Fistula Treatment in Ravet — Sharvari Hospital, Pune
Ravet’s lakeside apartments and PCMC amenities keep growing, yet complex proctology still benefits from a hospital that performs fistula mapping weekly — not once a month. Yes, Sharvari Hospital is about 7 km and roughly 15 minutes by car, but families tell us the short highway-style stretch toward Wakad–Pimple Nilakh buys peace of mind: modular OTs, ICU backup, blood bank ties, and Dr. Kundan Kharde’s 17+ years / 5000+ surgeries experience.
ISO 9001:2015 certification, 50+ insurance partners, and 24/7 emergency matter when a fistula turns into a painful abscess on a Sunday evening. Settling for a tiny centre without imaging or anaesthesia cover can cost more in repeat surgeries than the fuel for a focused trip.
We welcome Ravet patients who want honest counselling — sometimes laser is ideal, sometimes LIFT or staged seton is wiser — without upselling.
If you are comparing “who is closest” versus “who will still be there if bleeding starts,” remember that fistulas occasionally declare emergencies. A hospital that can admit, operate, and observe overnight removes the midnight scramble of calling friends for referrals.

Fistula facts for Ravet families
Fistulas can simmer for months, causing low-grade fever or fatigue that busy parents blame on “stress.” Addressing the tract improves quality of life more than multivitamins.
Children notice when a parent winces while sitting; treating the issue restores normal family outings.
If you already tried drainage elsewhere, bring records — recurrence mapping is different from first-time fistulas.
Surgical options after your assessment
Laser: Minimises some external wounds when anatomy fits.
VAAFT: Clarifies branching tracts before cutting.
LIFT / advancement: Workhorse solutions for muscle involvement.
Seton: Protects you from dangerous premature closures.
Fistulotomy: Still best for genuinely low tracts.
Exam under anaesthesia: When outpatient palpation is inconclusive, a short EUA in a monitored setting can finalise the surgical map — safer than guessing in an awake patient who is in pain.
Why the drive from Ravet is worth it
Volume & pattern recognition: High surgical volume sharpens judgment on tricky tracts.
Family logistics: One well-planned surgery beats multiple Mondays lost to re-dressings at random centres.
Emergency safety net: If bleeding or sepsis occurs, you are already in a hospital that can escalate.
Insurance teams: PCMC policies often match our network — we help with Pimpri–Chinchwad employer schemes too.
Patients sometimes combine the visit with errands toward PCMC or Wakad.
Driving from Ravet to Pimple Nilakh
Join the main arterial road heading toward Wakad / Balewadi, then follow signs for Vishal Nagar and Gulmohor Park. Distance is about 7 km; 15 minutes is typical, 20+ during rush. Save the hospital number before starting in case you need voice directions at the final turn.
Shared cabs work well for relatives who cannot drive — ensure the return trip is booked before sedation.

Frequently asked questions
- Should Ravet patients travel to Sharvari Hospital for fistula surgery?
- If you want laser/VAAFT/LIFT options with full hospital backup, the ~15-minute drive to Pimple Nilakh is usually worthwhile compared with under-equipped local cut-and-drain cycles.
- How many follow-ups are needed after fistula surgery for Ravet residents?
- Typically weekly initially, then spaced intervals until wounds mature. Proximity still helps even if you are 7 km away.
- Can grandparents from Ravet get easy wheelchair access?
- Yes — ramps, lifts, and porter assistance are available; mention needs when booking.
- What if I cannot afford laser — is cheaper surgery available?
- Yes. We recommend the right operation, not the most expensive. Some fistulas do well with simpler techniques.
- Do Ravet patients need MRI on day one?
- Only when complexity warrants it — not as a default revenue step.
- Is night emergency available if I am coming from Ravet late?
- Our emergency is 24/7. Call ahead so triage prepares for abscess drainage if needed.
- Can both parents stagger visits from Ravet if childcare is tight?
- Yes — we allow nominated attendants and can summarise instructions for the partner who could not attend.
- Will traffic from Ravet affect wound pain after surgery?
- Use cushions, avoid pothole-heavy routes, and prefer smoother highway segments where possible. We provide pain-tailoring advice before discharge.
