We went for a pregnancy check up after reading the stories from Practo. The doctor was very friendly and approachable. She gave attention to every detail and explained us the exact status of pregnancy after careful examination. Her treatment was effective and systematic. After first 2 visits, we decided to proceed with the doctor.
Since the first appointment till the delivery, it was really good experience. We spent very little time at clinic and get the efficient treatment. The doctor suggested scannings outside of clinic for more clarity. We found this was appropriate. She tackled every single problem with precision and empathy.
My wife was near 7th month and it was risky. The doctor handled it perfectly. She owned complete responsibility till the delivery of baby. We were blessed with baby boy.
I appreciate the doctor's skills, ********** professionalism, empathy, accountability and the sense of responsibility. We are very much grateful to Dr. Deepthi.

I would like to begin with expressing our gratitude towards Dr. Deepthi for all the care, guidance and help during my journey of pregnancy.
As this was our first baby, we were very cautious and were looking for doctor whom we can trust completely through this phase.
We decided to consult Dr. Deepthi based on online reviews and started with video consulting. We had so many doubts and questions. She answered those so well, provided guidance on how we should approach henceforth. Based on that experience, we decided to consult Dr. Deepthi through this entire journey, though her clinic was very far from our home.
Dr. Deepthi is very kind, approachable and listens to our problems carefully. Being first pregnancy, we were bit anxious. However, during every visit she helped us understand that everything is normal and there is nothing to worry.
We never had to wait at the clinic, doctor was always available at the time of apppoitment. She also gave her personal number and provided guidance on phone whenever we required. She never prescribed unnecessary medicines, tests or scans. She advised to focus on diet and exercises.
Her clinic, First Care Clinic also is very well maintained, very clean, ventilated and we always felt at home, thanks to courteous staff, special mention of Nivedita. She helped us with appointments and any support required during visit. During COVID they took all the necessary precautions, so we were never worried about health safety.
Luckily for us, Dr. Deepthi started pregnancy scan facility in the clinic and it was truly great experience, we did all our scans post that in First Care Clinic itself. Doctor explained the scan results in details.
Dr. Deepthi always emphasized on importance of natural delivery. Her assesment of the expected delivery time was so accurate.
After getting admitted in the hospital, she regularly visited to check my condition. There as well, she didn't go for unnecessary medication and kept giving confidence for normal delivery.
Finally, we were blessed with healthy baby girl through natural delivery. Heartiest thanks to Dr. Deepthi for all her special efforts.
To find a doctor who cares for you, whom you can trust and for whom your health is paramount is very difficult these days. Dr. Deepthi is one such doctor, so highly recommend her for this special phase in our lives.
For last 9 months or so our life revolved around consultations with Dr. Deepthi, we always looked forward to next visit to the clinic. And I'm sure, we will continue to visit Dr. Deepthi in future for medical guidance and otherwise too.
Thank you very much Dr. Deepthi...!

I’m so grateful to Dr Deepthi and her staff (especially Niveditha and Asha) at First Care Clinic for my care over the last 4-5 years. I first consulted Dr Deepthi for irregular periods and PCOS, and immediately felt reassured and confident about my health thanks to her positive encouragement and detailed explanations. Dr Deepthi always takes time to understand my concerns at a personal level, and helps me understand the medical and technical aspects even as a layperson. This is invaluable after my experiences with doctors who were brisk and rarely explained medical jargon.
We were very nervous about our journey to conceive, but Dr Deepthi’s pro-active approach gave us a lot of confidence. During pregnancy as well, Dr Deepthi was promptly available through the staff whenever we needed. She ensured that baby and I were monitored for any of my concerns, however small or unlikely. One BIG advantage of consulting at First Care Clinic is that we could quickly complete all regular scanning, lab work and monitoring at the clinic itself, instead of running between diagnostic centres, wasting time in waiting rooms etc.
Regarding delivery and postpartum, we felt simply blessed to be in the hands of Dr Deepthi and First Care staff with their attention to detail and personal care for us. We felt prepared for birth after having many detailed conversations with the doctor and had all our queries clarified well in advance. During labor, our birth plan suddenly changed from vaginal to c-section due to medical necessity, yet everything went smoothly thanks to Dr Deepthi’s calm and kind guidance. In my most vulnerable time, I was grateful to have a doctor to trust implicitly, as a result of the thoughtful, prudent care I have received consistently over the last few years.
I recommend First Care Clinic for any woman who wants to feel empowered and supported in her health and fertility journey.

