Family Physician Consultation
Sit with a doctor who has treated Faridabad families for 40+ years — and reads your reports at the same desk.
A family physician — your primary care physician, if you are reading from the US — is the one doctor who sees the whole picture: your fevers, your sugar trend, your parents' blood pressure, the cough that keeps returning every winter. Dr. Balvesh N Khanna has practised family medicine for more than forty years, which means most complaints that walk through the door are ones he has seen hundreds of times before. That pattern memory is what lets a good generalist decide quickly what is routine, what needs a test, and what needs a specialist.
The practical advantage of consulting here is that the laboratory and digital X-ray sit in the same building. If the examination raises a question — is this typhoid or just a viral fever, is the breathlessness from the chest or from anaemia — the sample or the X-ray happens the same visit, and Dr. Khanna reads the result at the same desk instead of sending you across town and asking you to come back next week.
Who should consider this
- Fever, cough, sore throat, loose motions or body ache that has not settled in two to three days
- Blood pressure or diabetes follow-up — reviewing readings, adjusting doses, planning the next tests
- Fatigue, weight change, hair fall or poor sleep where the cause is not obvious and needs sorting out
- A report from another lab or hospital that you want explained in plain language
- Elderly parents who need one steady doctor rather than a different face at every visit
- Deciding whether a symptom actually needs a specialist, and which one, before spending on referrals
How to prepare
No preparation needed — just bring your history
- Carry old prescriptions, recent reports and a list of medicines you take daily, including supplements
- If you monitor BP or sugar at home, bring the diary or the readings on your phone
- Note down when the symptom started and what makes it better or worse — small details decide diagnoses
- If a fasting test might be needed (sugar, lipids), coming in the morning without breakfast saves a second trip
What happens at the clinic
The consultation is an unhurried history and examination: what brought you in, how long it has been going on, then pulse, blood pressure, chest, abdomen — whatever the complaint calls for. If a test or X-ray will change the decision, it is done in-house the same visit; most routine reports are ready the same day. Expect the visit itself to take ten to twenty minutes, longer if reports need going through.
Your report, and what happens next
You leave with a clear plan: a prescription, a test to be done, or reassurance that nothing needs doing — which is a legitimate outcome, and an honest doctor says so. If samples were taken, most routine reports come the same day and Dr. Khanna tells you what the numbers mean and whether a follow-up visit is needed. Chronic conditions like diabetes and hypertension are usually reviewed on a fixed rhythm, typically every one to three months.
What it costs
A consultation is a flat fee; what varies is whether tests or an X-ray get added, and that depends entirely on what the examination finds — nothing is ordered by default. If tests are needed, doing them in-house the same day usually works out cheaper and faster than a separate lab visit.

Common questions
Do I need an appointment or can I just walk in?
Walk-ins are welcome — that is how a neighbourhood clinic should work. An appointment is still recommended, especially in the morning rush and during viral season, because it cuts your waiting time. Call +91 73148 55445 before leaving home.
Can I bring reports done at another lab or hospital?
Yes, and you should. Old reports show the trend, which often matters more than a single reading. Dr. Khanna will go through them with you and tell you which values need action and which are noise.
Will I be sent for tests at every visit?
No. Tests are ordered only when the answer will change the treatment. Many visits end with just a prescription or advice. When a test is needed, the lab is in the same building, so it happens the same visit rather than becoming a second errand.
Do you see children and elderly patients?
Yes — family medicine covers every age under one roof, from a child's fever to a grandparent's blood pressure. Seeing the whole family also helps, because conditions like diabetes and thyroid trouble often run in households.
