Dr. Mihir Bapat

In the year 2020, I was suffering from severe lower back pain and the pain shooted up to my right leg which affected my walking. Got my MRI done and reports mentioned extended slip disc.

I visited many doctors for opinions for which 2 well known Doctors from reputed hospitals immediately asked me to go for surgery.

At that point, Me at the age of 36, mother of a 3yrs old daughter, adventurous and love for marathons would never want to go through such a phase.

One of my best friend Jayesh Tadose recommended Dr. Mihir Bapat from Nanavati hospital as he has been undergoing his treatment.

I visited Nanavati hospital and met Dr. Mihir Bapat, he is such a wonderful and a friendly doctor. He explains in detail about the problem one is facing and also the treatment needed in a language easily understood by any layman.

Dr. Mihir started my treatment by giving me medicines and informed surgery is not required. Things should get sorted by medication. I had medication only for 3 weeks and reduce travelling.

To my luck, due to lockdown there were restrictions on transport so had stopped travelling to work.

I could repeat my MRI only after few months of lockdown relaxation and then showed my reports to Dr. Mihir. To my surprise, he informed that the extended slip disc had cured completely and I need to go slow on activities for a year and do yoga, exercise and walking alternate days.

Would like to add here, to me:-

1) Jayesh Tadose who recommended me to Dr. Bapat and 2) Dr. Mihir Bapat

Thank you both for been a saviour in my life.

Thank you Dr. Mihir Bapat for saving my spine. To help me get rid of surgery.

Thank you Jesus.

I am grateful. 🙏

Dr Mihir Bapat is very polite would first listen to patient problems understand the case history. Gave me a lot of courage I was completely distressed with the Pain I was undergoing from 2009 after undergoing Endoscopic Sugery by a different Doctor IN Suyog hospital in Juhu llnk Rd Mumbai

The Complete discharged report did not mention it was endoscopic. After several MRI n Spine X Ray Reports.by Other Spine surgeons . It came to my understanding in 2010 that my lumbar lower back bone had undergone under a knife and it was a major surgery. I was completely distressed for 14yrs l went under pain n stress because the surgery had restricted my routine daily moments. I had decided never to visit any Spine Doctor.

My Cardiologist who had known my cardiac problems from 2008 . I visited every year saw my pitiable conditions Recommended me Dr. Mihir Bapat in 2023 . Most of my days l lived in Goa. and traveled to mumbai to do routine blood test n Consult my Doctors. Who knew my history. It was so kind of Dr.Mihirs secretary to accommodate me on 20/12/23 for Consultation although all appointment s were full till end Jan 2024 . All his staff are really helpful in assistance to do all test n formalities n requirements .l would highly recommend all patients with Spine ailments to atleast pay a visit to Sir Dr. Mihir Bapat.

Since I am taking the consultation of Dr Mihir Bapat since last one decade and always returned as a satisfied customer , therefore this time also I consulted Dr Bapat, when there was severe pain in my right leg starting from spine to toes.

I spend sleep less nights because of pain in different areas of right leg.

He explained the issues in detail and referred to doctor Morwane for L5-S1 forTresforzminnzl.

He gives minimum medicines required and proper treatment needed. Great professional doctor .

VERY FEW DOCTORS TAKE THE EFFORT OF EXPLANING IN DETAIL THE MAIN REASON FOR ANY DISEASE .. ALTHOUGH THEY MAKE PROPER DIAGNOSIS AND GIVE PROPER TREATMENT..BUT IF THE PATIENT IS EXPLAINED IN DETAIL THE REASON FOR HIS OR HER DISCOMFORT.THEN NECESSARY PRACUTIONS CAN BE TAKEN FOR FUTURE...DR MIHIR BAPAT TOOK THE EXTRA EFFORT IN EXPLAINING THE PROBLEM.,,ITS TREATMENT & THE FUTURE STEPS TO AVOID A RELAPSE...HE EXPLAINED IN LANGUAGE WHICH A LADY UNDERSTANDS MORE EASILY..IN OUR CASE HE EXPLAINED WITH THE EXAMPLE OF A TAWA(HOT PAN) AND CHULA(GAS STOVE)...

Feedback for Dr. Mihir Bapat

I just wanted to write to you, Dr. Mihir Bapat a short note thanking you for your care and concern in doing Vertebroplasty on 20th.June.2018. We take nothing for granted in our lives – I have learned to appreciate every day for the miracle it is. That is why I did not take the surgery for granted. I did, however trust in your skill, your attitude and the warmth of your personality, and I was not wrong to do so.

You treated me with kindness & understanding & for that I am so grateful. It was obvious that you have a good heart, & I was blessed to have found you. Overall my health has improved & would just like to extend my appreciation to you & your Assistant, Dr. Arpit Upadhya & Dr. Bharat for this positive outcome. I am much happier now, that my Vertebro pain has drastically come down & I feel so much better now, can move around freely.

Once again thankyou very much for your time & expertise. I am greatful.

Yours Sincerely,

Jaya Mary Chettiar.
