Dr. Sunil Furtado is the best thing that could have happened to us when a neuro problem hit my husband. My family and I would recommend him highly for the below experience we have had with him -
* Dr. Furtado is highly approachable at all times in many modes of communication which takes away a big part of the anxiety.
* He took time to explain the problem, possible next steps and the reason for picking the course of action he did.
* Very friendly with patients and demonstrates high levels of patience with questions.
* *** ******* ******* *** ********** (which we were confident about based on what he had heard about him from others).
* Even when he had to be out of station, he left the patient in the safe hands of his colleagues. There was continuity in our conversation with his team doctors too when Dr. Furtado wasn’t around.
* When the patient had to travel outside the country after surgery, he gave us ample precautionary measures and educated us on different drug restrictions in other countries. Highly engaged even after the surgery.
* Way more valuable treatment / service compared to the money we had to pay!

We had a fantastic experience with Dr.Sunil. Dr.Sunil not only performed a great brain coiling procedure on my mother, he did make sure that the family of the patient knew about the kind of procedure that are planning, the advantages, risks involved before the surgery. My mother recovered very fast thanks to the great surgery and an equally good post surgical care.. one thing that stood out about Dr.Sunil is that he is very approachable and he would always try and give clarity about the patients progress.
I would strongly recommend the doctor to any body who requires treatment in neurology or neurosciences.

Dr Sunil is a wonderful person. I was absolutely thrilled by his approach and for a moment forgot about my illness. He has a great way with patient. Very thorough with his investigation and diagnosis. He truly cares for the patient and every patient would feel comfortable with him immediately. He is someone who doesn't care about money - didn't even take the fee - but deeply interested in caring for the patient. I am delighted to appraise him and would recommend him anybody. May God bless him and his kind service.

When my dad had a stroke and a failed attempt at stenting due to some of his health related complications, of the four doctor's I met for opinions on future course of action, all four had a common name in their list of recommendations. It was Dr Furtado. I met him without the patient first with just all reports and supporting documents. I was very tensed and confused. Doctor was kind enough to put me at ease and Run through the entire procedure including all the possible risk factors. It was a complicated surgery due to my dad's other health issues but went on well and he was discharged within a week. We were really blessed to have found Dr Sunil Furtado to conduct this procedure.
