Doctor Gurmeet Sawhney was one of the most genuine doctor that I have come across. He was very calm & patient in explaining all the details of my moms brain haemorrhage. He was very optimistic on treating her without any invasive surgery. He’s among the very few doctors that have made it a point to explain the patient/next of kin/guardians about the line of treatment very calmly with all certainty that he was sure of. I definitely recommend him as one of the very reliable neurosurgeons.
