I have visited Dr. Praveen for my mom Kidney (CKD) issue, you don’t believe he is such a friendly Doctor and has lots of patience listening to patient queries and answer to every line with a smile.
He always suggests relevant tests and give appropriate treatment.
He is always a phone call away for any suggestion. I will give all the ten stars to him for the outstanding treatment.
Lastly the best part in him is asking patient “what else is your query/issue “ and answer to them with patience.
All the best Doctor Praveen😊
