Jupiter Hospital

I had cervical spine surgery at one of the most reputed hospital in Mumbai. I wasn’t enough blessed, there was human error in my hip wound, they forgot big gauze in my wound from where they took bone to graft in neck. I struggled for 37 days with discharge from that wound, abused with antibiotics, painkillers and fever medicines. I wanted to travel back to US, I thought let’s check with surgeon how much medicines I need to carry to US. I had got reference of Dr Satish Pattanshetti from my another doctor friend. I walked in to Jupiter hospital, he asked me to lay down, meanwhile he read my discharge summary. He noticed gauze immediately and tried to pull it, thinking that it’s small piece, he noticed it’s not coming and I started screaming with pain. He told us what’s the issue. Me and my husband couldn’t believe that he showed us the portion of cloth which he could pull out. We both were shattered, he suggested to get admitted and we need to remove under Anastasia, since I had limited time I asked doctor, can we try under local Anastasia. He said if you could support I can do it. Within 15 mins big gauze was out. I was out of danger. He taught my husband how to do dressing at home before we leave from india. Gave me assurance that I will be fine in 2-3 weeks. Today while dressing my husband said wound is almost healed, you will be wound free by this weekend. I am so thankful and grateful for Dr. Satish’ help. You came in my life as God’s angel (Farishta).

Most important thing in these 7 days visit he was so calm, he let me took out my frustration, I was depressed. You saved my life. Doctor also provided support on my queries even though I was in US. This is true relationships with patient. I said earlier I wasn’t enough blessed but I must say I was blessed I met Dr Satish😊

Thank you so much🙏🙏

Dr. Ashish Pokharkar is a GEM of a person! I was diagnosed with sinonasal carcinoma (a rare kind of cancer) in July 2021 and Dr. Ashish treated me for the same. Unfortunately before him I met an ENT surgeon who misleaded me under the name of mucormycosis (which was actually a cancer) and gave me wrong treatment. After we got to know about the cancer we met Dr. Ashish through another oncologist and he guided us through the entire treatment. He is very friendly, humble, skilled professional who understands the patient's state of mind and supports him to get through the entire course with confidence. I had to undergo a complicated skull surgery as well and he got the best neurosurgeon for this. There was also a lump in my breast and just by physical diagnosis with his expertise he was sure that it was non cancerous. My surgery took around 8 hrs and he was present in the operation theatre even after his part was done to make sure everything goes well. He is one of the very rare doctors who takes the complete responsibility of the patient. From choosing the best hospital, involving the best surgeons, skillfully performing the surgery, till the patient goes back home with a smiling face, he takes cares of everything.

I was fortunate to know his wife Dr. Shital is an ENT surgeon and they both worked together along with the neurosurgeon on the day of my surgery. They both visited me daily till my discharge date and made sure I was doing well, even though it used to get late for them to reach their home at night. Like a family they both cared for me, made sure the hospital staff is treating me good. Being such a well known onco surgeon he is so down to earth. No words can express my gratitude towards him, he is a very kind, noble and someone because of whom I was able to fight this battle! Today's world needs doctors like him who truly cares for his patients and is an example of a perfect doctor, * ****** *** ** ******

Few months earlier, my parents met with major accident in which one foot of each was severely injured. 90% of the injury was due to tissues rupture and required plastic surgeon attention. Looking at the damage on my father's leg, there was likely probability of foot amputation as there was no skin on top and bottom of with crushed ankle. When we went to Doctor, for treatment he gave us the confidence that he would be able fix the foot and most likely amputation will not be required. He explained the details of flap surgery he was going to do for both mom and dad to save their foot and his explanation was easy enough for a layman to understand. After multiple rounds of surgeries after 4 months, both my parents are able to walk independently again. He gave personal attention to visit on daily basis to check the condition of operated part, and guided required precautions from time to time. We were impressed by his in-depth experience, knowledge, dedication and simple post recovery recommendations to keep cost low. He was ready to answer every query of ours till the time we understand it thoroughly and up-to our satisfaction. I would highly recommend Doctor to anyone for his knowledge, transparency, co-operation and help towards patients and his family.

I cannot be more thankful to Dr. Tushar Deore. He is fantastic person and Great Doctor.
