Not every patient in South Gujarat can easily travel to Surat for an initial consultation. That’s why Dr. Prayas Kumar, plastic and reconstructive surgeon, holds dedicated weekly consultations in both Navsari and Bardoli — bringing the first step of care closer to home, before any procedure takes place at the main Surat centre.
Consultation Availability in Navsari
Dr. Kumar consults in Navsari every Wednesday, from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM [CONFIRM]. This session is consultation-only, it’s where your case is assessed, questions are answered, and a treatment plan is discussed, before any procedure is scheduled at the Surat centre.
Consultation Availability in Bardoli
Dr. Kumar consults in Bardoli every Wednesday, from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM [CONFIRM]. Like the Navsari session, this is a consultation-only visit, allowing patients from Bardoli and surrounding areas to meet Dr. Kumar directly without traveling to Surat first.
What Happens at a Satellite Consultation?
The consultation format is the same as at the Surat centre: Dr. Kumar reviews your medical history, discusses your concerns and goals, examines the relevant area, and explains which options are appropriate for you. You’ll leave with a clear next step, whether that’s a scheduled procedure, further tests, or simply more information to consider.
What to Bring to Your First Visit
- Any previous medical records or reports relevant to your concern
- A list of current medications, if any
- Photographs of the area of concern in different lighting, if relevant (e.g., for hair loss or scarring)
- A list of your own questions – consultations are unhurried, so there’s time to ask them
Where Are Procedures Performed?
Consultations in Navsari and Bardoli are assessment visits only. Surgical procedures are performed at the main Surat centre, which is also where 24/7 emergency care is available. Your consultation will include clear guidance on scheduling and what to expect for the procedure itself.
Why Dr. Kumar Holds Consultations Outside Surat
Traveling for an initial consultation can be a barrier to getting care, especially when someone isn’t yet sure a procedure is right for them. Holding regular sessions in Navsari and Bardoli means patients across the region can get a professional opinion and a clear treatment plan close to home, before deciding on next steps.
