Dr. Vishal Pathania

10 Years, One Failed Surgery, and the ENT Who Finally Got It Right

I first came across Dr. Vishal Pathania several years ago by chance, while commuting between home and office. That association would eventually make a profound difference to my life.

I had previously undergone a septoplasty for a deviated nasal septum under Dr. K.K. Handa at Medanta, Gurgaon. My understanding is the procedure may have been performed by a junior colleague. Following that surgery, I was left with a 7.4 mm perforation in my nasal septum. I repeatedly sought help, but the problem remained unresolved.

For nearly 10 years, I struggled with the consequences. Breathing became increasingly difficult, my left nostril nearly blocked, with turbulent airflow, excessive mucus, and disturbed sleep. At 70, the prolonged difficulty was becoming distressing. Dr. Pathania suggested a CT scan of the PNS, which finally brought the problem into clear perspective.

Dr. Pathania advised another surgery. Understandably, I was apprehensive. ** ******** ******* *** **** ********** *** I had serious reservations. I had also consulted other reputed hospitals and ENT specialists, who suggested surgery including grafting options, but with no certainty of success.

What gave me confidence was Dr. Pathania’s approach: calm, patient, and reassuring. He explained the problem and procedure, answered even my most basic questions, and never made me feel rushed. I decided to trust him and underwent surgery at Artemis Hospital.

The procedure lasted about 2 hours 20 minutes. To my great relief, Dr. Pathania addressed the septal deviation and perforation, along with turbinate reduction. The outcome has been beyond what I hoped for. Today, I can breathe freely. The nasal obstruction and excessive mucus have improved dramatically, and I no longer experience drooling.

Most importantly, I now sleep peacefully through the night, rather than waking every couple of hours. After almost a decade of struggling, this feels like a new lease of life. What impressed me most was not just his surgical expertise, but his patience, humility, and patient centric approach: an unassuming doctor who gives his patients time, listens carefully, and explains without creating anxiety.

He has a strong focus on nasal and sinus disorders and endoscopic nasal surgery, including septoplasty, FESS, turbinate reduction, and other nasal procedures. Having gone through a difficult, prolonged ENT journey, I would sincerely recommend anyone with complicated nasal or sinus problems to consult Dr. Vishal Pathania.

I consider myself extremely fortunate our paths crossed.

Thank you, Dr. Pathania, for giving me back the simple ability to breathe freely and sleep peacefully. May God always keep you blessed. *
