Real Stories, Happy Smiles
Dr Meenakshi is the doctor made by GOD. Sorry if I exaggerated it but it's true. I have experienced it in my life in my two cases where my wife was in a very bad situation during whole pregnancy period. Meenakshi mam is master of her field. She treats the mother as well as fetus in right way which is required. She is very soft spoken and has a good sense of humour also. I would say these words are short to explain her qualities. I would suggest for Meenakshi mam to 10 out of 10 patients for any gynecologist/ pregnancy related issues.
Dr. Meenakshi has done the magic for us ! Good doctor with a great hand..I was under her throughout from the start and single handedly she looked after our case. Even though our first time failed, we couldn’t help but come back to her for the 2nd cycle as well. She’s a wonderful human being who instils the positivity in her patient. From every other clinic we d come home depressed and they always sent us back with hope. Not just her but the entire team, from the nurse to the receptionist, everyone would greet with a smile and wish u well, sending good vibes, just what an IVF patient exactly needs ! Thank You for giving us our MIRACLE 😊
Before meeting to Dr. Meenakshi were depressed and afraid of the IVF procedure. But doctor genuine response made us very comfortable. She is always reachable. Her support staff specially soumya and shreshta have been very sweet and supportive to me and my wife.nursing staff is also very caring.
Dr. Meenakshi Dua is so friendly person. I always feel like I get plenty of time to explain my issues without feeling rushed. And of course she does a good job and so professional that makes me feel very comfortable. And easy to reach on her mobile phone if anything urgent. I feel very cared for every visit. I believe, best advice and treatment during every visit and for every issue. She truly cares about me. I am truly grateful.
Dr. Meenakshi Dua is a great doctor and an amazing human being. She has a "Never say Never" attitude by which she has always comforted us. We really appreciate her commitment. She has always treated us with tender loving care. Caring, smiling and laughing is good atmosphere for patients which Dr. Meenakshi has always maintained with us.
