Dr. Anand Kavi

Doctor Anand Kavi, or sir as my family fondly calls him, treated my mother for L4-L5 endoscopic lumbar spine surgery this Saturday and mummy was walking on Sunday morning, and its not even 2 days and she is already home. I could not have imagined this, walking the next day of a spine surgery. Sir, is more than a doctor, he is a friend, a guide, a guru, an angel by all means. He is the best doctor to guide and treat you or your loved one and gives ample time. And if you have any doubts about the surgery or searching for a surgeon to consult please remove them and meet him. You are lucky that you are reading this. I was in your place not even a week ago.

Please continue reading if need more details.

Mummy had a spine issue from 2007 and over years we tried few treatments, allopathy and others, some relief used to be there but nothing cured it. Slowly I think the pain became a part of her life so she started ignoring it and we all took it lightly. Which we should not have, back ache should be treated immediately. Recently, the problem exaggerated, the pain was unbearable this time so we showed it to an Orthopaedic (other doctor) That whole day went in taking mri, x-rays etc and meeting that doctor few times, he suggested immediate back surgery and then knees surgery in a year's time.

We thought of taking a second opinion. We came to know about Dr. Anand through a family friend who he had operated on and they spoke highly of him, I got his personal number, he spoke very calmly with respect, gave an appointment for next day and shared the location on phone, next day we were delayed by few minutes but he was cool as a cucumber, and welcomed us, relaxed my mother, he checked her back, legs, knees for pain and then saw the reports that we had already done before and explained everything to us in detail (he will give you ample time, more than any doctor I have ever met). He told us that the we should go for the surgery, as the nerve is getting compressed (stenosis). He said an endoscopic surgery is not complicated like the old surgeries and next day you can walk, they only have to make a little cut in back and even that heals without any scar as such. We came home relaxed.

Surgery was planned on Saturday, in between me and my brother met sir again with my queries next day, he met us and solved them even though he had a surgery same day. I called / messaged him, he answered or called back and replied to messages with calming messages. We got admitted on the day surgery at Apollo Spectra , sir's entire team was really good, its a hospital without a hospital vibe, very relaxed. Surgery was in the afternoon, and after that sir called and met me and spoke to me in detail about how well the surgery went and if you have met sir and reading this review for affirmation, if he has told you surgery is the best option, just trust and go ahead without thinking. I will tell you why - So initially in our first appointment while looking at reports he had suggested surgery at two levels (L4-L5, L5-s1) but after surgery when he spoke to me, he told me they operated only on L4-L5 as he found the other level L5-s1 was strong and could be treated without surgery and will be strong for years to come if taken precaution. This is how committed Doctor Kavi is and and does not operate for the sake of it.

The next day of surgery sir came to check the progress, he joked with my mother to make her feel relaxed as just after surgery there is pain due to swelling in nerve, yet she walked a little. My father met Dr. Anand Kavi for the first time that day and listened to my father's poems/thoughts which he had penned down very affectionately and we laughed a lot that day.

On 2nd day she walked without any support and climbed a flight of stairs by touching the wall. She is back home now happy and feeling relaxed and is doing her exercises as I write.

And if you are scared for yourself or a loved one, trust me they are in best hands. He is an internationally acclaimed surgeon. We are lucky and blessed to have met him. We found a God like Human in him!

*** ***** **** ** *** *******He takes time to listen. The treatment that we receive from Dr. Anand Kavi is excellent.

We are from Thane (Mumbai). My Wife was suffering from chronic LEG Pain since last 4-5 months.

On investigation & MRI, all doctors in Mumbai suggested us the open spine surgery. This takes 3-4 months to heal post-surgery as it includes stiches and risk of nerve damages.

In between we came to know about Dr. Anand Kavi from Pune through our relative.

He consulted us over phone, listen to complaints & suggested us the Endoscopic Spine Decompression. He assured us that patient will be relieved from pain & there is zero risk in this surgery.

We decided to go with Dr. Anand Kavi's suggestion & did the surgery at Pune. Immediately after surgery, in 2-3 Hrs. my wife started walking in room & we got discharge very next day.

I am writing this review after a week now & happy that my wife is perfectly fine & have started doing her regular activates.

Dr. Anand Kavi really strives to give the best care possible to each of his patients.

We suggest everyone, who is suffering from back pain/Leg Pain/Slip Disc & planning for surgery to meet Dr. Kavi once.

I had slipped disc issue due to which I had pain in my sciatic nerve radiating from the lower back till the ankle of the left leg. In due course, the pain worsened to such an extent that I got bed ridden for almost 10 days. In this bad condition, I consulted Dr. Anand Kavi who is an endoscopic spine surgeon. On seeing my MRI and other reports, he suggested immediate surgery. His diagnosis is very accurate. He explained my medical condition elaborately and cleared all our doubts regarding surgery and assured us of complete relief from pain. He guided us through all the pre-requisites of surgery. He is very experienced, ************* *** friendly doctor. He removed all our fear before undergoing the surgery inspite of it being a complex one. The surgery went on fine and within an hour of surgery I was able to walk and experienced no pain. Since he performed endoscopic surgery, the cut on my back is mere 8 mm which also healed within a week. Also the follow up was well dealt. I thank him for being a blessing for me and my family. I would highly recommend Dr. Anand Kavi for any spine related issues.

Dr Kavi is a specialist in spine injury treatment. My slip-disc injury was so severe that I got bedridden for a month. I consulted few doctors but none of them were able to give me the level of confidence for undergoing with surgery until I met Dr Kavi. He almost gave me an hour when I first met him at his clinic for initial consultation. He explained me the possible reasons of the injury and also explained the endoscopic surgical procedure in detail, which gave me the required confidence and trust to proceed with the surgery. He operated me in Apollo hospital. The surgery took around 2 hours and by evening I was able to walk again. Its been more than 10 days since the surgery. My pain is completely gone and I have slowly started to get back on my routine. All thank to Dr Kavi.I wish him all the best!!!!

Dr. Kavi is truly an amazing doctor. I got operated by him for a herniated disc via an Endoscopic surgery. Have not come across a Doctor like him in ages, who cares so deeply for his patients. Not only does he examine in you in detail, he explains all available treatment options and allows a patient to make up his mind. He is an extremely skilled surgeon, who explains every step of the treatment & surgery in detail. My mother, who is also a doctor, was really impressed by his calm & professional approach. Would highly recommend him!! Thank you doctor for all your help!!

very friendly nature and down to earth, **** **** ********* ** *** ***** *** *** *** ******. understands and listen all the doubts and query and answers them meaningfully.. Best thing is he believe on natural care than the medicines or surgery.. prescribes one or two medicine that too very less mg(Dose).. .
