Patient Experience
At my age, you get used to doctors rushing you. Dr. Shikarkhane was different. He sat with me in his office at Lilavati, explained everything about my medication in simple terms, and never made me feel like a bother. My daughter came with me, and he was just as kind to her. I left feeling understood, which is a rare thing.
I was so anxious before my appointment. First time seeing a specialist, didn't know what to expect. But Dr. Shikarkhane just had this calm way about him. He listened to all my worries, even the silly ones, and said "Let's figure this out together." That made all the difference. I'm just really relieved I found him.
Had a stubborn stomach issue for weeks. Saw Dr. Shikarkhane. He was straight to the point, ordered the right tests, and fixed me up. No fuss, no endless waiting. Good doctor.
Okay, so I'd been putting off this check-up forever. The parking at Lilavati was a nightmare, which put me in a bad mood. Then I met Dr. Shikarkhane. He remembered a small detail I'd mentioned in my online form, which surprised me. During the exam, he explained what he was doing step-by-step, and when the blood work came back, he called me himself to go over the results instead of having a nurse do it. It felt like he actually saw me as a person, not just the next file on his desk.
