Patient Experience
My jaw had been clicking and locking for months, and I'd seen a couple of dentists who just suggested a mouthguard. Dr. Gogia actually sat me down, showed me the scans, and explained how the joint was positioned. It wasn't just wear and tear; she figured out it was related to an old injury I'd forgotten about. The whole plan changed because she looked deeper. Parking at Medanta was a nightmare that day, but honestly, it was worth the hassle to finally get a real answer.
I was way overdue for a root canal—just kept putting it off because, well, who likes that idea? But the tooth finally decided for me. Dr. Gogia's team got me in quickly. The procedure itself was just... fine. No drama. She checked in a few times during, made sure I was numb, and it was over before I knew it. It sounds silly, but the most memorable part was how normal the whole thing felt. My tooth doesn't hurt anymore. That's it.
I have to say, the whole experience at Medanta was smoother than I expected. The front desk people remembered my name when I came back for a follow-up, which was a nice touch. The clinic area itself is calm and doesn't smell like a dentist's office, which is a weird but huge plus when you're anxious. Even the assistant who took my X-rays was really gentle and explained what she was doing. It felt like a team effort, not just a quick in-and-out.
Look, I'm a terrible patient. I get nervous and ask a million questions. Dr. Gogia never made me feel rushed. She actually listened to all my worries, even the silly ones about the sound of the drill. She talks you through everything as she goes—'you'll feel some pressure now,' 'we're almost done'—and it makes a world of difference. She has this very calm, direct way about her that just makes you trust her. I didn't feel like just another set of teeth in the chair.
