Hiranandani hospital, Powai

I recently had a minimally invasive heart surgery (ARV-RAT) performed by Dr. Chandrashekhar Kulkarni at Nanavati Max Hospital, and I couldn’t be more thankful for the care I received.

From the very first consultation, Dr. Kulkarni took the time to explain the procedure in detail, answer all my questions, and ease my anxieties. His calm, confident, and compassionate approach immediately made me feel I was in the right hands.

The surgery was done without a large chest incision, which significantly reduced pain and allowed for a much faster recovery. I was up and walking within couple of days and discharged from the hospital in Within one week, I was back to my daily routine with minimal discomfort and almost no visible scarring.

Dr. Kulkarni’s team and the staff at Nanavati Max were equally outstanding—extremely attentive, professional, and always available for any post-op concerns. The nursing care was excellent, and the facilities were clean and well-equipped.

*If you're looking for a modern, minimally invasive heart surgery with faster healing and expert care, I would strongly recommend Dr. Chandrashekhar Kulkarni. He truly combines cutting-edge technology with a human touch.*

My husband underwent minimally invasive AVR-RAT heart surgery under Dr. Chandrashekhar Kulkarni at Nanavati Max Hospital, and we are extremely grateful. Dr. Kulkarni is not only a highly skilled cardiac surgeon but also kind, patient, and thorough in his explanations. The procedure involved no chest bone cutting, which meant less pain, minimal scarring, and a faster recovery. My husband was walking within days and discharged soon after. The care from both the doctor and hospital staff was outstanding. We highly recommend Dr. Kulkarni for anyone seeking advanced, minimally invasive heart surgery. Truly world-class treatment.
