Patient Testimonials

I rushed to Medanta Hospital, Gurugram, Haryana, India, after my wife was diagnosed with a mass in the lower left lobe of her lung which was found malignant. She was admitted under Professor Arvind Kumar who performed a Video Assisted Thoracic Surgery on my wife. My experience at Medanta has been unprecedented. Dr. Kumars team is world class as is Dr. Kumar himself, the nursing staff, the duty doctors, cleaners, and other help related staff. Dr. Arvind Kumar removed the growth in my wifes lung giving her a new lease of life. I am grateful to him, his team, and the Ministry of External Affairs, India for issuing me, my son, Dr Shabab Wahab Chowdhury and my wife Ms. Sultana Parvin Chowdhury visas expeditiously. I wouldreccomend anyone suffering from lung diseases to please trust Medanta Hospital, Gurgaon, Haryana, India.  With best wishes, Professor Golam Sarwar Chowdhury,  Chair, Department of English,   Notre Dame University Bangladesh, Arambagh, Dhaka, Bangladesh

I am diagnosed with aspergillosis which requires the removal of upper lobe of left lung and instead of open surgery my doctor suggested VATS (if possible) due to its minimum risk as I am also a lupus patient. Some known doctors recommend Dr. Arvind kumar for VATS as he is best in this field. Dr. Arvind sir and team clears all my doubts and motivates me. They all are patience with me and my doubts. Before and after surgery, the physiotherapist team Dr. Vineet sir and team, clearly instruct to do exercise for our own benefit as it is the main essential for our speedy and smooth recovery. Team help throughout the process. Doctors came regularly to check the improvement in health. As an introvert I feel totally comfortable arround all of them. Staff is compassionate, thoughtful and supportive. I AM VERY GRATEFUL TO MEDANTA AND Dr. ARVIND KUMAR AND TEAM. For me Medanta is temple and only hope is Dr. Arvind kumar sir And now hes my HERO...

After my father was diagnosed with lung cancer, our family entered a phase of confusion, fear, and endless searching. We went from one place to another, meeting different doctors, hearing different opinions, but nothing felt complete or convincing. It often felt like treatment decisions were being made without truly understanding the disease—as if arrows were being shot in the dark before fully identifying the target. During this difficult journey, I came to know about Dr. Arvind Kumar. When we finally met him, everything changed.

From the very first interaction, it was clear that he believes in understanding the disease thoroughly before naming it or treating it. He explained that without fully studying and identifying the condition, any diagnosis or treatment is uncertain. His clarity, depth of knowledge, and methodical approach gave us something we had been missing all along—confidence and trust.

What impressed me even more was not just his medical expertise, but his behavior and humanity. The way he listened, explained, and guided us made us feel seen and understood. It felt as though he could look at the patient and immediately connect all the dots—like a wise astrologer who, at a glance, understands the entire story written in front of him.

Meeting Dr. Arvind Kumar made us realize what a true doctor is—someone who combines deep knowledge with compassion, science with wisdom. In a time filled with uncertainty, he became a source of clarity and hope for our family.

All I can say is that Dr.Arvind Kumar and his team including Dr. Harsh Vardhan Puri are Indias best thoracic Surgeons. I was wondering here and there in many hospitals due to left side plural effusion each time every doctor infused a tube and removed water but no one has provided proper diagnosis and treatment, at last I got to know about Dr. Arvind and consulted him about my illness he properly diagnosed and told that I have left side Empyema which can be only treated throw Surgery. Than I have gone through Left side VATS converted to open decortication surgery by Dr. Arvind Kumar and Team. Now after the surgery I am fit and want to thanks Dr. Arvind Sir, Dr. Belal Sir, Dr. Harsh Sir for his continue motivation and best treatment. Also thankful to Dr. Shukhram, Dr. Deepika and his all team.... Below few lines I have written about his team. Thank You Dr.Arvind and team.

We are extremely mesmerized by friendly, caring and humble nature of Dr. Arvind ji. He is honest with his approach and always trying hard to serv the patients at best of his capacity. Thank you Dr. Arvind sir and your entire team. We felt like home!!!

