Dr. Shakuntla Kumar

This is my second pregnancy with Dr. Shakuntala. While she is a great doctor and I am highly satisfied with her, the hospital services are very dissatisfying. It is a task to get an appointment and even though you get one, the waiting time to meet the doctor is endless. Their ultrasound technician is not up to date and I definitely had a harrowing experience there. Pregnant women shouldn't be made to wait too long. The hospital system could be a little more organised and the employees could be quicker at replying and setting up appointments. I tried to make peace with it but writing this review was my last resort. I had a fairly easier experience during my first pregnancy with them, but this time, it is really a challenge.

She had been boon for my family for last 20 years.

All good except a place for a better sitting arrangement will be nice, because we have to stand for long waiting. She is very much wanted by many.

I had met 4 doctors before finally meeting Dr. Shakuntla Kumar. The difference is when I visited other doctors they talked sweetly, gave a high level description of the whole issue and recommended umpteen tests from the diagnostic center of their choice and finally the money they will charge for the process with no upper ceiling to the amount and create a sense of urgency, BUT when I met Dr. Shakuntla she did not ask for any report/test, instead did the first hand diagnosis herself, explained the issue patiently in detail and in a way that sounded compassionate for ignorant people (like us) explained why what is suggesting is the best option. We were convinced without an ounce of doubt. Oh yes, fees! She didn't say a word about it. Fees was reasonable for the process but care and professionalism was what convinced us. She doesn't see a patient as ATM but as a human being and gives every person the due respect and care they deserve. She is a perfect person for the nature of her work. Respect for her!
