How to request a consultation

The practice takes consultation requests on WhatsApp. Send a message and the team will confirm what is available in your city and arrange a time.

Chat on WhatsApp

Suitability for any treatment is assessed individually at the consultation — a request is not a booking for a procedure.

What happens next

01

Get in touch

Send your name, your city, and a line about what you would like help with. Nothing clinical is needed at this stage.

02

A few questions

The team asks about your health goals and relevant medical history, so the consultation starts from a real picture rather than a blank page.

03

Your appointment

You are offered a consultation — in person in Ahmedabad, or online if you live elsewhere.

04

Clinical assessment

Dr. Khanna assesses your case and explains the options that apply to you, including the ones that do not.

No treatment is recommended before assessment. A consultation may conclude that surgery is not appropriate for you, or that a non-surgical pathway is the better starting point. That is a legitimate and common outcome, not a wasted appointment.

What the consultation covers

  • Your weight history and what you have already tried
  • Obesity-related conditions such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure or sleep apnoea
  • Your general health and fitness for anaesthesia, where surgery is being considered
  • The treatment pathways that may apply, with their benefits and their risks
  • What long-term follow-up would involve

Where consultations take place

In-person consultations take place in Ahmedabad, at Kaayantar Clinic and Epic Hospital. Online consultation is available for patients outside Ahmedabad; any procedure is planned only after an in-person assessment. The practice confirms the venue and time when your appointment is arranged.

Before you book

The patient FAQs answer most of what people ask before a first appointment, and the treatment pages set out what each pathway involves. You may also find the BMI calculator a useful starting point — though BMI is a screening figure, not a diagnosis.
