My case was a real puzzle for a while. I'd been to a few doctors before landing at Nanavati Max, and honestly, I was getting pretty scared. Dr. Yajuvendra didn't rush. He sat with my thick file, asked my family a bunch of questions we hadn't been asked before, and pieced it together. The transplant was the big fight, but figuring out exactly *what* we were fighting was half the battle. I'm here because he solved that puzzle first.
I needed a transplant, but my situation was considered pretty straightforward. Dr. Yajuvendra explained it all without making me feel like my case was 'simple' or unimportant. The whole process from admission to discharge felt like a well-oiled machine. There were no big surprises, just a clear plan that we followed. Sometimes, boring is good, and this was the best kind of boring.
Look, the parking at Nanavati Max is always a bit of a hunt. But once you're inside, it's a different world. The BMT unit nurses were angels—they remembered my kid's name and would ask about his school. Even the cleaning staff smiled. Dr. Yajuvendra's team runs a tight ship, but it's a kind one. The environment made a scary time feel manageable.
What I'll remember most is how Dr. Yajuvendra talked to me. Not at me. Before the transplant, I was a nervous wreck. He pulled up a chair, put my scans on the screen, and just said, 'Okay, let's walk through what a normal day after the procedure will look like.' No sugar-coating, but no doom and gloom either. Just a calm, clear human being who made me feel like I was in the room with a partner, not just a brilliant doctor.
