Dr. Vishwanath Dudani

Dr. Dudani is probably the worst doctor I have ever been to. He is the main reason why a lot of good doctors in India are losing credibility. On my recent visit to Thailand I had fallen and got 10 stitches on my forehead. I went to Dr.Dubani (at Fortis Hospital) only for getting my stitches removed. As soon as I lay down on the bed, he ripped off my bandages with force and used nothing but a blade to scrape off my stitches till my wound opened up. It was clear to me at this point that he was doing this for the wrong reasons. He did not ask me once if I was feeling pain in spite of me making grunting noises and pushing my head away because of pain. He carried this on till my wound was open and so he could show my mom (who was waiting) what a bang up job people in Thailand had done. He told me my stitches were not done properly and we should come next day and the charge would be Rs 10,000. On confronting him about this issue he acted innocent and god sent. He talked about how he is the most amazing doctor in India and how people fight to have him as their surgeon. I am not a doctor but one thing I know for sure is the fact that any good doctor will make sure that his/her patient is not in pain and will follow basic procedure to cleanup up the wound and use proper tools. Dr.Dudani did not do any of this. I know most people would shy away and sweep things under the rug because it may seem like a small matter but unless I write this down our country will always have such people treating us. Hope this review helps a few to take wise decision and stay away from this doctor.
