Priyadarshni Skin Clinic, Dilshad Garden

Really, really disappointed. This review is going to be a long and a genuine one.

We visited Dr. Smita for my mum’s treatment as we were uncertain about the ongoing one, wanted to get a second opinion. I was sitting in the waiting area, while my brother and mum were in her room. We had forgotten the previous doctors prescription at home, which was wrong on our part, but she made such a HUGE fuss about it. I could hear her, practically screaming at them and humiliating them. She was very rude.

After all that, she gave the medicines and told us to show her the previous prescription once. Now, when asked about explaining the timings for whole dosage she said, she’ll explain when we BUY the medicines and show her then she will explain us, which was very strange to me because... I had never heard a doctor explain the medication dosage AFTER buying them.

Anyway, we got the prescription from our home, and I went alone to her room as my brother was waiting outside.

Biggest mistake. When I told her that I hadn’t bought the medications yet, and had just came in to show the prescription, she lashed out on me as if I had murdered someone. “No why would you do this? you weren’t even here. You don’t know this-that” which again, is okay if I was genuinely wrong. The only fault of ours is that I went in without the patient, or the previous attendee (who, mind you, was right outside if she would’ve asked me to call him instead). I personally don’t think how it was such a huge deal, but okay. I would’ve apologised, even for nothing, if she calmly asked me to, but my god, this lady started screaming her lungs out. I was afraid she’d start throwing things at me. Lol. All of this, because I asked her to speak in a calmer tone with me. She started asking me about my profession, and what I do. Which I think is totally bizarre, because it had nothing to do with our conversation. Then and there, I came to know of her arrogance and how egotistical this woman is. I kept on asking for the prescription, which she was refusing to give back. I just wanted to get out of there, but she made a whole scene. In front of all her patients. When she finally got to know, that I’m a student, she started moral policing me. “Is this how a student talks to a doctor?” Like, come on! We have every right to enquire about the problem. She was talking as if she was doing us a favour by just talking. Ma’am, we are paying you. You can receive all sorts of educational degrees and qualifications, that won’t make you a good doctor if you don’t know how to form a good rapport with your patient. Your job is to make us understand what we’re dealing with, not scream at us for asking questions. The way she handles with her patients and tone of this doctor is absolutely disturbing, such a bad experience. I hope no one has to go through what we did today.

Due to my skin infection, I was very traumatized and tensed because no one was clearly explaining it to me then a friend recommended me to visit Dr. Smita priyadarshni. She clearly elaborated the entire situation of my infection. How it is caused, why it is caused, how it can be treated and what precautions are to be taken, whether it’s something to be serious about or not etc…. She explained everything so smoothly that the entire tension regarding the situation just vanished. Another thing that I just admired about her was her knowledge and skill in her area of expertise, she keeps herself updated, clear and straightforward which is reflected in her work ethics and confidence. Her work space is very professional, comfortable and trustworthy, thus I have an absolute faith in her. She listens to the patient carefully and patiently by giving enough time to each one of them. She’s the reason my hope is restored in doctors. Immense gratitude for her.

I highly recommend Dr. Smita Ma'am because she provides the medication and explains the root cause of the problem. Her strictness towards her treatment made me follow my skincare routine religiously. The medicines that she gives are also very light and easy to apply. Even during my chemical peel, she explained what she was applying on my face and its purpose. Even her staff is so nice and gentle that just in case you forget something about medicines, they keep explaining it leaving the patient satisfied. Thank you so much, ma'am.

She is very aggresive and unhygienic..she does not treat her patient well..she embarassed me in front of her staff and patient she made me very uncomfortable *** *** ******* **** * ***** ** * ***** *** ***** ** ***** ******* ** *** ****** ******* ***** ****** ******** *** ********* **** * ***** *** ********* *** ******* ** ** ***** *** **** ***** ** ****** **** ***** *** **** ***** ******* she didn't even diagnose me and just prescribe a large no.
