Patient Experience
You know how some doctors can make you feel like you're just a chart? Dr. Bhambhani isn't like that. When I came in with a bad stomach bug, I was feeling pretty miserable. He had this calm way about him that immediately put me at ease. He didn't just prescribe medicine; he asked about my diet, my stress levels, and gave practical advice. He remembered small details from my last visit, too. It felt like talking to a very knowledgeable, caring friend.
Had my gallbladder out with Dr. Bhushan at Lilavati. The first couple days were rough, I won't lie, but his team had a clear plan for the pain that actually worked. He checked on me every morning, adjusted things when I needed it, and I felt like I was in control of the recovery, not just waiting for it to be over. Back to my normal routine much faster than I thought.
My mother was admitted under Dr. Kirti Bhushan's care. What stood out for us was how he took the time to explain everything to me and my brother, in simple terms, every single day. Even when things were busy, he'd find a minute to update us. He never made us feel like we were bothering him with questions. That meant the world to us while she was getting better.
Saw Dr. Bhushan for a stubborn infection. He's direct, got to the point, and prescribed what I needed. No fluff, which I appreciate. Fixed me up. Good doctor.
Had to get a small cyst removed from my back. Honestly, I was more nervous about the hospital process than the actual procedure. Dr. Katna's team made it so straightforward. The whole thing, from check-in to walking out, took less than two hours. The local anesthetic worked perfectly, I felt nothing, and the stitches were so neat they've already healed almost invisibly. It was exactly what you hope for with something routine.
I'd been putting off this hernia repair for ages, just dreading the whole hospital process. From the first consult, Dr. Bhushan had a calm way about him that cut through my anxiety. He drew a little diagram on his notepad to show me exactly what he'd do. The day of surgery at Lilavati, I was nervous, but he cracked a small joke right before they wheeled me in that actually made me smile. The follow-up was thoroughhe even noticed a bit of redness I thought was nothing and gave me a cream for it. It felt like he was seeing the whole picture, not just the incision.
I'd been to a couple of doctors about this nagging fatigue and stomach pain, and everyone just said it was stress. Dr. Dharmadikari at Lilavati was different. He actually listened, asked a ton of questions I hadn't been asked before, and ordered some specific tests. Turns out it was a tricky vitamin deficiency causing the issues, not just 'stress.' He explained it all on a notepad, drawing little diagrams. I finally feel like myself again.
Had to get a small cyst removed from my back. Honestly, I was more nervous about the hospital experience than the procedure itself. But Dr. Dharmadikari made it so straightforward. The whole thing at Lilavati was over in what felt like an hour. The injection pinched a bit, but that was the worst of it. He checked in the next day himself, which I really didn't expect. It healed up perfectly, no fuss.
Parking at Lilavati is always a bit of a mission, I won't lie. But once you're inside, it's calm. What stood out for me was how the nurse at the front desk remembered my name from my last visit a year ago, and the person who took my blood samples was really gentleI usually faint, but I didn't this time. Dr. Dharmadikari's clinic just seems to run smoothly; everyone knows what they're doing and it doesn't feel chaotic.
Look, I'm not great with doctors. I get awkward and forget my questions. Dr. Dharmadikari has this way of just chatting with you like a normal person. He sat down, didn't rush me, and somehow got me to explain what was really worrying me. He didn't use a lot of medical jargon, just plain talk. I left feeling heard, not just processed. That means a lot when you're feeling vulnerable.
I'd been to three other doctors about this constant fatigue and stomach pain. Everyone said it was stress. Dr. Nair was the first one who actually sat and listened, really listened, to everything I was saying. She ordered a few different tests the others hadn't thought of. Turns out it was a pretty rare type of celiac disease. It wasn't a quick fix, but finally having a real answer and a plan made all the difference. She just didn't give up.
Had to get my gallbladder out. Honestly, I was nervous at firstsurgery is surgery. But Dr. Nair explained the whole laparoscopic process in simple terms, drew a little diagram on her notepad. The procedure itself was straightforward, just like she said. I was home the next day, and the recovery was much easier than I'd built up in my head. Sometimes, simple and smooth is exactly what you need.
The hospital itself is nice, but what stood out was the team. From the front desk who helped when I forgot my paperwork, to the nurse who saw I was anxious and just talked to me about cricket for five minutes before Dr. Nair came in. It felt coordinated, like everyone was on the same page. Even the guy who brought the meal tray was cheerful. It doesn't feel like a factory; people actually look at you.
My 10-year-old was terrified of doctors. Dr. Nair didn't just talk to me; she got down to his level, asked him about his school project on rockets, and let him listen to his own heartbeat with the stethoscope first. By the end, he was showing her how his toy spaceship worked. She has this calm, patient way about her that just puts you at ease, no matter your age. We left feeling heard, not hurried.
I'd been to three other doctors for this nagging abdominal pain. Scans were clear, but I was still in discomfort. Dr. Prashant Mullerpatan actually sat and traced my entire history over the last year. He asked about a trip I'd almost forgotten mentioning. That led him to suspect a parasitic infection the standard tests missed. He was right. It wasn't flashy, just really thorough thinking when others had given up.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but the whole thing was so straightforward. Dr. Mullerpatan explained each step in the clinic room itselfwhat he'd do, how long it would take, what the scar might look like. The procedure itself was quick, and he checked in the next day. Sometimes simple things going right are a huge relief.
The waiting area at Lilavati was busy, I had to wait a bit past my slot. But the nurses at the reception were really on it, keeping people informed. Once I was in, the assistant with Dr. Mullerpatan was greatcalm, efficient, and got all the vitals done without any fuss. It made a long visit feel less chaotic.
What stuck with me was how Dr. Mullerpatan talks to you. He doesn't rush. After my surgery, he pulled up a stool, looked me in the eye, and drew the procedure on a notepad for my son to understand. He asked how I was sleeping. It felt like he was talking to a person, not just a patient.
I'd been to three other doctors for this nagging abdominal pain and fatigue. Everyone said it was stress. Dr. Katna was the first one who actually sat and listened, really listened, to the whole timeline. He ordered a specific test the others hadn't, and it turned out to be a tricky gallbladder issue that wasn't showing up on standard scans. He explained it in a way that finally made sense. I'm just relieved someone figured it out.
At my age, hospital visits can be quite unsettling. Dr. Shah has a way of making you feel heard and comfortable. He explained my condition in simple terms and never rushed me. The follow-up care from his team at Lilavati was also very good.