When we visited Dr Deepthi for the first time a couple of years back, my wife had severe menstrual issues with highly irregular cycles. We also had a lot of lifestyle issues leading to metabolic and hormonal issues. We had tried 3-4 gynaecologists before coming to First Care Clinic, and none of them worked for us.
From that point, Dr Deepthi helped with both medical and lifestyle interventions to get my wife’s PCOS under control. We eventually got the confidence to try for a baby last year. Dr Deepthi helped us throughout this journey: from follicle cultivation to delivery. She has helped us through very tough times: at 16 weeks we learnt that my wife had a cervical weakness which can lead to miscarriage. She immediately suggested the cerclage surgery and performed it herself. At 38 weeks when we saw a complication with the baby, she immediately suggested and performed an emergency C section.
Dr Deepthi has the right mix of empathy, spot-on medical judgment and stern instructions which helped my wife through these periods. A testament to the trust we have on her is, my wife refused to travel to her parents’ for delivery so she can continue to receive care from Dr Deepthi.
It is only because of Dr Deepthi that we have our little angel today, for which we cannot thank her enough.
Nivedita, Asha and the First Care staff were also extremely supportive through this journey.
I highly recommend Dr Deepthi and First Care Clinic for any and all women’s health issues.

I've been under the care of Dr. Deepthi for over three years now, initially seeking help for recurring UTIs. She not only diagnosed the underlying cause but also provided timely and effective treatment. Last year, around April, I found out that I was pregnant, and Maam has supported me a lot. Being pregnant for the first time, I was really confused, excited, and scared at the same time. Deepthi Maam has supported me a lot throughout my pregnancy journey. I always waited for the next month to arrive so that I could see my little one during the scanning period. She has patiently answered all the queries that I asked, and she is always available on phone calls or through messages. The conversations are very transparent. She suggested two hospitals for delivery. One was Apollo Cradle, and the other was Cloudnine. We went ahead with Cloudnine, and it was the best decision for us. I always wanted to go for normal delivery, and Maam really supported me in that decision. I was in labor for 19 hours and finally went ahead with the C section as the baby's heartbeat was decreasing. And she suggested going ahead with the C section for our safety. We agreed with her, and finally I am blessed with a healthy baby boyboy last December. Post-delivery, maam visited the hospital everyday to check on me and helped me with the lactation as well. I will be forever grateful to Maam for giving us such a wonderful experience. She will always be my go-to gynecologist and counselor as well. Her post-delivery care, including lactation support, was invaluable. I must say that the clinic has good radiologist. Both of them are really patient and answered all my queries patiently. It has inhouse lab as well in collaboration with primadiagnostics so we do not have to visit other labs for any tests. I wish that first care clinic has its own OT in future. It would be a great addition to the clinic. And the receptionist is very well behaved, she always calls me one day before appointment to remind me about my visit. She is really friendly, polite and good at her work. I'm forever grateful for Dr Deepthi maam's expertise, compassion, and professionalism, and I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking gynecological care.

Visiting First care clinic was easily one of the best decisions I took in my life! This is my journey with ma'am and her team :)
We started consulting Dr. Deepthi ma'am from my PCOD days and the first time we met ma'am, both my husband and me were convinced that she will be our gyno going forward. Ma'am prescribes medicines only if absolutely necessary and encouraged and educated about making lifestyle changes. Her strength is the way she cares and counsels her patients.
Continued our journey with ma'am in our pregnancy days as well. Believe me I used to look forward to visiting the clinic and talk to ma'am. She has different aura that you cannot miss :) She answered every question we had and always explained the bed course of action clearly. From day one she encouraged to have a healthy lifestyle in order to have a healthy delivery. Ma'am was reachable everytime we needed. During the labour as well, she was my biggest motivator to go for normal delivery and helped in every single way to have a successful normal delivery. She made sure to check on me multiple times even when I was in hospital. Heartfelt gratitude to ma'am and Dr. Deepthi ma'am you will forever be special in my life! :)
I would like to mention one more person who is also an important person in First care clinic. Ms. Niveditha in the front desk, who greets everybody with a smile and is always such a jovial person. We soon became very good friends. Her service is highly appreciated.
Clinic is very hygienic and well maintained. Also located in prime location. The in-house scanning facility, NST facility is something that helped me greatly and didn't have to move around during pregnancy.
Both my husband and me have already referred Dr. Deepthi ma'am to all our friends and she is now a family doctor and we will continue to refer her to everybody we know going forward as well.
As you can see, the review is long but words are short for the gratitude we have towards Deepthi ma'am and her team :)
