Patient Experience
I was a total wreck before my appointment. First time seeing a doctor for this issue and I was convinced it was something awful. Dr. Mehta just had this calm way about him. He listened, explained everything in simple terms, and by the end I felt silly for being so scared. He’s the kind of doctor who makes you feel like it’s all going to be okay.
At my age, one does not relish hospital visits. The parking at Lilavati was quite full, which was a bother. However, consulting with Dr. Mehta was a very comfortable experience. He is a gentleman who shows genuine respect and takes his time. I felt heard and properly cared for, which is so important.
Saw Dr. Mehta for a persistent cough. He’s good. Got straight to the point, didn’t waste my time with unnecessary stuff. Prescription worked. Would go back if I needed to.
I’d been putting off getting this check-up for months, just dreading it. The day of, I almost cancelled. The clinic was running about 20 minutes behind, which didn’t help my nerves. When I finally went in, Dr. Mehta didn’t just look at my chart; he looked at *me*. He asked about my work stress, noticed I was fidgeting, and said, ‘Let’s start from the beginning.’ He walked me through each step of the examination, explaining what he was checking and why. It wasn’t rushed. By the time he gave me the all-clear, I wasn’t just relieved about my healthI felt like I’d finally found a doctor who actually sees the person in front of him.
