Dr. Kapil Patwardhan

We came here on 27th September 2016 at 12 midnight. My father was suffering from fever since 15 days.casulty doctors admitted him immediately. Dr Kapil visited him in the morning around 10 am. After checking my father he immediately asked to do all necessary tests which included blood and urine test. In between he went through my father's medical history as he is having cardiac related problems. Based on that he observed my father and suggested to do complete checkup and shifting him to Icu for better observation. Yes the days were hard but at the end of the day all the reports were negative which included Csf, city scan, MRI. Meanwhile he already started all the medicines so that whatever the cause is there he will respond to it and fever should go. All the tests were negative :), but the positive thing was medicine worked and my father started responding to it. Fever was gone. Later there were some complications regarding his bp and heart rate but with the help of medicine he prescribed he got better day by day. My father was in Icu for 6 days. Dr was suggesting that I should let him be in Icu for one more day medically , but with his assurance I gave consent and shifted him to private ward. Later the doctor saw his improvement and discharged him in two days :).

I recently had been diagnosed with Dengue fever and had to be admitted to sahyadri hospital. Dr. Kapil Patwardhan was my doctor and it was thanks to him and his wonderful team that I got through a very difficult time. Not only was my treatment taken care of the minute I was admitted, but just his words of encouragement and hope got me through. I wouldn't have survived dengue without him. I remember after my platelet count had reached an alarmingly low level, his team did everything they could to bring me out. It was a very tense situation. The next day when somehow my platlet levels started increasing, he met me and just had to say and I paraphrase.."it's not just about the levels, but how you get there." He was so happy with my increase and I think that positivity gave me the will to fight and to prove him right. In my adult life this was the 1st time that I had to be admitted in a hospital and I have to say, Dr. Kapil saved my life. I will never forget the professionalism, care and a very personal touch that Dr.Kapil and his team gave me. With the pandemic, we keep saying that our doctors are frontline workers etc. We forget that they do this every single day irrespective of a pandemic or not. If our world is filled with doctors like Dr.Kapil, then I have hope and promise that we are in the best hands possible. Thank you very much Dr Kapil Patwardhan.

We bought my father in emergency department of Sahyadri at 6am in the morning. He was feeling too weak and was sleepless since 3 days, with a history of hypertension and diabetes. He was also having minor difficulty breathing. Dr. Kapil was our family doctor since 3years so we naturally contacted him and they got my father admitted. After a check up and chest xray Kapil sir immediately termed it as pneumonia and the relevant treatment was started. It could have been be due to swine flu or pneumonia bacteria/viruses is what he suggested, but only tests could prove that. A day after, my father was having too much of coughing and more difficulty breathing, he was moved to icu, where the next xray showed spread of infection in lungs and was put on ventilator. By the time the test reports were out. Swine flu and pneumonia panel was negative. Also, by this time Kapil sir had reviewed reports and stepped up the antibiotics. He also doubted the Dengue which turned out to be positive, but there were no dengue symptoms. The treatment was already started from day one, which helped. Father eventually became stable, xrays were back to normal and he was moved out of icu and discharged in 2days. The cause was later identified to be Dengue driven which had caused the viral Pneumonia. Thanks to the efforts and treatment of Dr. Kapil & team who almost saved my father from the unfortunate circumstances. He explained causes in straightforward words, but was kind enough to console & support us. His understanding of symptoms and correct diagnosis has always helped my family, is much appreciated.
