TESTIMONIALS

The Doctor was very polite and humble. She gave a very detailed explanation about our problem.  She analysed the earlier test reports in detail, and did not ask us to get any additional tests. Overall satisfied with the doctor for our very first visit

I went for my father's treatment as he has kidney problem. His creatinine, potassium was very high and his vitamin D, platelet, haemoglobin was very less. After consulting Dr Shakuntala he has recovered a lot in just a month's time. All his platelet, haemoglobin and vitamin level increased and his creatinine and potassium is also normal now. Would recommend the doctor.

Dr Shakuntala Mam is very friendly and explained all the problems and doubts. She is very professional and answers even small small questions. My brother is survived because of Mam and other Urology doctors in NU hospital. Thank you all for your treatment.

She explains very clearly, very patiently answers and clears all our doubts and she is also happy to repeat again and again. We are glad to have consulted her. I have even troubled her on weekends by messaging her and she has kindly replied. She really cares for her patients. Thank you, Doctor.

Dr.Modi was a very friendly doctor. I could talk about my problems to her very openly. I wanted the diagnosis to be done quickly as I had to travel back to West Bengal, I told her about it and she did it in that day itself. If you want to visit a nephrologist you should visit Dr Modi.
