Patient Experience
I've been seeing Dr. Chawla for my diabetes and high blood pressure for almost eight years now. What I appreciate most is that she remembers me, remembers my history, and never rushes. She's the same calm, thorough doctor she was at our first appointment. That consistency is hard to find. When my old reports go missing, she already knows the numbers. That kind of long-term care is what keeps me healthy.
Had my gallbladder out at Lilavati last month. The surgery itself is one thing, but the week after was rough. Dr. Chawla checked on me every single day, even on Sunday. She didn't just throw pills at me; she explained what the pain was from and how it would change each day. She adjusted my meds based on how I was actually feeling, not just a chart. Made a scary recovery feel manageable.
Needed a doctor for a bad stomach bug. Got an appointment with Dr. Chawla. She was direct, figured it out fast, gave clear instructions. Fixed me up. No fuss.
I was really nervous going to Lilavatiit's a big hospital, parking was a nightmare, and I just had this general feeling of being unwell for months. Dr. Chawla sat and actually listened to all my vague complaints without looking at the clock. She connected dots I didn't see, ordered the right tests, and it turned out to be a thyroid issue. She called me herself with the results to explain it all. The whole experience, from the anxiety in the waiting room to finally having an answer, was handled with such genuine care.
I'd been to three other doctors for this nagging stomach pain and fatigue. Everyone said it was stress. Dr. Bhave was the first one who actually sat and listened, really listened, to the whole timeline. He ordered a specific test the others hadn't even mentioned. Turned out to be a tricky parasite. It wasn't a quick fix, but having the right answer after months of feeling lost made all the difference.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but the whole thing was so straightforward. Dr. Bhave explained it in simple terms, the procedure itself was over in what felt like minutes, and the aftercare instructions were clear. I was back to my normal routine the next day, no fuss.
The parking at Lilavati is always a bit of a hunt, I won't lie. But once inside, it makes sense. The place runs smoothly. The front desk staff helped my elderly mother find a seat while I checked in, and the nurses in Dr. Bhave's section were really kind, even when they were clearly busy.
What I remember most is how Dr. Bhave talked to my teenage son. He didn't just address me, the parent. He looked my son in the eye, asked him questions directly, and explained things in a way a 15-year-old could grasp without feeling talked down to. That respect meant a lot to both of us.
I've been seeing Dr. Swami for my blood pressure and general health for over eight years now. She remembers the small thingsasks about my grandson by name, recalls my allergy to a specific medication. That consistency is what keeps me coming back to Lilavati. I don't feel like just another file on her desk. The hospital can be busy, and sometimes you wait a bit, but with her, you know you're in steady hands.
Had a persistent cough that wouldn't go away. Went to Dr. Archana Swami. She listened, checked me thoroughly, ordered the right tests. Diagnosis was clear, treatment worked. No fuss, no unnecessary drama. Felt better in a week. Would recommend.
I was quite nervous about some ongoing stomach issues I'd been having. Dr. Swami has such a calm way about her. She explained everything in simple terms, never made me feel rushed, and laid out a clear plan. I left feeling heard and, for the first time in months, hopeful that we could manage this. Her gentle approach made a difficult visit much easier.
I'd been feeling run-down for months. My usual doc retired, so I booked with Dr. Agarwal at Lilavati on a friend's suggestion. The wait was about 20 minutes, which I didn't mind. He listened to my whole historyreally listenedand didn't just jump to the easiest conclusion. He connected some dots I hadn't even thought to mention, suggested a few specific blood tests, and it turned out to be a simple vitamin deficiency. The whole process just felt thorough. He remembered my case at the follow-up, which you don't always get.
My family has been seeing Dr. Agarwal for over a decade now. She remembers details from years ago, which makes a real difference. The hospital can be busy, and sometimes you wait a bit, but once you're in her room, she gives you her full attention. She doesn't rush to change medications or order tests unless it's truly needed. That consistency is what keeps us coming back. You don't find that everywhere.
Had a persistent stomach issue. Went to Dr. Meenakshi Agarwal at Lilavati. She listened, asked clear questions, and laid out a straightforward plan. No fancy jargon, just a direct explanation of what she thought it was and what we should do. The treatment worked. I appreciate that she was honest about what to expect and how long it might take.
I was quite anxious about some ongoing health worries. Dr. Agarwal has a very calm way about her. She explained everything softly, made sure I understood, and never made me feel silly for my questions. The clinic itself is bright, which helped. I left feeling heard and, for the first time in a while, not so scared about managing things.
After months of feeling run-down and getting nowhere with other doctors, a friend insisted I see Dr. Agarwal. What a difference! She actually connected the dots between symptoms I thought were separate. Got a clear diagnosis and a treatment that started working within a week. I feel like myself again! The relief is incredible. Parking at Lilavati is always a hassle, but honestly, it was worth every minute of circling.
I was so scared going in for my first check-up in years. Dr. Ravishankar just had this calm way about him that made me feel like it was okay. He explained everything without making me feel stupid for being nervous. The hospital's huge and a bit overwhelming, but he made the actual appointment feel simple.
My father was admitted under Dr. Ravishankar's care last month. What stood out was how the doctor took time to explain things to us, the family, in the waiting area. He didn't just talk to the patient; he made sure we understood the treatment plan and what to expect. It took a lot of the panic out of the situation for all of us.
Saw Dr. Ravishankar for a persistent stomach issue. Got in, he listened, asked the right questions, ordered the needed tests. No fuss. Problem got sorted. What more do you want?
Fixed my hernia. Doc was clear, surgery went smooth, recovery's on track. No fuss.
