The consultation fees being charged is Rs500= while on site it is shown as Rs 400= only. I have been troubled by a skin problem of the scalp. He prescribed medicines for the problem and told me to visit the clinic on 29th March or 30 th March 2022. I think the proper thing was for him to advise that if the problem still persisted after 5 days, I should visit him again.

One more thing I noticed was that the receptionist was also providing medicines he prescribed i.e. sale of medicines was also taking place in the clinic. When I enquired from the receptionist she told me it was not necessary to buy the medicines from her.

Though this practice of supplying medicines at the clinic may be said to be an additional service and in fact I have found many doctors doing the same. I find this practice very suspicious. To sum it up, I have not purchased the medicines, because the trust factor in the doctor is lacking. I will consult my family doctor who is a general physician and not a skin specialist or better still the problem being a minor one I can heal it by applying home remedies.
