Lakshaami Shetty2025-04-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dear Doctor, Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your care and kindness during such a scary time. When the slab suddenly fell on us while we were sleeping on the floor at midnight, I was terrified. But your calm words, gentle approach, and encouragement made me feel safe and hopeful. You not only treated my injuries—you healed my fear too. I will always recommend you, not just for your skill, but for the compassion you show.

Dr. Bharat Saxena is exceptionally passionate about his work, approaching it with the dedication of someone who truly worships his profession. Meeting him changed my perspective on how compassionate and humble a doctor can be, especially in a country like India, where human life often isn’t valued as it should be. In these times, Dr. Saxena stands out, treating his patients with the utmost respect, care, and compassion. I am profoundly grateful to Dr. Saxena for the way he treated my father during his mouth cancer surgery. He assured us that my father’s face would look flawless after the procedure, and true to his word, no one can tell that he underwent surgery. My entire family is indebted to his care and professionalism. We wish him all the best in his future endeavors and pray that his passion for his work continues to shine.
