Patient Stories for Dr. Shibal Bhartiya

I have been a patient of Dr Bhartiya for over three years now. I am now 85 and have been getting regular treatment from her for my Glaucoma since I returned to India from the Philippines in 2022.
In the Philippines I was under treatment for glaucoma for some 22 years and feel that I am adequately qualified to compare the treatment given by my ophthalmologists in the Philippines, in India (including at the Shroff Eye Centre and the Center for Sight in Gurgaon) and by Dr Bhartiya, who was working in Fortis Gurgaon when I first met her in December 2022.
The attention that Dr Bhartiya paid to my eye problems has been far superior to the attention that I got from my other doctors in the Philippines and in India. In her dealings with me she has shown a lot of patience and compassion in listening to my eye problems. She has also willingly provided me, after my appointments, the necessary follow up advice regarding my eye problems whenever that was needed.
During all these years I have also observed her patience and excellent crowd management skills when working under pressure. Even when there were many patients, I am particularly pleased to note that there was never any delay of more than 30 minutes in seeing me from my appointment time. Her management skills are well depicted in her ably managing not only the ophthalmology department but also other areas of her work such as for International Institute of Neuro and Spine and the Community Outreach and Wellness programs.
I am thus highly satisfied with the professional services that I am receiving from Dr Bhartiya and wish her a very successful career ahead.

Visited For Diabetic Retinopathy

A Life-Saving Turning Point in My Postpartum JourneyAs a Type 1 diabetic diagnosed at age ten, I have lived on insulin for over twenty years. Yet, nothing quite prepared me for the health challenges of the postpartum period. A few months after giving birth, I noticed a dark spot in my left eye and visited Dr Shibal. That visit changed everything.Upon examination, Dr Shibal discovered I had proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Instead of leaving us to navigate this terrifying diagnosis alone, she immediately sprang into action. She explained the causes and effects of the disease with complete clarity and fast-tracked me to a nearby eye care center for urgent PRP laser treatment.What sets Dr Shibal apart is her extraordinary, kind-hearted nature. Even though she is not the primary doctor performing the laser treatments, she has kept herself entirely in the loop. She even shared her personal phone number with me, providing a vital lifeline for those moments when panic strikes. She treats my eyes—and my peace of mind—with the utmost care and genuine concern.This diagnosis also brought a hard-hitting realization. Throughout my entire pregnancy and the decades before it, I consulted multiple gynecologists and endocrinologists. Not a single one ever mentioned getting my eyes checked, let alone undergoing a dilated eye examination. It was a shocking surprise to learn this disease had been progressing for years without a single specialist flagging it.I feel incredibly blessed that God guided us to Dr Shibal just in time. Thanks to her timely intervention and ongoing care, my vision is being saved.

Doctor was patient and explained everything in detail. The first test had false positives so she got the retest done FOC and prescribed only essential medicines. She is super confident in what she says which is assuring. Timings were managed well so no long wait time. Overall good experience and will recommend consulting her.
