It is rare to find a surgeon who balances technical mastery with such thoughtful post-operative care.Compassionate Emotional SupportBeyond the physical surgery, Dr. Nikhil supported me through one of the hardest emotional hurdles a new mother can face: the guilt of being unable to breastfeed.

Dr. Nikhil Datar has been a guiding force throughout my pregnancy journey. We consulted him on my cousin’s recommendation, and from the very first day, we knew it was the right decision. He ensured that my entire pregnancy remained stressfree, patiently answering every question and creating a welcoming environment where I felt comfortable expressing my concerns.
What began as a doctor–patient relationship soon grew into something more personal. Dr. Datar explained every aspect with kindness and without judgment, making us feel as though we were speaking to a trusted family member. Unlike the anxiety many people feel when visiting doctors, with him we looked forward to each session. If there is one word that defines “relief,” it is the experience of consulting Dr. Datar.
These nine months passed quickly, and saying goodbye was bittersweet. Thanks to his guidance, I understood every change in my body without ever feeling overwhelmed. I am especially grateful for his support during delivery. We often met him at his own maternity clinic (Yashada), and also at Cloudnine where he practices. Since Yashada was undergoing renovation, my delivery happened at Cloudnine due to a prior arrangement facilitated by him. The delivery package was quite reasonable. Even in the delivery room, he kept the atmosphere light by playing a song! He ensured that I deliver safely and affordably, for which I remain deeply thankful!

I don’t even know where to begin when it comes to describing the immense relief Dr. Nikhil Datar has brought into my life. After a very difficult obstetric history—an ectopic pregnancy, a missed abortion, and most heartbreakingly, fetal demise at 32 weeks—I was terrified when I conceived again. I had almost lost all hope, and the fear was overwhelming. *** ******* *** ***** ****** *** ** ** *** ** *** **** ********* **** **** *****
I had heard wonderful things about him on Practo, and after a lot of research, I decided to make the 2.5-hour journey from Nerul to Malad to see him. And let me tell you, it was completely worth it. From our very first meeting, Dr. Datar’s positivity, warmth, and calm demeanor were exactly what I needed. He immediately put my fears at ease with his reassuring attitude and his clear, practical approach.
One of the things that stood out to me most was his willingness to create a support system for me. He immediately talked about setting up a network of trusted local doctors (his friends) so I wouldn’t have to make the long journey to see him every time something small came up. This was a huge relief for my anxiety—just knowing I had a team around me made a world of difference.
In that very first appointment, Dr. Datar also told me, in a matter-of-fact but reassuring way, that I would likely need to deliver early. Honestly, it was such a comforting thing to hear. After everything I’d been through, I never thought I would even get that far in a pregnancy. But he was clear, practical, and matter-of-fact about the entire situation, which gave me the confidence I desperately needed.
What made my experience even more seamless was the incredible support from his team. Dr. Khyati, was always available on call to answer any questions I had—no matter how small they seemed. It was such a relief to know that I had someone I could reach out to at any time, especially during moments of anxiety. Sneha, who handles the administrative side, was also amazing. She always made sure my appointments and scans were scheduled without a hitch, which took a lot of stress off my plate.
Another huge advantage of choosing Dr. Datar is how accessible he is. Unlike many doctors today, he is always available on WhatsApp, which was such a relief for me. Knowing that I could message him directly whenever I needed advice or reassurance was invaluable, and it made a huge difference in reducing my anxiety throughout the pregnancy.
There were some bumps along the way, as there are in every pregnancy, but Dr. Datar’s calm and nonchalant approach kept me grounded. He didn’t panic, and he didn’t let me panic. Every step of the way, I knew I was in capable hands, and he always made sure I understood my options. His positivity and the trust he instilled in me were invaluable in reducing my anxiety.
I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl at 35 weeks. True to his thorough and cautious approach, Dr Datar made sure my baby was placed in the NICU, just to be absolutely certain. I never imagined I would make it this far, but thanks to Dr. Datar’s expert guidance and unwavering support, I had the strength and peace of mind to get through this pregnancy. I’m forever grateful to him for making this possible.
If you’re someone with a complicated obstetric history, or if you’re just looking for an OB-GYN who truly cares and is a positive force in your journey, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Nikhil Datar. He’s not just a doctor, he’s a partner in your care—and that makes all the difference. I am forever grateful to him and his amazing team for giving me the confidence, support, and peace of mind I needed during this challenging time.
