What Our Patients Say About Us.
I'm a 74 year old lady based in Navi Mumbai. In my younger years I had an active lifestyle in lieu with my work & career. After I turned 40, I chose to be a home maker. Over the years, physical activity reduced to social visits outside and almost no exercise.
I was diagnosed with rheumatism and arthritis in 1998. I tried to ignore the pain initially, but over the past decade it became unbearable. With the pain and almost abuse of my knees due to lack of exercise, my cartilage had thinned down to almost zero and the knee bones friction would stimulate excruciating pain every time I got up or tried to walk, as a result my activity reduced even further. I began to seek treatment and advice from some of the best doctors in Mumbai and most advised a knee replacement surgery for both knees. But somehow I wasn't convinced with either the doctor's attitude or the hospital or the treatment.
I met Dr. Sanjeev Jain in August 2011 for a check-up. His detailed diagnosis helped me understand the gravity of my problems. He explained to me how important the knee replacement surgery was in my case, and gave me a detailed presentation of the proposed surgery, given the impressive facilities at Dr. L. H. Hiranandani Hospital, Powai, Mumbai. I decided at the end of the meeting that I will go through the surgery.
On September 04, 2011, I got myself admitted in a deluxe room, the team of doctors under Dr. Jain's supervision visited me to explain every aspect of it from Physiotherapists, Dieticians, Anesthetists every doctor met me and explained the treatment. The surgery was handled by Dr. Jain himself. Needless to say, the surgery went off seamlessly. Dr Jain visited me many a time in the ICU after the surgery, comforted my family who was anxiously waiting outside the OT. Post surgery, I was in the hospital for four days. Each day was a regimen with doctors but each one taking care of my physical condition and psychological temperament.
Within three to six months of my surgery, with regular physiotherapy, I became literally 15 years younger. Today I am back to my earlier active life, I travel more and exercise everyday and this is all thanks to Dr. Jain.
