The doctor was very friendly with my 6-year-old niece and took time to comfort her instead of getting frustrated. He explained everything clearly and answered all our doubts.

Dr. Ajinkya Kelkar is brilliant in his field. He listens carefully, examines thoroughly, and pinpoints issues accurately. I'm really glad I went to him.

consultation on practo appexperience was disappointing in terms of communication and follow-up.I had tonsillitis for 3 days with a continuous fever of 101°F, yet the prescription was not shared after the consultation despite repeated follow-ups on the Practo chat. It was only sent after 15–20 hours via WhatsApp, mentioning a possible “glitch.” I shared screenshots and requested confirmation from his end, but initially did not receive a clear response.During a follow-up call, it was mentioned that he got occupied with other patients and missed sending it. *** *********** **** **** ************* *** ** *** **** ***** *** it appeared the prescription had not been sent earlier on the platform.Due to the delay, I had to consult another doctor. ** ****** ******* ** ***** ******* **** *******
I do not recommend Dr. Ajinkya Kelkar as there was no proper response from the office despite my phone calls.
Dr. Ajinkya Kelkar made good observations and provided practical diagnoses. The conversation was easy and made me feel comfortable.
Visited For Ear Wax (Cerumen) Removal
Had an excellent experience. Doctor was patient, kind and solved my issue in just one sitting. No wonder he has a queue of so many patients!
Visited For Eardrum Rupture TreatmentEardrum Rupture
Happy with: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for moneyWait time
My left ear was draining yellow fluid and when I went to my family doctor he diagnosed an eardrum rupture. I got reference from Practo and booked an in-clinic appointment. The wait time was less as I booked appointment in advance. Dr. Ajinkya checked both the ears and cleaned the left ear in order to analyze the rupture. He explained that the perforation is not a huge one and that it should heal on its own. He prescribed ear drops, tablets, a nasal spray (when I complained of having recurring cold) during my subsequent visits and within a span of 3.5 months my eardrum was completely healed. Dr. Ajinkya does not prescribe any unnecessary medications and procedures and unlike other majority of doctors in Pune, who've made medical treatments a moneymaking game, Dr. Ajinkya definitely stands out. I would really recommend this doctor for all your ear, nose and throat ailments.
Visited For Vertigo Treatment
I had a wonderful experience with this appointment. The doctor explained to me everything in detail. And gave me a proper knowledge about vertigo and also about the focus exercises. I am very happy with the overall visit. The doctor has a proper knowledge about everything.
Visited For Eardrum Rupture Treatment
He is very good doctor, very polite and careful about patients. He gives enough time to each patient and explained everything clearly. He cleared my ear very peacefully and I am feeling much better after that. I will highly recommend him to everyone who has any problem in ear.
