. Exactly what I wanted.
I'd been putting off dealing with my deteriorating vision for years, honestly just scared. From the first consult, Dr. Nikhil mapped out the whole journey—the diagnosis, the laser procedure option, the recovery. The day of, I was nervous, but he cracked a joke about the eye drops that actually made me laugh. The procedure itself was quick, and the nurse gave my wife updates while I was in there. Now, reading street signs from across the road feels like a little victory every day. It wasn't just a medical fix; it felt like getting a piece of my independence back.
