My mother has this problem of Asthma from Childhood.
She was admitted in the hospital thrice before visiting Dr. Mehul.
Every time, she was diagnosed for infection but none of the doctors actually were able to trace why does she keep falling sick with the same problem.
Dr. Mehul explained us the cause and treatment in details. She was hospitalized under his supervision and is satisfied to the fullest with his approach towards treating the disease.
She is really happy with the treatment and this has added to a prodigious amount of confidence in her. In fact she thinks he has given her a new life. Now she understands her problems much better than before. And she has someone to trust and look up to.
Thank you so much !
Manish.

I chose the 4:30pm slot which guaranteed me minimal wait time. My family doctor recommended me for a second opinion for chest specialist. Visit to this doctor was totally worth as he was able to understand the situation within a jiffy after peeking into family doctors prescriptions. He analyzed my Issues while discussing with me and examining me with stethoscope. He concluded with full confidence what was wrong with me. Precautions, remedies and all. This meeting was not more than 3 minutes and I am out of his cabin. Totally freaking Professional he is.

My father had been suffering from continuous cough and spent sleepless nights due to the chronic cough for around a months time.
After meeting Dr. Thakkar and once his medicines were on, my father experienced great relief in less than 5 days.
I felt comfortable explaining the doctor about my father's health issues. The doctor was not in a hurry at all. He listened to us carefully, asked multiple questions to understand the health issue. In-fact when i called him during the treatment, he was very helpful and co-operative. His medicines have undoubtedly brought immense relief to my father from the continuous cough.
