Three useful sources for 2026: (1) DoctorReviews.in — profiles marked ✓ NMC Verified are cross-checked against the NMC public register; submitted reviews are human-moderated; optional ✓ Verified Visit badge via prescription/bill upload. (2) NMC register at nmc.org.in — confirms registration, qualification, council, and disciplinary history (but no patient reviews). (3) Google reviews — high volume but not licence-verified. Read 3-5 specific reviews, not just the average rating.
Three core differences: (1) NMC cross-check on profiles marked ✓ NMC Verified. (2) ✓ Verified Visit badge — patients optionally upload prescription or bill as proof of consultation; the proof is never public and is deleted after moderation. (3) Human moderation before publishing. See our full side-by-side comparison.
Five red flags: (1) Only 5-stars, no 3- or 4-star reviews — real patient experience is bell-shaped. (2) Generic praise with no specific incidents, dates, or hospital names. (3) Identical phrasing across multiple "patients" (copy-paste from paid services). (4) Reviews posted in batches within days of each other. (5) Reviewer accounts with no other review history. A brand-new doctor with 50+ 5-star reviews and zero negatives is statistically implausible. Full guide: spotting fake reviews.
Cover six things: (1) Diagnosis accuracy — was it correct? (2) Treatment outcome — did it work? (3) Doctor behaviour — patient and clear, or dismissive? (4) Wait time — actual vs scheduled. (5) Staff and cleanliness. (6) Fee transparency — were charges as published? Avoid vague praise ("great doctor"), other patients' identifiable details, and your full medical history. Be specific — name the condition, the procedure, the fee. Write a review →
Specifics beat superlatives. A good review names: (a) the condition or symptom you went in with, (b) whether the diagnosis was accurate, (c) the treatment plan and outcome, (d) the wait time and staff handling, (e) the fee and whether it matched the published list, (f) whether you would recommend and why. Two to four sentences with one specific incident beats a long paragraph of generic praise. Full guide →
Two minutes on nmc.org.in: search by name or registration number. The result shows registration number, council, qualifications, year of registration, and any disciplinary actions. On DoctorReviews.in, the green ✓ NMC Verified badge means we've already done this check. The NMC register is the only authoritative source — every other review platform can be manipulated. Full walkthrough: NMC verification guide.
Specialist fees vary by city and doctor seniority. In metros: many private consultations fall around ₹500–₹3,000, while senior specialists at premium hospitals may charge more. Government hospital OPD fees are usually much lower. DoctorReviews displays fee information where publicly checked; always confirm the current fee with the clinic or hospital before visiting.
Submitted reviews are human-moderated before publishing. Reviewers may additionally upload a prescription or consultation bill to earn a green ✓ Verified Visit badge — proof that they actually saw the doctor. The proof file is never shown publicly and is deleted after moderation. Doctor profiles marked ✓ NMC Verified are cross-checked against the NMC public register. Suspicious or paid review patterns are rejected.

Your health decisions deserve
the best information.
Find NMC-checked doctor profiles, compare hospitals, and write patient reviews — completely free.
Choosing the right doctor is one of the most important healthcare decisions you will make. In India, with over 13 lakh registered doctors and thousands of hospitals, finding an experienced specialist in your city can be overwhelming. DoctorReviews helps you compare doctor profiles, patient reviews, and NMC-check signals where available — making healthcare decisions more transparent.
India has over 10,000 cardiologists, but quality varies significantly. When searching for the best cardiologist in Delhi, Mumbai, or Bangalore, look for: NMC registration, FACC or DM Cardiology qualification, hospital affiliation with a cath lab, minimum 10 years post-specialisation experience, and at least 4.5 rating on DoctorReviews with 50+ reviews. Top cardiac hospitals include AIIMS, Apollo, Medanta, Fortis Escorts, and Narayana Health. Consultation fees for cardiologists in India range from ₹500 (government) to ₹3,000 (senior specialist at private hospital).
For skin problems — acne, psoriasis, hair loss, pigmentation, or cosmetic procedures — always verify that the doctor is a qualified Dermatologist (MD Dermatology or DVD) and not just a general physician offering skin treatments. In metro cities like Mumbai, Delhi, and Bangalore, specialist dermatologists charge ₹800–₹2,500 per consultation. For cosmetic procedures (laser, PRP, Botox), always request before/after photos and verify the clinic is equipped with FDA-approved devices. Read DoctorReviews reviews focusing on treatment outcome, not just bedside manner.
India is one of the world's most affordable destinations for IVF and fertility treatment, with success rates of 40–60% per cycle at top centres. When choosing a gynaecologist for IVF, check: DM/DNB Reproductive Medicine qualification, clinic's published success rates (not just "success" claims), egg quality and embryo grading protocols, and patient reviews specifically mentioning IVF outcomes. Top IVF centres in India: Nova IVF, Indira IVF, Manipal Fertility, and hospital-based fertility units at Apollo and Fortis. DoctorReviews's gynaecologist reviews include IVF-specific ratings.
Knee replacement surgery in India costs ₹1.5–₹4.5 lakhs at private hospitals versus ₹30,000–₹60,000 at government hospitals — a massive difference. When choosing an orthopaedic surgeon for joint replacement, verify: MCh or DNB Orthopaedics, fellowship in joint replacement, minimum 500 joint replacement surgeries performed, hospital with dedicated orthopaedic physiotherapy, and implant brand used (Zimmer Biomet, Stryker, and DePuy are internationally certified). Patient reviews on DoctorReviews frequently mention post-surgery recovery experience and physiotherapy quality.
India has fewer than 9,000 psychiatrists for 1.4 billion people — making mental healthcare access a critical challenge. When seeking help for depression, anxiety, OCD, ADHD, or bipolar disorder, verify: MD Psychiatry qualification for prescribing medication (psychologists cannot prescribe in India), registration with the Rehabilitation Council of India (RCI) for psychologists, experience with your specific condition, and whether they offer online consultations (many psychiatrists now offer telepsychiatry). DoctorReviews is one of the few platforms with verified reviews for psychiatrists and mental health professionals across India.
NABH (National Accreditation Board for Hospitals) is India's highest hospital quality standard, benchmarked against international ISQUA standards. NABH-accredited hospitals must maintain strict protocols for infection control, patient safety, medication management, and staff training. JCI (Joint Commission International) accreditation is the global gold standard — currently held by about 30 hospitals in India. When choosing a hospital for surgery, always prefer NABH-accredited facilities. All hospitals listed on DoctorReviews display their accreditation status clearly.
Consultation fees vary significantly by city, doctor seniority, hospital, and appointment type. Publicly listed fees can become outdated quickly, so DoctorReviews shows fee information only where available and patients should always confirm the current fee before visiting.
A helpful doctor review mentions: (1) Diagnosis accuracy — did the doctor correctly identify your condition?; (2) Treatment outcome — did the prescribed treatment work?; (3) Doctor behaviour — was the doctor patient, did they explain clearly?; (4) Wait time — actual wait time vs. appointment time; (5) Staff behaviour — was the clinic/hospital staff helpful?; (6) Fee transparency — were charges explained upfront? Reviews that include these details help other patients make genuinely informed decisions. Avoid vague reviews like "very good doctor" — specific experiences are more valuable.
