My name is Tahir Ali, I am 54 years old and a resident of Lucknow. I consulted Dr. Shashikant Gupta Sir at Apollo Medics Hospital, Lucknow with complaints of poor urine stream, dysuria, and a persistent feeling of incomplete emptying of the bladder.
Dr. Shashikant Sir examined me thoroughly and advised a few important investigations. After reviewing the reports, he diagnosed me with Proximal Bulbar Urethral Stricture.
About My Diagnosis – Proximal Bulbar Urethral Stricture
This condition occurs when the urethra becomes narrowed due to scarring, which blocks or slows the flow of urine. Because of this, I was facing difficulty in passing urine, burning sensation, and incomplete voiding. Dr. Sir explained everything clearly in simple language so I could understand the actual problem inside.
About My Surgery
After discussing all treatment options, Dr. Shashikant Sir advised a planned surgical procedure:
* Cystoscopy
* Urethroplasty with Buccal Mucosa Graft** Laser BNI (Bladder Neck Incision)
He explained how the surgery would be done, how the buccal mucosa graft helps in widening the urethra, and how it gives long-term relief. His explanation removed all my fear and gave me confidence.
My Experience After Surgery........
My surgery was successfully completed, and today I am feeling much better than before. My urine flow has improved, there is no pain or burning, and I finally feel relieved. I am extremely satisfied with the treatment and results.

Special Thanks
Along with Dr. Sir, I would also like to thank his assistant Mr. Mayank, who supported me throughout the process, guided me about the surgery steps, and helped me during every visit.
Now I visit Sir regularly for monthly follow-ups, and I am very happy with my recovery.
Final Words says...
I highly recommend Dr. Shashikant Gupta Sir to anyone experiencing urinary problems. He is not only an excellent surgeon but also a very kind and dedicated doctor.

Visited Dr. Neha Negi (Obstetrician)
Had a wonderful experience with Dr Neha Negi. I want to express my deepest gratitude for the outstanding care I received during my pregnancy. From the initial consultations to the post-operative care, she was always available to answer my questions and address my concerns. Her ability to explain complex medical terms in a clear and concise manner helped alleviate my anxiety and I'm thrilled with the healthy outcome for my baby. Her kindness, empathy, and professionalism make her an exceptional doctor. I'm so grateful to have her as my doctor during this life-changing experience.
Visited Dr. U K Misra (Neurologist)
Senior but impolite.. My mother had been experiencing severe neck pain from sometime., she finally decided to visit UK mishra for consultation. She booked an appointment with him ****** *** ** ** **** **** ***** ******** ****** *** in return she was not heard out properly of when she was explaining her history of health and was prescribed some generic pain meds for a fee of Rs 1k . despite the appointment she had to wait for 2 hours to meet the doctor as well. No explanation no tests were advised to rule out the cause of the issue.. some doctors are arrogant and just non people centric and Rr UK mishra was definitely one of them.
Visited Dr. Mayank Somani (General Physician)
** ******** *** rude doctor. He was referred by one of my known doctors, ******* **** ** ***** ** *** ***** *** *** ****** **** ***** ** **** ***** ********* ***** I went there with all the tests and reports, yet he asked me to do all the tests all over again, ignoring the fact that we already had all the reports, which were only a week or 10 days old. ** ***** ***** *** ****** **** ** **** ***** * **** ****** ******* ** ********* ***** **** ** ***** * **** ***** **** ******* ***** ***** **** ******** *** ******We were left with no other option *** **** ****** to do all the tests again, which cost us Rs. 10,000. And again, just like the previous reports, nothing was diagnosed. Even after that, he asked for another test which would have cost Rs. 25,000. When I asked him if there was any indication that required this test, he said “NO.* *********** **** *** *** *** ****** ** ** ** **** **** ** **** *** **** ********* **** ** ******** *** ******These people really don't care about the patient. He is just sitting there with no concern for the patient’s well-being. I would really never recommend him to anyone!! Never!!

Visited Dr. Mayank Somani (General Physician)

Visited Dr. U K Misra (Neurologist)
My experience has been that Dr. U.K. Mishra is such a highly skilled, experienced, *** ******** doctor that no matter how much I speak about him, it always feels less.
My grandfather’s condition had become so critical that we had almost accepted it as his final time. However, the doctor gave him a new life. I will remain forever grateful and will always remember his name with respect.
May he always stay healthy and continue to heal and serve people in the same way.
