Many of Dr. Vishal Choksi’s patients travel from other cities in Gujarat – Surat, Vadodara, Rajkot, Bhavnagar, Jamnagar, Kutch and Mehsana – and from Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra and abroad for head and neck cancer treatment. Planning ahead reduces the number of days you need to spend away from home.
Step 1: Send Your Reports Before You Travel
WhatsApp your biopsy report, scan reports and images to +91 97277 03693. The team will tell you whether any tests are missing so they can be arranged on arrival.
Step 2: Plan Your Visit
- First visit: usually one to three days for consultation and any remaining tests
- Surgery: hospital stay from one day (thyroid, small procedures) to two weeks (major surgery with reconstruction), plus a few days nearby after discharge
- Radiation, if needed: daily treatment for about six weeks – many outstation patients stay in Ahmedabad during this time
