After I was discovered with hiatal hernia, I had consulted several surgeons. Not until I had shared my problem with Mrs. Aruna Chudasama in Mombasa, Kenya, who introduced me to Doctor Chirang Thakkar located in CIMS hospital in Ahmedabad, India. I consulted him about my problem which he had responded to quickly, we then arranged to travel to India on December for the surgery. I will admit, before I had conversed with him I was fearful of having an operation, after we had discussed he answered all of my concerns. He is very and kind and respectful, the surgery was a success, and my recover has been quick and smooth. I applaud your degree of professionalism and wish you a continued success as a doctor. Without hesitation I would recommend you to anyone in need of a surgeon.I would also point out that I am highly impressed with the competence of the staff and the way the carried out their services. They are indeed friendly and courteous. I am back in Kenya recovering well.

I am writing to you on behalf of my mother, who for the last almost 6 years had been suffering from gastro-intestinal issues and indeed Dr. Chirag Thakkar almost saved a lost hope.

While in Tanzania, we met with several doctors to get a solution to her problems, she also traveled to Mumbai one time and Ahmedabad one time (and met with another doctor) and these doctors would just give medicines to her to get her off pains for a few weeks/months and after which, the problem would start all over again.

We met with Dr. Thakkar on a Sunday 20th April, to start the treatment and she was inside the operation theatre on the 23rd April and discharged from the hospital on Saturday 26th April. This one week of her life made great changes to her, morally, physically and mentally. It is for the 1st time in over 2 years that she has continuously been walking through the day and eating well without a slight complain on the pains like she was experiencing before.

Dr. Thakkar is a true hero. He cured a problem that many doctors failed, he is a good listener. He found the cause on the first visit and treated it within a week. My mother is now able to do everything she could before she got sick. He treated her. Pain was her constant companion and she had many limitations to her life style. We will always be grateful to Dr. Thakkar for all that he has done. Thank you for your compassion and understanding. Kind Regards Atika

I got operated by Dr Chirag for hiatus hernia before 1 year. My half stomach was in my chest because of hiatus hernia. It started with heartburn few years back. I was on medicines since then. Gradually new problems like pain, difficulty in eating and cough started. There was no improvement with medicines. Dr Chirag told all is due to hiatus hernia and will improve with surgery. My surgery was difficult and was done by laparoscopy. Thanks to Dr Chirag for getting me out of this condition. It was really horrible before surgery

I was suffering from heartburn and acid coming back to my throat since few years. I was taking antacid medicines for years altogether. Initially it worked but then problems remained even after increasing the dosage of medicines. Still most of the doctors advised to continue medicines, diet and some lifestyle modification. Even after doing everything I was having bad days due to heartburn. Finally Dr Chirag advised laparoscopic surgery and assured of good results and he was right. Its one and a half year now and I am doing absolutely fine with no medicines. I still follow diet and lifestyle changes as he has advised. I wish I had undergone the surgery a few years earlier. He is a great doctor, warm and smiling.

I am a Dr from Chattisgadh, and was suffering from GERD since 5 years. I consulted Dr Chirag Thakkar to find solution to my problem. After Eaophageal Manometry and ph study, he suggested a laparoscopic surgery as a permanent solution. I got the surgery done 3 days back and it was a very smooth experience. It was nothing as frightening as i thought. I am feeling fine and am traveling back today. Dr Thakkar has been a great help and support, I really thank him.
