I recently saw Dr. Thakur to check a lump on my breast, and I had a very positive experience. As a male, I was a bit nervous going in, but he was incredibly kind, respectful, and made me feel at ease throughout the appointment. He took the time to really listen to my concerns, explained everything clearly, and recommended an ultrasound for further examination. I felt well cared for and informed. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a professional and compassionate doctor.
