My son was suffering from esophagus issues for which we had to travel all the way from rajasthan to Lucknow for dilation. We suffered a lot as it required too much of traveling and nobody guide us what to do next. From someone in relative we came to know about Dr. Gursev. We met him for consultation and was sure my son is in good hands now. He explained us everything step by step and later we decided to go for a surgery call Robotic assistedThorascopic esogoplasty. Alhamdulillah surgery went well and my son is doing very well. Thanks to Dr. Gursev and his team mate Imran bhai for assisting us from consultation to process our admission and discharges.

Dear Dr Gursev Sandlas, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for your exceptional care during the first stage of my son’s Hypospadias operation. From the moment we met you, your calm and composed demeanour while speaking with us as patients’ family members gave us very positive vibes. We had consulted multiple doctors before, but as parents, it was challenging to build trust and finalise a surgeon for our child’s operation. You instilled that confidence in us, allowing us to move forward without hesitation. You explained everything in a positive, reassuring manner, and every detail you shared before the surgery has come true post-operation. We were initially worried about your travel schedule—being out of India for 20 days every month—and how we would reach you if something arose. However, you assured us there would be no issues before or after the surgery, and you made yourself reachable anytime via calls and messages through your assistant, Imran. Imran was outstanding in resolving all our queries before and after the operation. He stayed in constant touch, responding within an hour, and for urgent concerns, he addressed them in just 10-15 minutes by coordinating directly with you. Thank you once again, Dr Sandlas, for completing the first stage of my son’s operation without any complications, by God’s grace. And a big thank you to Imran for his unwavering support throughout this journey.Posted on Google![]()

Dr. Gursev Sandlas is a phenomenal surgeon. We were initially very nervous after other doctors recommended a complex, multi-stage repair. Dr. Sandlas instantly put us at ease, was confident in a single-stage operation, and delivered fantastic results. Our son is recovering quickly! We are immensely satisfied with his professionalism and his team's support. Special shoutout to Imran for seamless appointment scheduling. Highly recommendedPosted on Google![]()
