Patient Experience
I was so scared going in for my first ever check-up. My hands were literally shaking. Dr. Karnik just talked to me like a normal person, explained everything in simple words, and by the end I felt silly for being so nervous. He didn't rush me at all. Honestly, just what I needed.
My father was admitted under Dr. Karnik's care last month. What stood out was how Dr. Karnik made time for us, the family. After his rounds, he'd find us in the waiting area and explain exactly what was happening in plain language, not medical jargon. He gave us his direct number and actually answered when we called, even late once. That meant the world when we were all so worried.
Saw Dr. Karnik for a persistent stomach issue. He's direct, no-nonsense, which I appreciate. Asked clear questions, ordered the right tests, fixed the problem. Waiting room was busy but his consultation was efficient. Good doctor.
I'd been feeling run-down for months, just off. My usual doc retired so I booked with Dr. Karnik at Lilavati on a friend's say-so. The hospital parking was a nightmare, I almost turned back. First, he listenedreally listenedto this long, rambling story about my fatigue and weird aches. He connected dots I hadn't, asked about my work stress, and suggested a few specific blood tests I'd never had before. Turns out it was a simple vitamin deficiency. The fix was easy, but getting someone to take the time to figure it out was the real thing. He remembered my name when I went for the follow-up, which surprised me.
