I visited Dr Parikh because of pain in both my knees (too much/sudden exercise). I was told by other doctors that the pain was a result of joint space narrowing (ie -- wearing away of the cartilage in the knee joint).
Dr Parikh takes her time -- not just to examine a patient before she makes her diagnosis (which is on point), but also to listen. She caught onto a tiny bit of information while we were talking, which turned out to be a big hint to get to the root of the problem (strength and flexibility). What I love about her is that she makes me feel completely at ease. Also love that I'm not on any allopathic / other medication, just exercises to become stronger and get my muscles to work properly.
Dr Parikh is great at what she does because (1) she knows her stuff and she explains it well -- I felt the difference even with slight modifications to the exercises; (2) she wants you to listen to your body and encourages you to make better choices (for me, that means eating better and exercising regularly/without random and excessive spurts); (3) she is kind, warm (and equally fierce, but only in a way that makes you never want to skip your exercises!) and accessible -- always ready to answer your questions.
The most thorough professional I have been to. I'm only a few weeks into recovery, but I'm making good progress with her. Super happy, highly recommend this doc if you're looking for a healthy way to recover or get fit.

I went to Dr. Tvisha after an Internet search and great ratings. I was feeling extreme tiredness, muscle soreness, and was feeling exhausted since long.
She recognised accurately the cause of my problem and suggested dietary inclusions and accordingly recommended the appropriate exercise form in my life- in my case Yoga. In a short time my energy, health, skin could see the difference and rejuvenation.
She is friendly, approachable, makes you at ease with no unnecessary tests.
