Thanks to Practo and the many informative reviews that helped me to consider Dr. Niraj Joshi first back in 2021. In this age where core values are trumped by commercialism often particularly in the field of medicine, i am most grateful to have stumbled into Dr. Niraj who is a beacon of hope for those looking for a doctor masterfully practising the art of delivering truly compassionate and competent health care. He is able to connect so easily with patients due to his humor laced, friendly & caring approach. He had earlier treated my elderly mom's severe sinus infection and also helped me to overcome my LPR/GERD problems through his medicine and lifestyle tips. Recently i visited him for a peculiar & persistent Globus sensation in my throat and not only has his medicine cured me but also his calming reassurances for not troubling myself with anxieties surrounding health issues have given me a needed boost of confidence. I am suffering from an anxiety disorder and in this regard am very particular about choosing and sticking with the right doctor for every specialty i consult, given my sensibilities. When it comes to ENT related diagnosis, I am settled on the fact that Dr. Niraj Joshi is definitely the one for me and i would certainly recommend him to anyone as well .

Visited For Salivary Gland Surgery
Happy with: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for moneyWait time
I had salivary gland on my palate and got upset with my fate in my life. Doctor Joshi sir gave me second life with full confident and faith ; I think god showed him to me and he became one of my god. I didn’t even feel that I had surgery; he made it very easy. After surgery, I had some complications as my skin was fragile; doctor took conservative management and gave faith to me ; though it took few weeks, I am alright now; surgery wound cured almost 90 percent and waiting to meet the doctor after two weeks; Sir, will never forget you in my life. Thank you very much sir. Thinking how else can I show my gratitude ...
Visited For Throat pain
I used to smoke a lot. And all the symptoms of my throat infection were indicating throat cancer (as per google). Hats off to this doctor, without even me mentioning it, he said "don't look it up on google". It was just a basic infection. And his confidence gave me assurance that it actually was. Not many doctors will suggest that "tests would be a waste of money." His priority is patient's issues and comfort, not his/her money. :)
P.S.- And of course, like many other doctors, he'll be extremely calm and patient.
Visited For Sinus / Sinusitis Treatment
Hoped for better: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for moneyWait time
i came to doctor for diagnosing my condition, with my precious reports and he was unwilling to hear out my full history and symptoms management strategy. he directly suggested surgery even though i told him to suggest alternate ways...i was trying to tell him that that i had the sinus issue immediately after the root canal and he's hellbent on proving that that might not be the case and i go for surgery. when i asked for the assurance of complete healing, he said he can't confirm and he is telling me the protocoli am into fitness and optimal performance and i have successfully cured many of my medical! issues in the past when doctors couldn't so i am not obviously buying into this. 2ndly the attitude of him was arrogant. thirdly, consultation cost in practo if paid directly at clinic was 800 rs, but there i was informed it's 1000..on showing the practo confirmation of 800,they finally agreed for 800..pathetic experience..

I were struggling with strange muscles moving/pulling sensations on right half of the head and in the ear. It was distracting my focus and affecting my day to day activities to perform. Neck was stiff and can't move freely. Right half of the head, including neck feels like something crawling, pulling, cloggy, tinnitus in the right ear.
Lot satisfied with the treatment. I were diagnosed by the doctor so clearly.
I am so much glad and heartfully thankful to Niraj Sir. I got struggled before without proper treatment (before I met Niraj Sir). I affected mentally also due to this before and now felt lot improvement with doctor's advice and treatment.
