Visited For Cholecystectomy

I underwent a Cholecystectomy surgery during my first trimester of pregnancy. Dr Mahesh very clearly highlighted the risks associated but at the same time gave us the much needed confidence and support to sail through the surgery successfully. The moment you speak to Dr Mahesh, his calmness makes you feel being in safe hands. His approach to treatment is very different (for good). Not only the sugery was successfully done with my and my babies condition in mind , my recovery was also very smooth and quick . We would highly recommend Dr.Mahesh.
Visited For GERD
Happy with: Explanation of the health issue
Dr.Mahesh spent more time on educating me on preventive measures and explaining the root cause of the problem rather just providing medicines . Listens to the problem and respond with proper health advises and performs appropriate diagnosis. He is more focused on providing permanent fixes which is sustainable for long time , overall a nice experience and great Doctor . What I liked most during the session is he took 10 min of class explaining the digestive system 😊 reminded me of my college professors 😜
