Had a persistent stomach issue for weeks. Dr. Kanakia saw me at Lilavati, got straight to the point, ordered the right tests, and had a clear treatment plan in one visit. No fluff, just solved it. Exactly what I needed with my schedule.

At my age, a hospital visit can be quite daunting. Dr. Swati Kanakia was very kind and took the time to explain everything about my medication in a way I could understand. The staff at Lilavati were also very helpful. I felt properly looked after.

Look, I was sick and needed a doctor. Friend recommended Dr. Kanakia. She listened, didn't rush me, figured out it was a bad infection. Prescription worked. Hospital's busy but she was good. Would go back if I needed to.

Doctor: Dr. Swati R. Kanakia Hospital: Lilavati Hospital

I went to Lilavati feeling really run down and anxiousthought it was something serious. The wait was long, I won't lie, but once I got in to see Dr. Kanakia, she changed the tone completely. She asked about everything, even stuff I thought was unrelated, and really pieced it together. Turns out it was stress and a vitamin deficiency, nothing scary. She spent a good 20 minutes just talking me through lifestyle changes. Left feeling relieved and with a practical plan, not just a prescription.
