Booked via Practo.. Wait time was exactly 30mins.. Very cool handling.. Took time to read patient history.. Explained what to expect and what signs should be considered serious.. Assured it is not serious now..Explained the syrups and their use and dosage clearly.. All of this in 4 to 5 mins.. Didn't feel like it was short or in a rush..