My Father , was diagnosed with Cancer of the lung in April 2025. From our very first consultation with Dr. Arvind on 07May25, to our last follow up before we left Gurugram on 04June25 , I must say we had an excellent experience with him and his team of doctors, coordinators, nurses and support staff. - Being such a senior and experienced doctor it was very heartening to see him give his patients so much time, wed literally run out of questions to ask him before he let us go ... And all this with a very endearing smile on his face - The 5th floor which Runs under Dr Arvind is thoroughly professional, and everything runs like a well oiled machine, from Doctor visits, nursing , catering to House Keeping. Its has its own HDU (high dependency Unit ) on floor along with a gym with physio support for exercise to get those lungs pumping post op 🙂 - All in all it was a very satisfying experience, I would also like to thank the other doctors on the team for all the care they showed during the time my father was admitted - Dr. Harsh Vardhan, Dr. Sukram Bishnoi, Dr. Mohan and all the junior doctors under them ... His coordinators Ms Sonali, Mr Srinivas, and the other lady at the desk (I didnt get her name 🙏🏽) for making sure doctor consultations / follow ups were a streamlined process , a big thank you to all of you, from the bottom of our hearts ... And to anyone reading this review , Id recommend Dr. Arvind and his team a 100% for any chest / lung based issues 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

My experience at medanta hospital under supervision of Dr Arvind Kumar was remarkable. All the procedures that were done were transparent and would like to thank all the doctors, physio and nurses for the support during my post recovery process. Specially would like to thank nurse Minu for the extra warmth and care that she had shown when i had a mild fever after my surgery.

"Thankful for the doctors, paramedical staff, nurses, and other hospitality staff for ensuring I not only had an excellent surgery but also a well-rounded post-op recovery at Medanta Gurgaon. The VATS surgery is cost-effective and Dr. Arvind Kumar meticulously goes about his method without making any compromises. The team tried their best to provide pain management and also helped with strength-building. I’d like to mention a few names: thank you to Dr. Sarav, Dr. Mann, Dr. Vivek; Dr Sukhiram and Dr Mohan for their support and guidance during daily patient rounds, Physiotherapist & Nurses: Deepika, Prerna, Priyanka; Dietician Abira, TL nurse and duty nurses: Sister Anu, Kiran, Pooja, Arshdeep, Harmandeep, Jyoti, Bharti, Saumya and others whose name I may be forgetting!; ANM Pooja, GDA Pooja and others; all the pantry staff and especially Pancham bhaiya; all the housekeeping staff who ensured my environment stayed incredibly clean and non-infectious. I especially liked my invigorating walks in the Ayurvedic herb garden on the 5th floor!"

To all the wonderful doctors, nurses and the staff members, I just wanted to say a genuine thank you for the care and kindness you’ve shown me throughout my time with you. To the doctors, Dr Arvind and his entire team, Dr Sukhram sir, Dr Harsh sir, Dr Spoorthy maam and all the others, thank you for your calm, clear explanations and the reassurance you gave me. To the nurses, Sister Tanu, sister Neha, sister Tongam, sister Mamta, Meenakshi maam and all the others, your patience, warmth, and constant support meant more than I can put into words. And a very special thanks to the physiotherapy team, Dr Vineet, Dr Atul and Dr Viyank for cheering me on and helping me keep moving forward, even on the hard days. You’ve all made a tough time feel a lot lighter, and I’m truly grateful for every one of you. I’ll carry that care with me as I continue healing.

The best treatment for lung surgery i have ever met, after-surgery care were the best so far compared to other hospitals where I have been. Dr. Arvind and his team were very professional and they did the best job freeing my mom from stage 3 cancer.

"I was struggling with pleural thickening in my right lung for almost two years. After trying various treatments without much relief, I consulted Dr. Arvind Kumar, and it turned out to be the turning point in my health journey. He recommended VATS decortication surgery, and I’m so grateful that I went ahead with it. The surgery was successful, and what followed was an incredibly well-managed recovery process. Dr. Arvind Kumar and his team were dedicated, professional, and truly focused on my long-term health. Just a day after the surgery, Dr. Vineet Shekhawat guided me through post-surgery physiotherapy, which played a vital role in speeding up my recovery. Dr. Sukhram Bishnoi regularly checked on me, offering not just medical care but also consistent motivation that kept me going every day. The hospital dietician provided me with a tailored diet plan that I was very satisfied with, and it supported my recovery beautifully. Every member of the hospital staff was compassionate, responsive, and made sure I felt cared for throughout my stay. Dr. Arvind Kumar and his team do not just treat a condition — they work to ensure the lifetime well-being of their patients. Their emphasis on surgery, proper medication, and especially post-operative exercises helped me recover much faster than expected. I am deeply thankful to Dr. Arvind Kumar and his entire team for giving me a new lease on life. I highly recommend them to anyone seeking expert and compassionate lung care"

Excellent Doctor and team, I came to Medanta for VATS lobectomy from Bangladesh having no idea what to expect and despite the apparent crowd and overall busy atmosphere I can assure you that the staff and the overall team has a very professional and knowledgeable attitude. All the nurses and team doctors know what they are doing and Dr Arvind has hands of gold. I would suggest anyone to come here from anywhere in the world. You will not regret, your patient will get the best possible treatment.
