2 Years ago My mother had to undergo a bilateral surgery for her both leg knees. she was suffering for the past 10years ... we consulted many doctors ....and then we met Dr Santosh Shetty. our destiny. Until now I associated the word Surgery with Misery. After being under the careful watch of a doctor like you, I associate Surgery with Healthy Recovery... Other doctors simply treat their patients with medicines but forget to do the most important thing which you do – help them to move on with their lives with motivating words and inspirational thoughts. Thanks for everything doc. I am sending this note to send my heartfelt gratitude. Thanks for easing my mother's knee pain and thank you for encouraging her when she was down. You have done what medicine along the would not have done. Continue to be a blessing to others through your profession. my mother told something which I remember now. surgeon like you are not just doctors, but real lifesavers. I may not have talked to god in my prayers, but in your services I have seen some of his favors

My wife was suffering from severe knee pain for the past 4 years. Just when it was decided to undergo total knee replacement surgery the doctor under whose care ,changed base. At this stage my company doctor referred her to Dr Santosh Shetty of Surana Sethia Hospital Chembur. At the end of her appointment I thanked my stars that i have come to the right place. A bilateral knee replacement surgery was conducted on 31st July 2018. Now after a week she is able to walk without any support as well as climb steps. I cannot express my gratitude in few words for Dr Santosh Shetty. He is just the definition of what a Doctor should be Kind, Compassionate,Dedicated,Motivative and down to earth. All our relevant and mostly irrelevant queries where answered without grumbling. He made her so comfortable that never felt that she was under the operating table. Each and every procedure was explained in detail both before and after the surgery.To top it all he makes a personal call to monitor the progress. Our sincere thanks to Doctor with a prayer to God to give him sufficient strength to serve the society .

My wife had to undergo a bilateral surgery for her both knees. It was a testing time for us. My wife was suffering for the past 6 years or so. We consulted many. When we met Dr Santosh Shetty, a voice in us told that he is the surgeon who would do this surgery. In this context, we must say that one cannot miss out the divine grace present in his face. And with that great asset to back him, how a doctor cannot be both humorous and caring. It is natural. All through his conversation, there was a straightforward honesty which was a breath of fresh air. Above all, the Dr S Shetty listens when we speak to him. He asks for our opinion and includes us in decision making. He has a great sense of humor and skill. He makes his patients feel special. He has an excellent bedside manner. My wife is presently recuperating very fast and her post surgery pain is very minimal. May he live long and God bless.

My mother got her knee operation done from Dr Santosh Shetty. From the first meeting itself he was sweet and very clear. He told us all the details about the operation, the procedure, the materials he is going to use, the time it will take for healing etc very patiently. My mother had been delaying the surgery because she was scared of getting operated. After meeting him, she felt so comfortable that she instantly got ready to do the knee replacement with him. Post the operation he was always available on call. We had so many small concerns and I ended up calling him quite a few times, sometimes late in the night as well. He would always answer the call and solve all our queries patiently. It’s very rare that a surgeon at his level who is always so busy takes such kind of personal interest in the patients well being. He was very kind, empathetic and encouraging. My mom felt half her illness was gone just by talking to him. We had been to few doctors before we got to know about Dr Shetty. We feel doing the knee replacement surgery with him was the best decision we could have ever made! Such an excellent doctor and such a positive experience. Thank you Dr Shetty. Will always be grateful.

Dr.Santosh Shetty "The Best Knee replacement surgeon in town " My mom was not able to stand or walk for a minute and the pain was unbearable, then through someone's reference, we met Dr.Santosh Shetty. He recommended us a knee replacement surgery and also assured us that she will be completely fine after that. And yes it's been 4 years now for her knee replacement surgery and she is completely fine. She can walk, she can stand for a long time.
