Writing this testimonial for Dr Abhay, first to express my sincere thanks, second to provide an honest feedback which hopefully will help people in similar situation to narrow down a well qualified Orthopedist.
Dr Abhay is meticulous in his approach, takes pains to explain diagnosis very carefully to the patient(educated or otherwise) often switching to a language comfortable to the patient, does not recommend mindless tests(X rays, MRIs etc) or repeat visits unless required. He maintains the balance well in terms of educating the patient to take their own decisions when facing alternatives and not forcing his opinion. He is thorough professional yet puts a patient at ease by asking generic questions and then moving further to his consultation.
I am completely healed for shoulder and well aware of what needs to be done for grade 3 tear of medial meniscus in my knees.
My father visited him for joint aches as well as intense tailbone pain. After consultation, he practices his exercises daily and uses recommended cushion. Both aere big relief.
My mother has frozen shoulder and she is also doing exercises daily which Dr Abhay has been emphatic about so to as to avoid treatments that can be done without. Both my parents didn't want physiotherapy at clinic but exercises at home and Dr Abhay has respected there choice. He has explained them exercises in quite detail and that if done regularly these will help to ease there pain.
In terms of keeping appointments,most times its within 5 mins of arriving at clinic, wait time if any never exceeds 10-15 mins plus Dr Abhay arrives in clinic on time(except once wherein he cancelled appt. due to an emergency surgery).The shoulder knee clinc in Aundh can be located easily and allows me to find a proper parking space nearby, a must nowadays.
