Manisha2023-12-20I got my friend’s weight loss surgery done at Star Hospital. We were impressed by Dr Ahluwalia’s clarity of thought on weight loss and Bariatric Surgery. We visited some other hospitals before and were always confused as their versions were very different but here we got answers to all our questions in a very clear way and my friend could gather courage to finally get his Bariatric Surgery done and start living a normal life again. Procedure went smooth as was told and we were out out of hospital very next day. Now we regret delaying this for years!
