About Dr. Neelam Khatwani
Dr. Neelam Khatwani is a fellowship-trained Vitreoretinal Surgeon based at The Sight Avenue Eye Hospital in Gurgaon, Delhi NCR. With over a decade of focused experience, she specialises in the diagnosis and surgical management of complex retinal conditions — from diabetic retinopathy and macular holes to retinal detachment and retinopathy of prematurity. Patients and colleagues alike recognise her for the calm confidence she brings into every consultation and operating room.
Dr. Khatwani's training journey reflects a genuine commitment to excellence. She earned a Gold Medal in her DOMS examinations and went on to complete two prestigious fellowships — one in Vitreoretinal Surgery at H. V. Desai Eye Hospital in Pune, a nationally respected centre for advanced retinal training, and another in Medical Retina at Shroff Eye Centre in Delhi, where she deepened her skills in diagnostic workup and non-surgical management of retinal disorders. This dual fellowship background gives her a well-rounded perspective: she knows when to operate and, equally importantly, when not to.
What patients and their families often mention first is how approachable Dr. Khatwani is. She takes the time to explain diagnoses in plain language, walk through treatment options without rushing, and make sure every person — whether they have come from across India or from abroad — feels genuinely cared for. She consults in English, Hindi, and Sindhi, which helps many patients feel at ease from the very first appointment.
For international patients exploring treatment in India, Dr. Khatwani represents the kind of specialist worth travelling for: rigorous academic training, microsurgical precision, and a patient-first philosophy that puts trust and clear communication at the heart of every care plan. Through Gaf Healthcare, coordinating your consultation and treatment at The Sight Avenue Eye Hospital is straightforward, with support at every step of your journey.
