I always recommend Dr. Archana to every parent I meet. She was the pediatrician, when I delivered my first child at Shashwat Hospital. I found her very pleasant, cool and approachable and since then we are visiting her, it has been over a year and I take my baby for everything starting from a cold,cough to rashes and infections. she doesn't only have friendly behavior but also makes our child comfortable and care for every need.
The most important thing is she gives ample amount of time to discuss any issue, shows interest when discuss problems and also listen it patiently. She is very positive, after the consultation we definitely get a better feeling. Going to her, I am sure that my child will be treated right.

Thank you very much for nice words. Personally l feel it is my duty as a Peadiatrician to pick up problems early. The hightech bilirubinometer which l have also helps me detect level of jaundice without pricking tin

She is money maker and treat patience as an ATM machine
1. Her consultation charger is not '300' it's wary person to person
2. Vaccination charges are too high and charging for govt subsidised vaccines like pentavalent,
She is money maker and treat patience as an ATM machine
1. Her consultation charger is not '300' it's wary person to person
2. Vaccination charges are too high and charging for govt subsidised vaccines like pentavalent, polio
3. Free vaccine also she is charging
4 she should inform parent, which vaccine she is putting and how much it's going to cost them
5. 2% extra need to pay while using any card
We have visited 14 the May for my 6 weeks baby immunisation. Since, her review was high on Practo we didn't enquirer much. First visit she has given pentavalent (diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough, hepatitis B and Haemophilus influenza type b) and rotavirus . For these she charged 4000rs..since after 24 hrs we need to visit again and baby fever we didn't check with other dr and pharmacy. Second visit on 16th she put 5500 rs bill for pneumococcal and polio IM..we paid buz of no choice. Total amount approx 10000 along with card charges..it costs too much .. We referred pharmacy and other pedarric actual price are very very less
1: pentavalent vaccine free at govt hospital; with private 700rs / 600 can buy at pharmacy
2: rotavirus just 500-600 rs and we paid 1800 rs
3: disgusting one pneumococcal 4000 she charged , actual price 1350rs
4: IM polio one we paid 1500 , actaul 500 rs and free at govt hospital
Good thing got all bills for future references
Sincerely think twice to visit her .. she is unaffordable for middle class patience ..looking help also to report this issue publicly so I can report proper channel

It is highly regrettable that you have posted this review based on incorrect information and facts. I would like to clarify your concerns.
1.The consultation charges for follow up consultation are always less than first consultation. So there can be variations in charges.
2.IT IS TOTALLY FALSE THAT I AM CHARGING FOR FREE VACCINES. Free and subsidized vaccines are only available at government dispensaries. All private practitioners have to buy vaccines from retailers and no vaccine is given by government to private practitioners at subsidized rate or free of cost. For those who want free vaccines one can always approach government hospitals where vaccines and consultations is free of cost.
3.It is always our policy to give information about the vaccine and its cost to enable parents to make an informed decision about taking the vaccine.
4.THE COST OF VACCINES DIFFERS ACCORDING TO BRAND AND COVERAGE OF DIFFERENT STRAINS OF BACTERIA.
The cost of Pneomococcal vaccine of Rs 1350/ that you have mentioned is that of 10 valent vaccine while 13 valent vaccine costs Rs. 4000/ which was given to your child. Same is true with other vaccines.
5.Vaccination charges at our Hospital are on par with other private clinics. Additional charges are levied upon as per consultation, general queries along with vaccination which is most of the times sought by parents.
6.We take great care in maintaining the cold chain required to maintain potency of vaccine. WE HAVE SOPHISTICATED TEMPERATURE MONITORING INSTRUMENTS ATTACHED TO OUR VACCINES STORAGE FACILITY where required temperature for vaccines is monitored and maintained. We are one of the very few who have this sophisticated facility.
