Patient Experience
I'd been to three other doctors about this constant fatigue and stomach pain. Everyone said it was stress. Dr. Joshi was the first one who actually sat and mapped out my symptoms on a notepad. He ordered a specific test the others hadn't even mentionedturns out it was a tricky parasite. He explained it all in a way that finally made sense. Felt like someone was actually listening.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but the whole thing was over so fast. Dr. Joshi talked me through each step as he did it, which really helped. The stitches were neat, healing was straightforward, and the follow-up was just a quick check-in call from his nurse. It was exactly what you hope a routine thing will be.
Parking at Lilavati was a nightmare that day, I won't lie. But once I got inside, the whole process was smooth. The front desk lady found my file quickly, and the nurse who took my vitals was really kindshe could tell I was anxious and just chatted about the weather to distract me. The place felt calm and clean, which matters more than you'd think when you're not feeling well.
What stuck with me about Dr. Joshi was how he talked to my elderly father. He didn't just talk to me. He pulled his chair up, looked him in the eye, and explained everything slowly, without any complicated words. He even drew a little diagram. My dad usually hates doctors, but he left saying, 'That was a good man.' That meant everything.
