Professional biography

Dr. Ankit Khandelwal completed his MBBS at King George's Medical College (KGMC), Lucknow, followed by an MD, a Post Graduate Diploma in Family Medicine (PGDFM) from Christian Medical College, Vellore, and CCEBDM certification in evidence-based diabetes management. He spent his early consultant years in busy multispecialty hospital practice, managing everything from severe infections and uncontrolled diabetes to complex elderly patients on many medicines at once.

That experience shaped the way the clinic runs today. Consultations are longer than average, reports are explained line by line, and every medicine on your list is reviewed for whether it is still doing something useful. Where a specialist opinion is genuinely required — cardiology, nephrology, neurology — a timely referral is arranged and the findings are brought back into a single plan.

Alongside clinical work, he has taught junior residents at the bedside, led an antibiotic stewardship initiative in his department, and continues to update his practice against national and international guidance. He believes patients follow treatment they understand, so each visit ends with a written plan: what you are taking, why, what to watch for, and when to return.

Medical philosophy

How care is practised at this clinic

Six principles that decide what is tested, what is prescribed and how much time your consultation takes.

“A prescription is the easiest part of a consultation. The difficult part — and the part that actually helps — is understanding the person in front of you.”

Dr. Ankit Khandelwal

  • Listen first, prescribe later

    Most diagnoses come from a careful history. The consultation begins with your story, not a prescription pad.

  • Test only what changes management

    Investigations are chosen because their result will alter treatment — not to fill a package or reassure by volume.

  • Fewer, better medicines

    Every medicine on your list is reviewed for whether it still earns its place. De-prescribing is as important as prescribing.

  • Explain in plain language

    Patients follow treatment they understand, so each report is explained line by line in English or Hindi.

  • Own the follow-up

    Care does not end at the door. A written plan states what to watch for, when to return and when to call sooner.

  • Refer without ego

    When a cardiologist, nephrologist or neurologist is genuinely needed, the referral is timely and findings return to one plan.
