Dr. Simi Saksena completed her MBBS & MS (General Surgery) from GR Medical College Gwalior, M.P. Initially practicing as female General Surgeon was a daunting and challenging task for her in a field purely dominated by males for years. Hard work became her mission and since then there is no looking back. Female patients who had inhibitions could approach her with ease. Her discerning and audacious approach towards her profession soon got accolades from her clientele. She traveled to Germany and obtained training in laparoscopic and gastrointestinal surgery from Klinikum Grosshadern Hospital in Munich, Germany. She returned to India in 1998 and over the last 15 years has developed her practice exclusively dedicated to the field of surgery. She has a team of female anesthetists as well, in all the hospitals where she is visiting due to the strict female privacy asked for by few female patients. In 2007, she was awarded the prestigious "Fellowship in Minimal Access Surgery" from the Association of Minimal Access Surgeons of India at Baroda. Since 1996 she has been practicing as General & Laparoscopic surgeon, operating on a female as well as male patients. She is also into Surgical Gastroenterology, doing upper GI endoscopy.

Doctor Saksena treated my wife Divya’s mucosal prolapse in 2021.
It was an emergency and early morning we got up and realized that there was a problem.
It took us some time to figure out who to go to since we had no idea
After some effort, we came across Dr Saksena’s profile as a Proctologist
We rushed to her Panacea clinic in Andheri anf met her.
She was extremely friendly, warm and quick to understand our concern.
She gave me and my wife an immediate assurance that it could be treated.
We were in two minds initially but she gave us the confidence and we agreed to get my wife operated at her clinic same day.
The surgery was successful and she explained the entire procedure carefully and thoughtfully putting us at ease.
Within a few hours of recovery at her clinic, she discharged my wife with painkillers and guided her regarding the necessary steps that were critical at home for speedier recovery
After a few followups of consulting her my wife was perfectly fine
Infact she felt much better when we took her home after getting discharged
She was truly a blessing when we needed her the most and we will always remain grateful to her for the speedy medical assistance that she provided to us with her years of experience, warmth and quick diagnosis.
Till today we share this experience with all our known contacts and recommend her strongly for any medical condition related to he field of expertise.
Thank you once again Doctor Saksena
This was due for a long time but we remembered & thanked you once again when your treatment and advise helped us in our pregnancy since our gynae went ahead with a critical decision based on your diagnosis and reports.

I got my Gallbladder removal done from Dr. Simi and honestly the experience was amazing. Super smooth, quick and painfree. She is also personally a health fanatic, marathoner and most importantly a good caring human being who will give you detailed advice and answer your phone whenever you call **
I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Simi Saksena. She was extremely professional, patient, and reassuring, and explained everything clearly, which made me feel comfortable and confident about the treatment.

Hello Doc Simi,
I am sending this note to send my heartfelt gratitude. Thanks for easing my pain and thank you for encouraging me when I was down. You have done what medicine along the would not have done. 🧿❤️ If you feel a lump or change in your breast, it’s normal to be concerned. However, most lumps are not breast cancer, but something less serious, such as a benign (not cancer) breast condition. Just don’t ignore it. 🙏
No words are enough to appreciate the service you do. You as a doctor and the staff at your clinic has been really helpful and supportive. Thank you for all your service. 💜🥺🩵
MOST BENIGN BREAST CONDITIONS ARE TREATABLE, AND SOME WILL EVEN GO AWAY ON THEIR OWN, BUT IT'S BEST TO LET YOUR DOCTOR BE THE ONE TO TELL YOU THAT. ALL BREAST LUMPS SHOULD BE EVALUATED BY A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL, WHO WILL HELP YOU DECIDE HOW TO PROCEED. A BREAST LUMP IS A GROWTH OF TISSUE THAT FORMS IN THE BREAST. MOST BREAST LUMPS AREN'T DANGEROUS. BUT IT'S KEY TO HAVE YOUR DOCTOR OR OTHER HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONAL CHECK THEM PROMPTLY.
JUST DON’T IGNORE OR NEGLECT YOUR LUMP, THE WAY I DID AND SUFFERED A LOT. PAST TWO MONTHS TOOK A TOLL ON MY BODY, ESPECIALLY MY MENTAL HEALTH! IT TOOK ME 7 MONTHS TO CONSULT A DOCTOR, THE LUMP BECAME A TUMOR VERY SOON AND IT STARTED GROWING. BUT SEE YOUR DOCTOR OR OTHER HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONAL TO LEARN WHAT KINDS OF TESTS YOU MIGHT NEED AND WHICH TYPE OF BREAST LUMP YOU HAVE. 🙏🙏
There aren’t enough words to express how grateful my family and I are for you, doctor. We definitely need more doctors like you. Thank you. ❤️🧿 #gratitude
Love,
Payal

She may be a very nice doctor *** *** ******* ** ***** ** * ***** *** ******** ********* ********* *** * *** ** **** ** *** **** ** ******** *** * ***** **** * ******** *** ** *** ***** ** ***** ** * ****** For my dad’s liver cancer surgery also, a grade / estimate was agreed to but Dr. simi didn’t for a simple fissurectomy. It is fine if she isn’t affiliated or does not agree to Nanavati rules and regs but she could have informed me in advance so i could go to another doc and get myself treated at the earliest.

Went for fissure treatment post pregnancy. The doctor immediately said surgery is the only option and nothing else will work for long term. No treatment was recommended expect that.
I wasn’t convinced so I went in for another opinion at Kokilaben hospital. *** ** ***** ******* **** ** **** **** * ************ **** ** ***** *** ***** ********** *** ****** *** ***** * *** ********** ******* ***** *** * **** *** *** ****** ******* **** ***** **** **** *** * ******* ** *** ** ****** *******

Due to years of ignoring diet and digestive health I ended up having acute constipation which then led to fissure. I was in a lot of pain. Dr. Simi not only helped me feel better but she also diagnosed the issue immediately and had the corrective procedure completed quickly and safely.
She also helped me after the procedure with recovery and diet. She is helpful, friendly and I'm feeling so much better now, thanks to her.
Hoped for better: Wait time
The wait feels long. Still no response, and I haven’t heard from the doctor yet. I don’t know how else to coordinate.

I honestly never thought I’d be writing a review for a surgeon but life happens. We all go through good and bad times, and I’m truly grateful that during one of my hardest times, I had the best surgeon by my side.
Someone recommended Dr. Simi Saksena to me, and from the very first consultation, everything has been so smooth. To give you some context, I have a severe fear of blood, needles make me panic, and my pain tolerance is practically zero. Yet with Dr. Simi, the entire procedure felt like butter. She is so gentle that you barely feel a thing. I had an abscess removed, and even today, when I went in for my first post-surgery dressing which I had been dreading, it was done in seconds without the pain I was expecting. I am now back home, comfortable, and writing this review in disbelief that I even went through surgery.
If you are reading this and wondering whether to go ahead, do not think twice. Just consult Dr. Simi. *** ** *** ************ a special shoutout to Nurse Jyoti. She was incredibly gentle, patient, and supportive throughout. During my blood test, when my anxiety was at its peak, she kept me calm and helped me through it so smoothly.
I am beyond grateful for both of them.
