Thought of leaving a detailed review as there’s a lot to say about Dr. Anita Soni – hope its helpful to anyone who is planning to visit (and I hope you all who read this please do visit Dr. Anita Soni). We have been consulting by Dr. Soni for last 8 years and she has been more than a doctor in real sense for our family. Our first son was born in 2014. We reached Dr. Soni during the end of 6 months of pregnancy after visiting multiple local and larger hospitals in Thane and Mumbai. At 6 months we were told by one of the biggest hospitals in Mumbai (specializing in only Paediatrics, Obstetrics & Gynaecology) that baby needs to be delivered) done immediately which India was probably not prepared in 2014. There were extreme complications and we reached Dr. Soni with the hope that she will do some wonders and she did more than anyone can even imagine during such a situation. With being asked to deliver in 6 months (that too C-section) to a normal delivery after full term (39 weeks) can only be achieved by Dr. Anita Soni. She is God sent to us. Only doctor that I know of pushes for a normal delivery – cares for every patient and babies like their family. My elder one is 8 and by god’s and Dr. Soni’s grace he is heartly and healthy. Since our treatment by Dr. Soni in 2014, my entire family, all my friends visit only Dr. Anita Soni and I can confidently say on behalf of everyone in my friends and family who got treated by Dr. Soni that every single family is extremely happy and feel exactly as I do. Our second baby got delivered by Dr. Soni in November 2022. Throughout the pregnancy, she guided us like a mentor with her expertise. While, Dr. Soni had met with an accident a few days prior to the day we got admitted – she has a fracture in the leg, broken ribs and face injury and yet she gave us more time than any other Doctor would ever do. While we were worried on who will do the delivery, Dr. Soni was there with us throughout and she did a normal delivery even as this time there were challenges and any other doctor would have lost the patience, Dr. Soni supported us and got the normal delivery done. Thank you so much Dr. Anita Soni!
Visited For Pregnancy Check Up
Happy with: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for money
When we moved to Mumbai about a year back, we discovered that we were about to have a new addition to the family. Being first timers, these were anxious and complicated times for us. Luckily a good friend suggested Dr. Soni to us and we have not looked back since.
She is a balance between professionalism, sharpness, skillfulness and care and friendliness. At first, her shorter consultation time did irk us, but then we realized that this changed as the Dr. realized that we were not out ‘window shopping’.
A gem of a person, Dr. Soni insists on going the natural way and may come across as rude or arrogant to some. She explained us the basics and made us realize that pregnancy is not a disease and has to be savored than dreaded. For those who want their Dr. to prescribe endless medications, tests, fancy fitness classes and pilates and zumbas, she might come as a ‘let down’. She insists on doing tasks at home, usual squats and chores to prepare the body and the mind. She is not one to pamper and soothe the softer souls who are looking for a shoulder to cry on. She suggests parents to ‘man-up’ and walks her talk.
Her integrity was clear when she advised us against stem cell bank which is largely a sham. The hospital staff and facilities were very good and we had no challenges at any given time. The Dr’s diagnosis, prescription and suggestions were top notch and we never ever had second thoughts.
On the day of delivery, she was leading from the front, taking the right decisions, standing on one foot, early at 5 AM and her team was engaged at 200% efficiency. Thanks to Dr. Soni, my wife had a smooth and normal delivery and she could resume normal work within 24 hours. We are thankful to her, like many others before and after us.
Visited For Vaginal Infection
Hoped for better: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueValue for moneyWait time
This was a terrible experience for me. Doctor was rude, impatient, did not explain the issue even when I directly asked questions. When I asked for some clarifications on the prescriptions, she asked me to read it properly. She was on the phone the whole time while doing an internal examination on me. It made me feel extremely uncomfortable. When I asked her about how i got the infection and that i don't have any usual symptoms , instead of explaining it, she said 'you have an infection now what can I do?' i was extremely taken aback by this weird unprofessional response. *** ***** ******* ***** ***** make you not want to talk about your gynae problems at all. They charge rs 1300 for less than 5 min of the doctors time. I was so put off by her behaviour that i did not go back to her for a clarification when the prescribed medicine wasn't available and instead spoke to her assistant. Would not recommend to anybody. You come out of her cabin feeling guilty for asking questions or having contracted whatever illness.
Visited For Maternal Care/ Checkup
Doctor just didn’t check anything and only recommend some tests. They took 1500 fees for these two tests. Plus we had to wait for almost 2 hours

Visited For Uterine Fibroids
Hoped for better: Explanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for moneyDoctor friendliness
We visited her to get some suggestion on Uterine fibroids Doctor was least interested in looking at the reports and was mostly on WhatsApp. She used all medical Jargons which we did not understood and was very loud. **** *** *** ** *** ****** ****** * **** ******** The treatment was also not well explained by herself. We will NOT recommend her.
Visited For Miscarriage
Happy with: Treatment satisfaction
I had miscarriage twice . I consulted Doctor through one of my family member who was treated by her before me. I was also suffering from severe vaginal infection. She first helped me diagnose the infection problem and then a proper treatment. She gave a good diet plan helped me to reduce the infection and also weight. After conceiving also I had continuous problems which could have led to miscarriage, but she was always available with the best treatment. She is a Gods Angel to us. She plays a very important role for having a beautiful and healthy baby. ME and my entire family is thankful to Dr. Anita Soni. *** ** *** **** *******
Visited For High-Risk Pregnancy Care
Happy with: Doctor friendlinessTreatment satisfactionValue for moneyExplanation of the health issue
Have visited lot of well known doctors pertaining to my PCOS issues and conception. At last settled with Dr. Soni and it was surely the best decision ever. She takes complete responsibly of your pregnancy and ensures safe delivery. If not for her probably would not have been a happy mother to my now 5 months old. All thanks to her and her team.
She attends to a lot of cases especially high risk and she is one of the most renowned in town, hence would appreciate if people can understand the reason behind the wait time. Would recommend to take prior appointments.

We consulted Dr. Soni for the birth of our first born. We were thrilled that we were under her care. Throughout the pregnancy she put us at ease gave us the best advise and routine to follow, and patiently answered all our doubts and questions. She also was the gynac who delivered our baby to us. She took the utmost care and made the whole process of childbirth so eventful and pleasant. She is easily the best gynac in the country (im sure world too) and we consider ourselves lucky to have been under her care.
Visited For Pregnancy Tests

It would be no exaggeration to say that Dr Anita Soni is the most competent gynaecologist in Mumbai.
I visited her during my pregnancy and she was like those few who know what to do, when to do and how to do it. She will always make you feel comfortable and explain the problem in easy language. She is perhaps among those very few Dr's who push a patient for normal delivery. For me she was not only a sincere advisor but also treated me like her little sister.
I would highly recommend her to everyone especially those trying for normal delivery. Also, her competence is unparalleled and she is a gem.
