She is a gifted doctor and the most empathic doctor we have come across. We have trusted her for surgeries on my parents and two other family members. There are still selfless doctors like Dr. Tapaswini and Dr. Mehta. They go to a great extent to help the patient in every possible way.

Quick and accurate diagnosis.
