I had joint pain in the wrist, fingers of both the hands and pain in hip joints, knee joint and heels. Had a lot of difficulty in level walking and while climbing stairs. I contacted an orthopaedic doctor initially and after being diagnosed rheumatoid arthritis he gave me certain medicines which caused me blister like rashes all over my body and developed mouth ulcer. Blood started coming from my mouth and nose. My skin became black. My haemoglobin level fell to 7. Then I came to know about Dr Darshan Singh Bhakuni who is rheumatologist in Max Hospital Vaishali, Indirapuram, Ghaziabad. I consulted with him immediately. He listened to my problems and issues very patiently. He advised me to stop all the medicines prescribed by the ortho doctor. He then prescribed me medicines related to rheumatoid arthritis and after taking that medicine I have started feeling much better now. He has been very friendly, polite and answered all the queries I had regarding this disease. Thank you doctor for treating my health issues. I highly recommend Dr Darshan Sing Bhakuni for the treatment of rheumatoid arthriris.

*My Mother's Journey to Pain-Free Living with Rheumatoid Arthritis by Dr.Darshan Singh Bhakuni, Max, Vaishali*
In 2000, my mother, Sarla Sharma, was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. The constant pain led her to numerous doctors and medications, but relief remained elusive. On January 18th, 2024, her condition worsened significantly. Local doctors were unable to manage her acute pain. Determined to find help, I searched for rheumatologists in Delhi, considering renowned institutions like Apollo and Max.
That's when I came across Dr. Darshan Singh Bhakuni at Max Vaishali. On that unforgettable night of January 18th, I secured an appointment with Dr. Bhanuki, guided by his expertise and positive patient testimonials. The consultation brought a wave of relief. Dr. Bhanuki not only addressed my mother's pain with an effective medication plan but also clarified the severity of her condition and the potential for managing it. He explained the importance of understanding this long-term disease and devised a pain management strategy.
Crucially, Dr. Bhanuki addressed the overuse of steroids by previous doctors. He weaned my mother off steroids while providing guidance on lifestyle modifications for long-term disease management. Today, on April 8th, 2024, we visited Dr. Bhanuki for a follow-up appointment. Seeing my mother's smile, a sight lost for years, during her interaction with Dr. Bhanuki was truly heartwarming. Dr. Bhanuki's patient-centric approach made us feel empowered and hopeful about managing my mother's condition.

My mother age of 63 was suffering a lot with Arthritis. Her value of arthritis was so hight due to which she could not walk and even fold her hands fingers. I consulted many Drs in past including Physicians, Rheumatologist, Ayurvedic but nothing worked out to cure her problem. I searched for the best Rheumatologist in Ghaziabad and the first name popped up was Maj. Gen. Dr Darshan Singh. When I consulted Dr Darshan at Max and explained the problem. He patiently listened the problem and provided a correct course of action. The best part of our conversation was that he explained course of treatment, care and medicine course to my mother in my mother tongue which helped my mother to understand properly. Upon taking medecine as per the advise, my mother started feeling relaxed after a week. The medicines was also provided minimum which did not have any sode effects to her. It's just 3 week today and my mother has recovered around 90%.My heartfelt thanks to Maj. Gen. Dr Darshan for proving fantastic course of treatment and value added treatment.

** ** *** ** *** **** ****** * **** **** **** ******* I was suffering from serious ankle and other joints pain since 12 November 2023. I consulted many doctors including famous orthopaedic surgeon of Fortis, but all in vain. The orthopaedic surgeon seems to be such indifferent doctor that he didn't bother to go through case history and prescribed simple pain killer.
Then I visited Dr Darshan Singh Bhakuni, at very first visit he diagnosed and prescribed one of the cheapest medicine. Believe me it was magical and I could move easily.
May God bless him with good health. Such a polite and professional doctor he is.

I was under Dr Bhakuni's treatment since March 2023. I was tired of visiting other Dr 's to releive me from this acute pain. I was unable to walk more that 7 mins without pain but after the treatment i can walk normally. Every part of my body was in pain, mainly my lower limbs. It had piercing pain and I was in tears when I entered his chamber. He asked me and examined me very well, understanding how this pain was literally making me bedridden. After all diagnosis he just asked me take one xray of my knees and he assured the pain will get better. He examines and listens carefully. When I was walking out of his chamber in Max Hospital I was smiling. His way of talking and cheering up cured me half there. He is always available in whtsap messages if any question or problem arises. He is friendly and approachable. I am happy that I have atlast found the right doctor to treat me.
