Patient Stories for Dr. Mehul Thakkar
Happy with: Value for moneyExplanation of the health issueWait timeDoctor friendlinessTreatment satisfaction
My mother has this problem of Asthma from Childhood.
She was admitted in the hospital thrice before visiting Dr. Mehul.
Every time, she was diagnosed for infection but none of the doctors actually were able to trace why does she keep falling sick with the same problem.
Dr. Mehul explained us the cause and treatment in details. She was hospitalized under his supervision and is satisfied to the fullest with his approach towards treating the disease.
She is really happy with the treatment and this has added to a prodigious amount of confidence in her. In fact she thinks he has given her a new life. Now she understands her problems much better than before. And she has someone to trust and look up to.
Thank you so much !

Visited For Bronchial Asthma Treatment

I chose the 4:30pm slot which guaranteed me minimal wait time. My family doctor recommended me for a second opinion for chest specialist. Visit to this doctor was totally worth as he was able to understand the situation within a jiffy after peeking into family doctors prescriptions. He analyzed my Issues while discussing with me and examining me with stethoscope. He concluded with full confidence what was wrong with me. Precautions, remedies and all. This meeting was not more than 3 minutes and I am out of his cabin. Totally freaking Professional he is.
