Saifee is an amazing Hospital. -The doctors, nurse and the housekeeping staff all are helpful and co-operative. -The food is also good for the patient as well as the attendee. -The billing process is smooth no hassle whatsoever. -TPA desk is proactive and responsive. -They have a very good provision for relatives/attendees of patient who are staying overnight. There are dedicated bunker beds separate for male and female. -We had selected twin sharing room and the facilities provided was excellent. -Only cons would be the waiting area near the reception is small and gets too crowded. Further Waiting for the lift is another nightmare. Overall, the experience here was good and we did not face much problem. Infact thanks to the nurses and housekeeping staff who are genuinely good.
Saifee Hospital is a Dawoodi Bohra founded multi-speciality hospital at Charni Road, Mumbai, India, overlooking the Arabian Sea. Saifee Hospital is founded by the head of the Dawoodi Bohra faith, Syedna Mohammad Burhanuddin, dedicated the hospital to the memory of his revered father, Syedna Taher Saifuddin. History:- Saifee Hospital was established by the Dawoodi Bohras in 1948 with the aim of providing safe, ethical and affordable medical assistance to people of all faiths and socio-economic backgrounds. In 2000, the foundation of a new hospital on the existing premises was laid down by Dr Syedna Mohammed Burhanuddin. Construction commenced in 2001 and the new hospital was commissioned on 4 June 2005 in the presence of the Prime minister of India, Dr. Manmohan Singh. The architecture of the hospital features a combination of classical Arabian (with domes and arches) and contemporary (with glass curtain facades) styles. Services:- The hospital has approximately 257 beds, as well as 44 ICU beds, and 9 operating theaters, and conducts over 10,000 surgeries a year. Saifee Hospital specializes in bariatric surgeries, cardiology, critical care medicine, dentistry, dermatology, gynecology, hepatology, oncology, neurology, nephrology, ophthalmology, neonatology, high dose radioactive therapy units, and Pressurized Intra Peritoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy (PIPAC). The hospital features a highly advanced Robotic Surgical System to facilitate the surgeon in performing complex but minimally invasive surgery.

I would like to express my heartfelt appreciation for the excellent care provided at Saifee Hospital. I would especially like to thank Dr. Rakesh Shah, the surgeon, for his great skill, professionalism, and compassionate approach. He is truly one of the best doctors, and we are very grateful for his expertise and care throughout the treatment. A special thanks also to Nurse Jhanvi from the 601 Pediatric Department, who was exceptionally kind, attentive, and supportive while taking care of my baby, Dua Khan. She ensured my baby was always comfortable and well looked after. Nurse Jhanvi is our favorite nurse, and we are deeply thankful for her warmth, dedication, and compassion.
One of the worst hospitals in Mumbai that I have been to in recent times. Nursing Staff utterly irresponsible and unprofessional with attitude matching those in Buckingham Palace. Went in for a daycare procedure regarding kidney stent for my wife. Ended up paying 95000/- for 13 hours and a huge haematoma on her forearms thanks to irresponsible nursing. Do not visit this place. Very unprofessional.
I visited Saifee Hospital at 7:00 AM for a scheduled surgery. The night-shift staff handled the billing and guided us to wait in the lobby. We also completed the advance payment for the procedure. Everything went smoothly until the morning shift change. At around 7:00 AM, Ms. Renuka arrived at the counter. I approached her to ask about the expected time for room allotment. Unfortunately, her response was upsetting. Instead of providing clear information, she simply asked us to “be comfortable,” which felt dismissive, especially considering we had chosen this hospital for its reputed service quality. Later, when we inquired about the availability of a daycare room after the procedure, we were informed that the shift had already moved the patient to a general ward. Ms. Renuka mentioned that her colleague had already explained this—however, this information was never communicated to us. If she is seated at the counter, patients expect clear, polite, and helpful communication. Her approach felt unprofessional and added unnecessary stress at a time when patients are already anxious. On a positive note, I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the staff on the upper floor, especially Ms. Sonali and the nursing team. Their kindness, support, and professionalism truly made a difference. Their service reassured me of the care and quality that Saifee Hospital is known for. I kindly request that staff members like Ms. Renuka be trained and educated on patient communication, as individuals visiting a hospital are often already worried or emotionally burdened. Empathy and proper communication can make a significant impact on patient experience.
