Visited For Scar Treatment
Happy with:Â Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for moneyWait time
I had visited Dr kushal for my acne problems 1 year ago and he helped me in understanding the root cause of the acne problems i was having. he guided me in understanding what are the treatment courses that i can opt for to get rid of them and suggested the best more effective and long term results approach. With continuous followup and guidance in a span of 3 months the results were showing up. In 7-8 months span my face was clean. Now it's almost 10 months and i have got rid of my acne issues. *** ** *** **** ************* ** ************ *** would recommend everyone to pay a visit for treating your acne issues.

Visited For Skin Rash Treatment
Woke up early in the morning to get to Kushal clinic at the time of appointment (9am). On reaching there, I found the clinic closed, and the security told me to come back after 9.30am. Though I was on a tight time constraint because I had to go to office which is half way across the city, I decided to wait. After a while, I got a call from his assistant, saying that the doctor won't be visiting today due to some emergency. While having an emergency is acceptable (though looking at other reviews, it seems its a norm here rather than an exception), atleast some prior intimation would have helped a lot. Besides, taking appointments regularly from 9am and opening the clinic post 9.30am is not nice, especially on a weekday when patients may not have the luxury of waiting for hours past the appointment time. I would request for the time slots to be updated properly so that people don't get misguided.
I won't recommend. I visited him for pimples and dandruff issue, without looking much he gave medicines in 5 minutes and asked me to come back after 1.5 month. By that time my pimples got reduced but hair fall and dandruff problem was still there. He suggested me to go for some blood tests which costed Rs. 8500.
Tests were kind of normal with Vitamin B12 and D deficiency. He simply asked to continue previous medicines and consult a physician for medicines for deficiency. That doctor wrote 25 injections and tablets for 3 months. After 2 months my pimples got worse than before and dandruff is still as it was before.
I wasted Rs. 15,000 there but of no use. Better find some other doctor.
Visited For Laser Hair Removal - Face
The doctor seemed quite nice. He's was not in a hurry (I was the only patient though) listened to my problem and suggested I go for a laser and asked me to come back later in the evening for the same. This is where the real problem started. The technician who was supposed to do the laser had no clue on how to operate the machine and in spite of tat the doctor was not around to help her. So after wasting nearly 3 hrs of my time I decided to walk out with no laser but few cuts due to her impeccable shaving skills. Total waste.
Visited For Cysts

I visited the clinic for a cyst on the face. Doctor checked and told me that it would need Lazer treatment and cost about Rs.5000. I agreed to the treatment and when we began the procedure **** ******** **** *** ** ****** *** * ****** *** *** ******** *** *** ***** *** ******* * **** *** **** *** **** **** * ******* ** ******** I was still charged Rs.5000 for the "Procedure" when I said that it was too much, I was told that this was the rate for any procedure. They refused to reconsider. * **** ************ * I did not create a scene there since there were other customers there. But my recommendation to anyone going there, make sure you completely understand the "Procedure" to be administered and rates ** **** **** ***** **** ** *** ********* ***** ***** **** ***** Really upset with the bad experience.
Visited For Wart Removal
Hoped for better:Â Value for money
Me and my husband went for wart removal, I had a medium size on my fingure and my husband had a very small one on foot . Since my husband already had gone through wart removal process ** **** *** ** **** *** ******* *** **** ******* ********* ********* ** **** ** ****** While taking appointment I asked receptionist to give me idea about charges and she mentioned 1000-2000 max. I booked an appointment and went through the procedure. At the time of making bill, she mentioned 4000 each for wart removal and along with other charges like consultancy and medicine. She was about to make bill of 12000,but we raised a concern and argued with her. She went to ask doctor and than mentioned 3000 for both of us. This was the weired experience I have ever had. Please value your money *** ***** *** *******

Waited for over an hour, and when the doctor finally arrived, he seemed in more of a rush than even us patients. ** ********* ******* * ********* **** **** ** **** **** *** ******** ******** **** now I've learnt, shouldn't have been touched till the inflammation had subsided! So of course it came back and I'm now undergoing the same treatment all over again at the same spot. I was quite taken aback when, after the procedure, the doc causally said that if there was any major scarring, I could get cosmetic treatment in the future! No mention of this before or during the procedure. Prescribed 1000mg Augmentin twice a day, * **** *** **** ********** *** *** **** ****** *********** ********* ** ***** **** *** ****** ************ *** ********* *** ****** without explaining what the steps were.. He just seemed in a rush to finish and get to the next patient. A very sorry experience
