Why go to a Family Physician / GP
Your Family Doctor / GP is your first stop for all types of health problems, ranging from temporary problems like fever, cough, diarrhea, stomach ache to chronic problems like diabetes, high blood pressure, asthma, depression, anxiety, to name a few.
A GP / Family Physician is trained to see everything – from an ankle sprain to an ear- ache. In most cases they are able to treat the condition at first visit, however sometimes they would refer you for additional tests or a specialist opinion.
Because the GP looks after all your health issues, they are aware of your history, any allergies to medicine or your specific needs. This allows your GP to ensure all treatments you may need work together without any overlap. Since she is aware of your existing medicines, she also makes sure that any additional ones are safe and will provide the best relief.

Testimonial
Dr. Kucheria has been my family consultant for many years - in LA and in Delhi. She was always available on the phone and in person when my children or I fell sick. What I loved about her medical approach was that she never over prescribed. And that she was warm and calm and nurturing through every problem. She was able to deal efficiently with every problem small or big - referring us to the best specialists if needed and always giving the right advice. I recommend her highly.

"Dr Kucheria is that rare and wonderful thing -- an extraordinarily competent doctor who cares deeply for her patients. She has made a world of difference to the quality of my mother's life, over the past many years in which she has supervised her care.
My mother lights up at any mention of Dr Kucheria, let alone on her weekly visits. Kudos and thanks to Dr Kucheria."

"Each patient carries his doctor inside him, we also carry Dr. Rachna Kucheria". Kind, caring, loving, trusting, supportive, Dr. Rachna Kucheria carries each case through as though it was of a family member. Recently my partner, John was in extreme discomfort passing urine. We contacted Dr. Rachna, who hand-held us through a detailed diagnosis. She took a step-by-step approach, viewing the case from different angles and approaches. She reached out to her network of the internationally renowned specialists worldwide and presented us with the the best solutions to our concerns. John was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer and thanks to Dr. Rachna Kucheria is treated now and on his way to recovery.
It was a difficult time for us but we knew that we were in highly competent hands. She was warm and friendly, a good listener, gave us her immediate time for the needed care and most importantly a good explainer. She also gave us the confidence that we did not need to go back to the UK for the treatment, but would be in the best hands here in India.
"Thank you Dr. Rachna Kucheria for your excellent help and advice."
