Six months ago, I had no worries in life whatsoever – I partied hard, worked late, ate whatever, slept whenever – the typical young professional, six months ago, I was frantically searching for a place to get proper heart surgery in Mumbai. I had this sharp pain while sitting for lunch one day, and ignored it till it got worse by the hour. By evening, I was feeling breathless and congested – completely fatigued. That is when I went in to the emergency and found out that I had some problems in my heart valves that required immediate surgery. My world fell apart – my job, the pressures of medical treatment (which is extremely costly in Mumbai), negotiating with the insurance claim. How could I manage it all myself, staying so far from my home? That is when a friend dragged me off to Lilavati Hospital and Research Centre in Bandra. They gave me a thorough check up, and a number of cardiologists confirmed that I needed heart surgery. In Mumbai, medical treatment can be extremely costly; but Lilavati’s bill was minimal, and they helped me recover the full sum from my insurance company. Lilavati is indeed the best place for heart surgery in Mumbai.
