Dr. Atul Joshi

After numerous postponements, I finally met Dr. Atul Sharma Joshi, the renowned surgeon at Fortis. As I sat in his office, memories of my visits to my Oxford GP flooded back, reminding me of the warmth and comfort I had experienced. Dr. Joshi's informal and approachable demeanor resonated deeply, evoking a similar sense of warmth. His calm and confident bearing put me at ease and I began to feel safe and reassured under his care. Following a brief examination, Dr. Joshi walked us to the door, and I knew instantly that I was in capable hands of a surgeon with years of experience and a proven track record, especially in Laparoscopic surgery. His humility, compassion, and non-assuming nature impressed me as essential qualities for medical professionals. Moreover, his sophistication and ability to connect immediately were striking, as were his frank and humorous responses to my numerous questions – a rare blend of wisdom and knowledge. His clear explanations indeed instilled in me deep trust and confidence, making me feel informed and prepared. And just before the surgery, Dr. Joshi's light-hearted comments put me at ease, dispelling my pre-operative anxiety. His gentle touch and exceptional communication skills inspired confidence, setting him apart. A few informal exchanges with him along with his compassionate tone and empathetic listening comforted me that I was in safe hands. To me his precision and dedication were evident in every aspect, making my surgical experience as comfortable and complication-free as possible. My hospital stay transformed into a peaceful retreat, particularly with his reassuring visits to my room and the engaging conversation that followed. Dr. Joshi patiently addressed my numerous questions with utmost seriousness and without any hint of haste, a refreshing departure from my previous experiences with some doctors who often displayed arrogance and self-importance. I now eagerly anticipate our post-surgery meeting. Most remarkably, my encounter with Dr. Joshi has cured me of my long-standing "white coat syndrome," which once sent my heart racing in medical settings.

We recently consulted Dr. Atul S. Joshi for my wife’s gall bladder stone removal surgery, and we are extremely grateful for his care and expertise. Initially, we were very worried and tense about how things would go, but from the very first consultation, Dr. Joshi’s humble and calm approach put us at ease. He took the time to explain the entire procedure in detail and assured us that everything would be handled with utmost precision. On the day of the surgery, we were still anxious, but the moment we saw Dr. Joshi, all our fears disappeared, he truly gave us hope and confidence. The surgery went perfectly smooth, and my wife was discharged the very next day. Dr. Joshi also guided us on post-surgery care, reassuring us that she could resume her normal diet and daily routine soon, and encouraged us to contact his team directly in case of any concern. We had found Dr. Atul Joshi online while searching for the top surgeon for gall bladder surgery in Mohali, and choosing him was absolutely the right decision. ** ** ** We wholeheartedly thank him for his exceptional care and wish him continued success, good health, and prosperity.

I recently underwent surgery performed by Dr. Atul Joshi at Fortis, Mohali, and I cannot express my gratitude enough for the exceptional care I received! Although I live in the US with family roots in Tricity, I got in touch with Dr. Joshi while in the US, and from the moment I met him, I felt confident in his care. Dr. Joshi and his team, especially Dr. Preety, were incredibly professional and compassionate throughout the entire process. They took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure and answer all of my questions, which put me at ease both before and after the surgery. Their availability and responsiveness during my recovery process has been very helpful, and I am now looking forward to returning to the US to join my family. The attention to detail and commitment to patient care demonstrated by Dr. Joshi and his team are truly unparalleled. I highly recommend Dr. Joshi to anyone in need of surgical services. Thank you so much, Dr. Joshi, and God bless you for the exceptional care you provided!

** ** I am grateful to him for treating my mother. I live in the USA while my mother lives in Punjab. She was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2020 and needed an immediate removal of her breast. Since she is old (75 years) and has multiple comorbidities (other serious health issues), her surgery was considered very high-risk. I rushed to India to get her surgery done ASAP and, after meeting with Dr. Joshi, there was no doubt in my mind that he should be operating on my mother. He explained everything to us in detail and with honesty. The surgery was very long and a tremendous success. My mom was able go to her recovery room (no need for ICU) within an hour after she woke up. Her recovery after surgery was smooth. Later Dr. Joshi helped install a chemo port on her in surgery that took just half an hour and was a complete success. Many doctors in India who, while being good in their profession, are often very rude to the patients and their relatives. In stark contrast, Dr. Joshi is a fantastic human being who is very courteous and sympathetic. I wholeheartedly recommend him as a surgeon.
