I would give this Dr minus rating if there was an option to give. Once upon a time, his treatment was really nice. But now he has turned into a money minded greedy person.

I took my father for a joint pain. He wrote all unnecessary tests and he asked us to do it in NextGen. I was little surprised, why a doctor will ask to do in a specific lab. But then I was asked to give blood sample for few other tests which were again unnecessary. When we gave the blood sample, we got to know, the people collecing bloods are from NextGen. This Dr has made an arrangement with NextGen lab to earn commissions. Anyway we did all necessary tests for around 10k. After that he asked around 10 different medicines along with physiotherapy and an injection costing around 20k. We didn't buy anything from there and we wanted a second opinion. We went to Dr Jyoti(OARC), he asked me all these test don't tell anything about the disease. Just do a MRI and show me the report. When I asked is there any specific lab, that you would like to recommend. He said, you can do where ever you want to do. Then we did MRI and he said the spinal cord is getting pressed between lower disc (L1 and L3), that's why the pain is felt on the right knee. Since my father is 72, he suggested us, not to go for any surgery and temporary relief can be felt with physiotherapy. He wrote few calcium tablets and said it's your choice if you want to take or not.

Dr RK was such a greedy person, he made us spent 10k, but he was unable to answer what was the issue.

With this elaborated review, I wouldn't recommend anyone to go to this person.

Money Minded. Doing business only. Faltu Diagnosis. Dr ask for unnecessary tests which cost 3 times more than normal market rates. Even after showing detail x-ray reports he was reluctant to answer any question and said after outcome of all the other costly test reports that he prescribed he'll anser to my questions.

I had given my ratings two years back. I was extremely disappointed with the doctor. Misdiagnosis and negligence is the least one can or should take.

Two years later, here's an update. It is not just misdiagnosis now, but unprofessionalism. Misbehaviour with a senior citizen is intolerable. And, being money minded is the worst thing you can expect.

A huge disappointment.
I would suggest people who want to visit the doctor/clinic is to kindly not waste their money, time and health.
