More so, when such unsettling news befalls upon us during rigid lockdowns and pandemic related restrictions. My mother, Mrs Leela Vati’s first diagnosis for CA-Ovary came in July 2020, during the peak of COVID-19 pandemic at an advanced stage of the disease. This was the time when most doctors that I approached were apprehensive due to her progress of the disease and prevailing uncertainty of pandemic related protocols. Exasperated and troubled, I kept running from pillar to pillar for a glimmer of hope. It was at this time that I was referred to Dr Priya Tiwari at Artemis Hospital Gurugram by someone who has had a great experience with her treatment in the past.
At the very outset we were greeted by her coordinator and guided so well about all the procedures and protocols to be followed. Immediately thereafter we were introduced to Dr Priya whose warm smile, welcoming attitude and confidence calmed us straightaway. She seemed very organized and systematic in her work and approach. Her medicines and pep talks have done wonders for my mother’s health and wellbeing. She has responded very well to Dr Priya’s treatment and is still undergoing her chemotherapy post-surgery. Her general health is a lot better than what it was when we first contacted Dr Priya, which augurs well for my mother’s future health and says a lot about our doctor’s expertise.
Dr Priya is very professional with a personal touch and caring demeanor for all her patients. She has a great sense of humor too, which lightens up any tense situation. She listens to all the queries of her patients and their attendants with patience and offers solutions for not only their medical problems but also cheers them up with her articulate and eloquent talk. This motivates us to interact with her freely and discuss any issues that we have. She provides a holistic treatment regimen that includes medicines, lifestyle modifications, care routines, dietary suggestions, mental conditioning, etc. She keeps herself updated with all the latest research in the field of Oncology and is a widely published and cited researcher as well. She is quite active on various social media platforms like YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, etc. where she regularly posts videos and other educational content regarding cancer symptoms, treatment strategies, latest research in this field, etc. for the benefit of the general masses and awareness creation.
A special mention must also be made for her team of junior doctors and support staff who are very well trained and polite in their attitude. They are always available personally, on call or via messaging to sort out any issues that we may be facing. I guess this rubs off from their brilliant team leader Dr Priya’s personality herself.
Dr Priya has all the traits of a great doctor like deep subject knowledge about her field, reassuring personality, clear and concise communication, availability for her patients, etc. In my opinion, she is the best doctor that I have come across, apart from being such a great human being.
It has been almost 3 years now and my mother is responding well to Dr Priya’s treatment. I will forever be grateful to Dr Priya and her team for everything that they have done for my mother. I wish her and her entire staff, all the very best for all their future endeavors.Read less
