Had a gallbladder removal with Dr. Chulani last month. The surgery itself went fine, but honestly, the first few days after were rough. What really helped was how clear she was about the pain plan. She didn't just give pills; she explained what to expect each day and when to call. It made a scary recovery feel manageable. The nurses at Lilavati were great too, but her follow-up calls to check on my progress meant a lot.

Doctor: Dr. Varkha H. Chulani Hospital: Lilavati Hospital

I was so nervous going infirst time seeing a specialist, and I'd been putting it off. Dr. Chulani just has this calm way about her. She listened to all my (probably silly) worries without rushing me. By the end of the appointment, I felt like I had a clear plan and, more importantly, someone actually in my corner. Left feeling relieved, not scared.

Needed a doctor for a persistent stomach issue. Friend recommended Dr. Chulani. Got an appointment, waited a bit (like you do), but the consult was worth it. Straight talk, no sugar-coating, ordered the right tests. Fixed me up. Good doctor.

Doctor: Dr. Varkha H. Chulani Hospital: Lilavati Hospital

My story with Dr. Chulani started in the ER at Lilavati with awful abdominal pain. She was the consultant on call. What I remember most, besides the pain, was her sitting on the edge of the bed explaining what appendicitis was and why we needed to move fast. She made eye contact even though I was half out of it. Post-surgery, she visited every day, even on Sunday, just to see how I was doing and adjust meds. It wasn't just clinical; it felt like she was genuinely seeing *me* through the process. The parking lot was a nightmare for my family, but her care wasn't.
