Best urology doctor in Delhi (India) for urethral stricture.

I had urethral stricture treatment done by Dr Vijayant Govinda Gupta & had OIU surgery done by Sir.

My surgery was happened on 17 June and I liked the doctors way of treating and speaking he was kind and very good to me, the surgery was good and my problem is solved. I am thankful to doctor. The staff was also good and very helpful.

I had a very Good experience with Dr Vijayant, he is very kind and listens to all the issues of the patient carefully. He is a highly experienced Doctor. I would definitely recommend him for patients suffering from urological issues like urethral stricture problem. The staff is also spot on, the moment you go over there they ask you for water, tea.

The only issue which I faced was of waiting time which is around more than 2 hours I suggest that it should be reduced to half hours or so, apart from this everything was good.

Thanks Doctor & thanks for O.T staff Mr Rahul
