Mr. Bhye Zaheed Goolamun
My father also went to Nanavati hospital last year and received excellent treatment. That's why I brought my husband there for his sinusitis treatment. I highly recommend this hospital.

My son was born with a hearing problem, that's why we came to India for his treatment, and we are so relieved to be leaving Medanta Hospital after his successful surgery. Highly recommended hospital.
