I am under Dr.Patankar's treatment from 2012 for Epilepsy and I have been living seizure free with medicines for many years thanks to him. He is very polite, will talk to you as long as you want, will answer all of your questions and explain the reasons for any ailment/medicine side effect. He is attached to multiple hospitals so he gets late but you can ask that at the time of appointment. Emergency patients also come in so time might increase. But that's okay. You need to think whether wait time is important or your life! His judgement is perfect and has even treated me on the call when I have been away for work and needed medical advice.
Good and efficient diagnosis with practical remedies. Prescribed intensities of pain medicines and not just a one strong solution. I found this method to be more effective than taking strong pills even for the relatively lighter attacks. Also suggested things to keep in mind in case continuity of visit was not maintained.

This doctor is just interested in earning quick income.
He sits at paramount hospital in panvel and he charges 800 rs just for getting patient seated im the room for mere 3 mins.
My father had been seeking treatment for possibly Parkinson, 1.5 years back has been callimg him at an intervel of a week initially amd them weekly and now monthly.
Each time he doesnt listems to what patient has to say.
He just prescribs the most expensive medicies and asks to leave without even wanting patient to share his experience and issues pertaining to illness.
Today my father went with few medical reports amd xray he had taken as he had vertigo amd possible osteoporosis, but he refained from seeing amy reports and asked attendent to send next patient even befoe we were out of the opd room.
Very bad experience. Let me tell you there weew 70 patients waiting for him as he was late by1.5 hrs too as usual.

Dr Ramesh Patankar practice at Zen hospital too never explains you about your health status .He never changes prescription as he writes same medicines in old prescription. The pharmacy stores people never accept old prescription as he never changes medicine date. ** ** **** ********** ** ****** ******* ********* ********** Very rude doctor .High time better late than never go for second opinion and proper doctor .Most important Dr Patankar doesn't even bother to see if there is any improvement in health .under emergency you can't contact him .If you contact him by chance to explain that you visited him a week before and you are facing some issues on call he will say come again then he will take money and write same stuff again. Extremely bad experience with this doctor .

My father's health did not improve at all. Every time my father visited this doc, he was very rude.
My father said " I will prefer dying rather than visiting him or taking his treatment". This doctor wont even talk to you properly. Doctor supposed to talk to you nicely. He is not good with old people (my father is 67 years old). Doctor should be able to take away your pain by just talking but this doctor will double your pain.

I was told that registration fee was Rs. 250/-. However, the hospital charged me Rs. 350/-. Also, I was told that I was the first patient but they let two patients in before me.
