Lilavati Hospital Reviews

I had my gallbladder removed by Dr. Desai last month. The first few days at home were rough, I won't lie. But he had a clear plan for the pain meds that actually worked. He called to check on me himself, which surprised me. He told me exactly what movements to avoid and when I could start walking more. It wasn't magic, it was just good, clear instructions. I'm back to my normal routine now, just taking it a bit slower.

Severe abdominal pain brought me to Lilavati. Dr. Sandeep Desai diagnosed appendicitis quickly. He explained the need for surgery in simple terms. The procedure was smooth. Post-op care was effective. Staff was competent. I was discharged on schedule. Follow-up was straightforward. He is a capable doctor.

I was so scared about needing an operation. Dr. Desai has a very calm way about him. He listened to all my worries and never made me feel rushed. Even when I asked the same question twice, he just smiled and explained again. The team at the hospital was kind, and he visited me every morning with a quiet word of encouragement. It made a difficult time much easier to bear.

After years of putting it off, I finally got my hernia fixed with Dr. Desai! What a relief! The man knows his stuff. The surgery was laparoscopic, so the scars are tiny. I was up and about the same day. The whole process, from consult to discharge, was just so efficient. I feel like a new person. Seriously, if you're hesitating, just go see him.

Had a persistent stomach issue for months. My schedule is packed, so I needed someone who wouldn't waste my time. Dr. Parulekar at Lilavati got straight to the point. She asked clear questions, ordered the right tests, and had a treatment plan ready at my follow-up. Solved the problem. Exactly what I needed.

I was quite nervous about some ongoing fatigue. Dr. Parulekar has a very calm way about her. She listened quietly, never made me feel rushed, and explained everything in simple terms. The hospital is big and a bit overwhelming, but her manner made the whole experience much easier to handle.

After weeks of feeling run down and getting nowhere with my local clinic, I saw Dr. Parulekar. What a difference! She actually figured it outit was a vitamin deficiency. I'm so relieved to finally have an answer and a simple fix. She's very knowledgeable and made me feel heard right away.

Our two-year-old, Rohan, had been running a fever that just wouldn't quit for five days. We were scared out of our minds, and the pediatrician we saw first just kept changing the antibiotics. At Lilavati, we waited a bit in the clinic, which was hard with a fussy toddler, but when Dr. Nagvekar came in, he just had this calm way about him. He actually sat on the floor to get on Rohan's level, listened to everything, and then explained it wasn't a simple infection but likely something called Kawasaki disease. He walked us through the whole treatment plan, answered my frantic questions at 10 PM on the phone, and never made us feel like a bother. Seeing Rohan's smile come back after the treatment was everything.

Severe abdominal pain. Went to Lilavati ER. They referred me to Dr. Vasant Nagvekar. He saw me quickly, asked specific questions, ordered the right scans. Diagnosed a complicated gallbladder issue. Explained the surgery options clearlylaparoscopic vs. open. Did the surgery two days later. Minimal pain. Discharged in three days. Follow-up was straightforward. No nonsense. Effective care.

I’ve been managing my blood pressure for years, but it became erratic recently. My previous doctor had retired, and I was quite anxious about finding someone new. A friend suggested Dr. Nagvekar. His clinic was busy, but he wasn’t rushed with me. He has a very quiet, listening manner. He reviewed all my old records, asked about my diet and stress, and adjusted my medication gently. He said, ‘Let’s try this and see how you feel next week.’ It felt like a partnership, not a lecture. My numbers are much better now, and I feel heard.

Wow, what a difference! I’d been feeling utterly drained for monthsno energy, weird aches. My local doc ran a few tests, said it was just ‘stress’ and to take vitamins. I pushed for a second opinion and got to see Dr. Nagvekar. He took one look at my file, asked a bunch of questions I hadn’t been asked before, and suspected a thyroid issue. Bingo! The blood work confirmed it. Started on medication and within a few weeks, I felt like a new person! I’m back at the gym, my brain fog is gone. So glad I didn’t just settle. Dr. Nagvekar actually figured it out!

I'd been to three different doctors for this weird, constant fatigue and low fever. Everyone said it was stress. Dr. Deshpande was the first one who actually sat me down, listened to my whole history again, and ordered a specific set of tests nobody else had thought of. Turned out it was a low-grade infection hiding in a place you wouldn't normally look. He figured it out when no one else could. I'm just glad he didn't give up.

Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was more nervous about the hospital process than the actual thing. Dr. Deshpande's team at Lilavati had it down to a science. In and out the same day. The procedure itself was quick, he explained each step as he went, and the stitches were so neat you can barely see the scar now. It was just... straightforward, which is exactly what you want.

Parking at Lilavati is always a bit of a hunt, I won't lie. But once you're inside, it makes sense. The place runs smoothly. What stood out for me was the nurse at the front desk. I was confused about which wing to go to, and she didn't just point; she walked me halfway there herself, chatting to put me at ease. That kind of thing makes a big difference when you're feeling anxious.

My teenage son had to see him, and he was being a typical grumpy, closed-off kid about it. Dr. Deshpande didn't push. He just talked to him like a person, cracked a silly joke about phone batteries, and got him to open up. He has this calm, no-rush way of talking that makes you feel like you're his only patient that day. My son actually said afterwards, 'He's alright.' High praise.

My 8-year-old son, Arjun, had been complaining about stomach pains for weeks. We'd seen a couple of doctors and were just getting more worried. The waiting area at Lilavati was busy, and we had to sit for a while, which made Arjun fidgety. But when Dr. Gangwani came in, he just had this calm way about him. He didn't talk over Arjun's head to me; he got down to his level and asked him to point to where it hurt. He explained everything to both of us in simple termswhat the tests were for, what he was looking for. He found it was a simple dietary issue, not the scary things I'd imagined. He gave Arjun a high-five on the way out. We left feeling like we finally had a plan, and more importantly, my son wasn't scared of doctors anymore.

Severe abdominal pain. Went to Lilavati ER. Dr. Gangwani was on duty. He assessed quickly, ordered a CT scan. Diagnosed appendicitis. Surgery was scheduled immediately. Procedure was smooth. Explained post-op care clearly. No unnecessary tests, no drama. Follow-up was efficient. Pain resolved. Back to work in two weeks. Good experience.

I was quite nervous about my procedure. I'm not one for hospitals, to be honest. Dr. Gangwani... he has a very gentle manner. He listened to all my little worries without making me feel silly. He took the time to draw a small diagram on his notepad to show me exactly what he would be doing. It wasn't rushed. Yes, the parking lot was very full that day, but once I was in his room, I felt at ease. Everything went just as he said it would. The nurses were kind, and he checked on me himself afterwards. It was a difficult time, but his care made it much easier to bear.

Wow, what a difference! I'd been dragging myself around for months with fatigue and just feeling 'off.' My local GP was stumped. A friend recommended Dr. Gangwani at Lilavati. From the first appointment, he was like a detective on a case! He asked questions I hadn't even thought of. Got some blood work done, and bamhe pinpointed it: a thyroid issue I didn't know I had. Started me on medication, and within a few weeks, my energy was back! I finally feel like myself again. Seriously, if you're feeling stuck with a health puzzle, go see him. He's brilliant!

Fixed my hernia. Doc was clear, surgery went smooth, recovery's on track. No fuss.
