Doctor: Dr. Vijay Deshmukh Hospital: Nanavati Max Hospital

Needed a bypass. My schedule is insane, so I needed a surgeon who was direct and got things done. Dr. Vijay explained the procedure clearly, no fluff. Surgery went smoothly, recovery was on track. Back at my desk in less time than I expected. Nanavati's facilities are good, but it was his efficiency that made the difference.

Doctor: Dr. Vijay Deshmukh Hospital: Nanavati Max Hospital

I was terrified. Never had surgery before, and the word 'cardiac' just made my heart race more. From the first meeting, Dr. Vijay was different. He actually sat down, looked me in the eye, and drew a simple diagram of what he was going to do. He said 'we'll get through this' and I believed him. The whole team at Nanavati was kind, but his calm confidence is what got me into that operating room without a panic attack. I'm home now and just so relieved.

Doctor: Dr. Vijay Deshmukh Hospital: Nanavati Max Hospital

Had a valve replacement with Dr. Vijay. Straight shooter. Told me what was wrong, what he was gonna do, and what to expect. No sugar-coating, which I appreciate. Surgery went fine. The hospital parking is always a nightmare, but that's not on him. Good doctor. Does his job well.

Doctor: Dr. Vijay Deshmukh Hospital: Nanavati Max Hospital

It started with just feeling run-down, then some chest tightness. My GP sent me to Nanavati and I met Dr. Vijay. What I remember most is how he listened. I brought a notepad full of questions—my wife made me—and he went through every single one without making me feel rushed. The day of surgery, he came to see me before they wheeled me in, cracked a small joke about my lucky socks. The procedure itself was complex, my wife said he came out to update her twice. Recovery had its ups and downs, a couple of rough nights, but his team was always responsive. Six months on, I'm gardening again. He gave me that back.
