I would like to share my experience with Dr. Shailendra Verlekar. My name is Manish Dalvi, and in November 2021, I was diagnosed with a serious spinal condition. Before consulting Dr. Verlekar, I had visited several reputed orthopedic specialists in Ghatkopar and Andheri. Based on my reports and symptoms, many doctors suggested that it could be bone cancer and advised urgent treatment. Naturally, this created a great deal of fear and anxiety for me and my family. Dr. Verlekar was the fifth doctor I consulted, and my experience with him was completely different. During our very first appointment, he calmly reviewed my symptoms and explained that, in his opinion, there was a very high possibility that it was Spinal Tuberculosis (TB) rather than cancer. He reassured me that there was no need to panic and advised a biopsy to confirm the diagnosis. After the biopsy, the diagnosis was confirmed as Spinal TB. The relief I felt at that moment was indescribable. Dr. Verlekar immediately started the appropriate treatment, and I began noticing improvement within the first week itself. I successfully completed the full one-year course of medication under his guidance. Throughout the treatment journey, Dr. Verlekar was always patient, approachable, and reassuring. Every consultation left me feeling more confident and positive, which made a huge difference during a very challenging period of my life. I never had the opportunity to properly thank him, so I would like to do so through this review. In my opinion, medical knowledge is essential, but what truly sets a doctor apart is the ability to instill confidence, hope, and trust in patients. Dr. Verlekar excels in all these aspects. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Verlekar to anyone seeking orthopedic or spine-related treatment. You will be in safe and capable hands. Thank you, Doctor, for your excellent care and support. — Manish Dalvi
