Patient Testimonials *

Shingles
"Dr Meenakshi recently treated me for a shingles outbreak on my face. I sent her an email about my symptoms and she called me an hour later.  We had a video call during which she looked at my rash and asked me a few questions and told me to come and pick up the medicine in an hour. She was very confident that it can be cured quickly.  I was in a lot of pain at that point and I took a dose of the medicine right away.  In a few hours, I started to feel better. That night, I took a second dose and was able to sleep well. Next morning when I woke up, the severe burning and stinging pain had almost gone. It took about two weeks for the eruptions to completely heal. I am no longer in pain and have recovered fully.  Dr Meenakshi was very supportive and patient during the entire process. We had weekly calls to monitor the progress and she was always there to answer any of my questions. I am very thankful for her, for healing and helping me during these trying times."

Autism Spectrum
"We approached Dr Meenakshi Bhargava a few months back when our 11 year son had a lot of focus/ behavior issues in the classroom and outside. He is on the autism spectrum. We had trying several biomedical /herbal interventions for his condition but still we were missing something. She patiently listened to his case and took his history. We have followed her treatment plan and we have seen a ray of hope after a couple of months. My son is much better with his focus and behavior in class. We saw major gains in his academic performance in these four months after getting started. Dr Meenakshi has always given us a holistic advice regarding my son's problems. Her warm personality and demeanor was able to pacify our son as well as the parents.  We are truly blessed to have met her and get her expert advice. Thank you Dr Meenakshi for all that you have done for our family" *

Asthma
"My daughter, was diagnosed with asthma about 2 yrs ago. The regular physician started her on Singulair everyday along with Albuterol and later they added Budesonide to control asthma symptoms but nothing her and it progressively became worse. Later, they added Loratadine to control the allergy symptoms.  Nothing was helping and we as parents did not want her to keep taking these medications as they had lot of side effects besides they were not helping at all. We started looking for other options and somebody suggested homeopathy. We checked online and luckily found Dr. Meenakshi. After reading the reviews we decided to see her. We have been very happy with the progress and currently she is not taking any medication for asthma or allergy. Even during cold and viral episodes she is doing much better and they resolves faster. We are thankful to the Almighty that we found her on time and our daughter is happy and healthy. I would recommend everybody to see Dr. Meenakshi if they are looking for alternative medicine and want to avoid the side effects of allopathy treatment." *

Thyroid Issues
"I would like to thank Dr Meenakshi for her wonderful services. I approached her six months back when I was worried with thyroid issues. She promptly gave me an appointment and listened patiently to my history and symptoms. After having followed her treatment plan and advice, I am feeling wonderful again and have regained my energy back. She has an amazing knack of being able to see the big picture about the patient's problem and giving a holistic opinion. I am fortunate that I was able to consult her" *

Interstititial Systitis, IBS, Acne 
"For over a year I suffered from interstitial cystitis, IBS, and acne.  I sought treatment from multiple sources, such as a urologist, a gynecologist, a dermatologist, a general practitioner, and a naturopath.  I was either dismissed with no definitive treatment, or put on an extreme diet that actually made me worse.  In a desperate search for relief, I found Dr. Bhargava in August of 2016.  She made me feel hopeful and calmed my fear that my suffering would never end.  She made me feel that her practice isn't generic; it is designed to treat my body and my specific problems.  In only four months, my cystitis symptoms are 99% gone, I haven't had an episode of IBS for over two months, and my acne is improving.  I am so grateful that I found Dr. Bhargava.   She is warm, caring, willing to listen to my concerns and patiently explain her treatments. I have a new outlook on the future.  I always leave her office feeling happy and optimistic." *

Asthma (Child) 
"My daughter had started wheezing when she started her first daycare around 15 months age. Since then she had been on albuetrol almost every day and day by day more medicines and steroids were added to her list for allergies and asthma. Even after taking so many medications, she had so many severe asthma attacks and many ER visits and missing school days.  She never had a luck to go outdoors during the recess time. My daughter had turned 7 years old and We had been patiently waiting to hope that she would outgrow this situation sooner, but, it never happened until we meet Dr.Meenakshi.

Dr.Meenakshi had diagnosed my daughters situation carefully and she gave me confidence that my daughter would outgrow this situation sooner. The best part that gave piece of mind was that she returns phone calls immediately and advise time to time based on the symptoms and changes. Within 3 to 4 weeks after we started homepath, we slowly weaned her off of albuetrol and preventive steroids and that was big relief for us.

My daughter survived through winters and spring without any issues and we are confident that this is her life time change.  Her regular  colds are also very less. Also, Time to time she suggests life style changes and food changes that also helped her to become strong physically and mentally. As she is in good health now, she is really doing good academically and extra circular activities and she became very happy and confident child. This change wouldnt have happened without Dr.Meenakshi's treatment." *

Hemorrhoids and Fissures
"​Dr. Meenakshi Bhargava, is a best name in Homeopath Medicine. I was suffering from severe Fissure problem after first birth of baby 4.5 Yrs. back.  Due to this problem I had very hard time to pass stools along with severe pain, swelling and bleeding in rectum area. I consulted and took all types of medicines (Allopath, Ayurveda and Homeopath), but nothing did help me to diagnose properly and I was more dependent on magnesium composed laxatives. Since my health conditions getting worst, I was in more pain, depressed, sad and traumatized and it was affecting my family and social life.

