Visited For Laparoscopic Hernial Repair
Happy with: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for money
Dr Gautam was referred to me by my cousin for my hernia pain. The very first interaction with Dr Gautam made me feel very comfortable though it was over the phone. Reason being, Dr Gautam. is very friendly and never made me feel like his patient. He asked in detail on what my concern was ( though it was over the phone, and though it was the first interaction).

Goutham sir has been a great support at all times. He had lot of patience to answer all my queries. Gave me enough time to understand the pros and cons of getting the surgery done. Explained clearly all the possible complications that can come due to the surgery and also assured to avoid them. Tried his maximum to avoid the surgery with various medications. But when the surgery was the only option to save my life he posted me for the same and made sure I lead a better life. For me it was a very hard decision to make to go under knife to resect my pancreas but this decision was made only with the trust that I had on Goutham sir. The most important thing a patient needs is to feel comfortable, have trust and confidence in their doctor and above all the belief that they are here to do only that is good for them. As stated above the belief on Goutham sir made me go ahead with the surgery. Trust me if Goutham sir is your surgeon then any troubles you face he is there to take care worry not!!!. Sir is always a text or phone call away if you need him even if it's late in d night.
