Patient Experience

Dr. Devki Thatte Dalvi
"My mother is Dr Meghana Patwardhan's patient for the last 5 years. She has low backache and pain radiating to thighs due to lumbar spine problem. Her problem was not severe enough to get operated but was also not getting controlled with exercises and tablets. So her orthopedic surgeon referred her to Dr Meghana. With the help of the pain relieving minimally invasive short duration procedures under simple local anesthesia done by Dr Meghana my mother is so far spared of lumbar spine surgery . Dr Meghana is excellent in her field of pain management and could guide well when the procedure was required and when it was not necessary. She was always available for post procedure follow up and further guidance."

"I was under treatment from Dr. PATWARDHAN for my pain management related to a slipped disc. Dr. Patwardhan is an astute physician who explained to me the reasons for my ailment and possible solutions for the same. Subsequently, she performed a nerve block procedure for my herniated disc, post which my pain has reduced to a great extent. I am thankful to her for all her support."
