I am writing on behalf of my sister Kumud Bhatia, 58 years old & a long time Rheumatoid Arthritis patient.

For almost a decade, Kumud had deformed, painful knee joints & as a result restricted movement. She suffered a fall in September 2019 & required a Total Hip Replacement (THR). The thought of a surgery was terribly scary but we were lucky to have Dr Sanjeev Jain & his team handling it at L H Hiranandani Hospital, Powai. It was most organized, process focused & above all had attention to every little detail.

Besides the complex surgery, Dr Jain handled our fears to ensure Kumud was emotionally strong enough & prepared to deal with the procedure & also the post-operative care required. He did this by keeping communication lines open – clearly explaining the damage, procedure required, post care required, what to expect & above all thoroughly, patiently answering all of our questions. He patiently listened to what we were saying, our concerns & it is a rare quality.

Despite a successful THR, Kumud’s knee joint degeneration & deformity would not allow her to walk comfortably. But she was quite adamant about not doing more corrective surgery. It took several meetings with Dr Jain to give her the confidence to have a Total Knee Replacement (TKR) on both knees & assuage the fears she had on whether she would be able to walk independently. Every time, he took the time to talk to Kumud & clear doubts, repeatedly when necessary, because he genuinely believed a corrective surgery would make her more independent & comfortable. Because of years of pain, Kumud had restricted activity levels & a feeling of hopelessness. He really believed that corrective surgery would allow her to realize her potential so much better – very few medical professionals invest this much time & effort in the emotional wellbeing of their patients.

In Jan 2020, Dr Jain successfully completed TKR on both of Kumud’s knees. It has been 7 months since her 1st surgery. He is as receptive & patient with her questions even now in the follow up appointments & gives her the time she needs to discuss her recovery in detail.

Over & above his professional skills, Dr Jain exudes empathy & positivity. We cannot thank him enough for the interest he took in Kumud’s case, the care he gave & his honest, open communication. When a patient & her family don’t have to worry, they focus better on recovery. Dr Jain works very hard to ensure that the entire treatment & procedure is stress free.

My mother was having knee pain since last seven years. In last two years we consulted orthopedic doctors and it was suggested to undergo knee replacement in both knees. Like many would do, my mother also kept contemplating replacement option as it is not very easy decision to undergo medical procedures. Gradually, she started experiencing intense pain and it was now beyond applying herbal oils and pain killers which gave momentarily relief.

We met Dr. Sanjeev Jain at Dr. L.H Hiranandani Hospital in Powai for his guidance and evaluation. He advised my mother for knee replacement. While meeting him my mother felt confidence as he shared all details in a very practical way. He guides patients considering their willingness, if a patient is not ready he asks them to take some time to evaluate things at personal space and speak to family, relatives or friends who have undergone knee replacement. He confidently suggests to speak to his patients also if one wants to build reference and learn their experience. Dr. Sanjeev Jain is compassionate and very practical towards his approach. He transparently shares with patients about pre surgery preparation, surgery day and on post-surgery healing and progression timeframe.

After three months meeting Dr. Sanjeev Jain my mother was all set and prepared for knee replacement. Again Dr. Sanjeev Jain helped us on decision making to undergo both legs for knee replacement. It helps patient and their family to go through the entire treatment, physiotherapy and healing process in one go rather than splitting it for two different phases. We strongly believed in his decision as it demonstrated his courage, expertise & commitment and his practical & compassionate approach for patient and family.

It took us 5 days of hospitalization, three months of physiotherapy and now my mother does all suggested exercise by herself. My mother is extremely pleased with his expertise, competence and experience and the subsequent outcome in both of knees. She feels much better now and appreciates the mobility and especially we as family love to see her enjoy a satisfying and pain- free life.

We have whole heartedly expressed our views and belief to Dr. Sanjeev Jain, he is a blessing to humanity and he diligently and compassionately continues to serve community. We highly recommend Dr. Sanjeev Jain for his work and expertise and Dr. L.H Hiranandani Hospital for a great service.

We are thankful to Dr L.H Hiranandani Hospital Powai for an unwavering dedication and commitment to keeping community safe, healthy and continuing to compassionately care for people 24/7. We also would just like to say a big, big thank you to all the nurses and physiotherapist who extended their seamless support and care to my mother during treatment and post treatment therapy. Entire staff of Dr L.H Hiranandani Hospital are truly, truly one of the most brave and honorable people.

Always in our blessings, thank you Dr. Sanjeev Jain.
