Mrs Namrata
I visited Dr Archana Belvi with sonography report of multiple fibroids. Heavy bleeding during periods and weakness were my main complaints. was very much worried after seeing my report. Dr Archana Belvi mam studied my case in depth and counseled me about the need of surgery for my fibroids. Her expert opinion was to remove my uterus and not to remove only fibroids as they were multiple in numbers as well as according to my age.{48 yrs} I asked her multiple queries and she answered it ...She assured me that I will have better standard of living after my operation as heavy periods and weakness were disturbing my day today work. Dr Archana Belvi mam And Dr Neelkanth Belvi sir did my surgery and now after 2 months of surgery, I am fine and leaving better life than earlier. Thank you, mam and sir.
Mr. Sunil Gholap
Dr Archana Belvi is incredible doctor as well as a person. My mother had multiple polyps in uterus. When we consulted her we were already scared due to the wrong communication by another doctor. She resolved all our doubts, assured us and helped us. She explained everything to us in very clear manner and was so patient while listening all our questions and doubts. No matter what doubt and questions you have she will always explain you the root cause. My mother had gone under surgery, under Dr. Archana madam. Her approach is very positive and focused. I am happily giving five stars to her and recommending her to gynecological treatment. All of the staff was great mainly Dr Yogesh kaje , Dr deepa they were helpful, patient and approachable. Thank you.
