I recently had my father-in-law bilateral TKR got done by this amazing doctor Dr. Vijay Kumar Sohanlal. We consulted him through word of mouth, but the way he encouraged my FIL and motivated him for the surgery is commendable. The attitude of the doctor is that he is very down to earth. He treats every patient as his own family and responds to every text and call, so good of him. The doctors confidence in our FIL has brought courage to us during his post surgery period. I would surely recommend this doctor for everyone who are ready to jump in their second childhood😀
Visited Dr. VIJAY for knee replacement surgery in both legs for my mother. It was done as planned. It was a trouble free experience getting the knee replacement done. All follow ups and treatment after the surgery were seamlessly planned and executed without the hassle of having to follow up for anything. Got my mother properly treated and discharged within 7 days as per the plan. In 7 days, my mother is able to walk and move with some assistance and have full hope of her being able to walk and move independently in coming weeks. He is a very friendly and experienced doctor and answered all queries before and during the treatment with patience. Would highly recommend him for orthopedic surgeries. After getting discharged, I had to take my mother for staples removal but the home lift was not working so I was unable to take my mother to the clinic. Dr. Vijay was kind enough and had the contacts to arrange for stitch removal at home, very thankful to him for that. He also has good, polite physiotherapists in his team. Had a very good experience with the physiotherapist that he arranged for home visit for knee exercises for my mother.

We went for our daughter’s treatment and doctor was very professional. He didn’t ask to take all the test at once, rather started with an x-ray when something got confirmed then asked to do the required tests. Also doesn’t enforces to do it in a specific lab. He also took an opinion with our pediatrician on the medication. Overall satisfied with treatment and care provided by Dr. VIJAY KUMAR SOHANLAL.
Dear Dr ! I am very much thankful for your kind care extended towards my daughter’s surgery. You have been very outspoken and have given us the right timely advice. Your quality of job is highly appreciated. The management is gifted to have Doctors like you. With thanks and warm regards, P. Prakash & Family.