Finally I met Dr. Meenakshi 4 months back in Dec 2015 through internet search and honestly speaking my best Homeopath doctor search end at this name only.  Dr. Meenakshi did collect all of my medical and past history and started medicine for a month. This is a turning moment in my life, Dr. Meenakshi’s medicines started showing results from the first week itself and I got rid of harmful laxatives which I was taking since 4.5 yrs. Now it’s close to 4 months, my health is back to normal, I got my confidence back and more than that I have more smile than ever before.

I am thankful and grateful to Dr. Meenakshi for her magical homeopath treatment. Now I am carrying a baby and she started caring of both me and my baby.  After having these good results, my husband booked first appointment for his slip-disk herniation. Will keep posting our experiences. Thank you so much Dr. Meenakshi for giving back our beautiful and normal life." *

Autism and ADHD
"We started our journey with Meenakshi Bhargava and her Homeopathic remedy ~6 months back. It has been a rewarding experience for us so far!
Our child has been diagnosed with mild Autism and ADHD. Every year i keep a track of my child's progress, add new programs to sustain and this year(2016) we added Homeopathy in the list.  The very first dose was a transparent liquid that made my child so relaxed , calm, focused & happy.
The other notable symptoms are:
*Growth spurts in the " Speech & Language " domain.
*Improved fine motor skills
* Attending  to tasks
* Above all building friendship and enjoying the same.
* Confidence.
The development has been great from month to month. I am so happy to see my child happy and making gains in all the domains. His teachers and staff who work with my child are quiet surprised to see at the gains he made before 6 months back.

Homeopathy is relatively less expensive with no side effects. I do like the Allopathic plans, strategies. For his ADHD he takes a low dose of stimulant with Homeopathic remedy supplementation the stimulant dosage has been  tapered already.  Homeopathy for sure needs an experienced Dr. to give the remedy based on interviews and observation.  Dear Parents & Caregivers,please  feel free to make a decision of yours. Sincerely!" *

Pre-Menopause
"I am eternally grateful to Dr Bhargava for solving my pre-menopause issues. 
My period started on January 21 but did not stop. It was 5 weeks before I managed to get an appointment with a renowned gynecologist in the Bay Area. After putting me through a battery of tests, she said  the only solution was to get hormone replacement therapy. I was very unhappy about this and decided to try alternate methods of treatment. I approached  Dr Bhargava for homeopathic treatment and she assured me that there was no need to start hormone therapy. As soon as she started treating me, the bleeding slowed down and then stopped within 10 days. By this time I had been bleeding for 3 months !  Since then, my period has resumed its normal monthly cycle. She also solved other minor health issues at the same time.

Dr Bhargava has a very calm and reassuring  personality and truly cares for her patients. Within the first few days, she called me a few times to check on me just to make sure the treatment was working. My only regret is that I did not come to Dr Bhargava right away. " *

Allergy & Eczema (Child), Gastric Reflux (Infant)
"We have been Dr Bhargava's patients since 2011 and feel very fortunate to have been referred to her. She has been treating our children from when they were 2 year old and 3 months old respectively. Our older daughter had non traditional reaction to pollen with bleeding blisters on her neck. Dr Bharagava helped us treat it and also gave us support around the clock. She had terrible eczema flare ups and these were also addressed by Dr Bhargava. Her toddler years were very challenging and having Dr Bhargava treat her issues from inside out really helped her and us. Our younger daughter had severe reflux at birth to the extent that we could not put her down for 3 and half months. Once we started her treatment with Dr Bhargava, within a week she was able to sleep on her back. 

We also depend on Dr Bhargava for colds, coughs and fevers, especially like in the case of our younger daughter - who gets respiratory infections some times for several days. The immune system for both our kids have improved dramatically under Dr Bhargava's care. We also follow her advice on diet. Dr Bhargava has also been able to address my husband's pollen allergy and converted him into a firm believer! He used to depend heavily on OTC antihistamines throughout the pollen season and now he does not need them!  Dealing with issues that do not stem from any kind of family histories, Dr Bhargava has been nothing short of a blessing." *

Uterine Fibroids
"I have known Dr. Bhargava since 2008/2009. She has helped our son with his cold, allergy and eczema issues when he was younger. Recently, I was diagnosed with uterine fibroids and my gynecologist was quick to recommend hysterectomy. I asked Dr. Bhargava if there was any alternative medicine and she was able to help me. I no longer have excessive bleeding or pain and Dr Bhargava was able to alleviate the symptoms over a few months. She is always a pleasure to work with and has some wonderful home remedies/ tips to offer. I am very thankful and appreciate Dr. Bhargava’s advice." *

Menopause at early age
"After some serious menopausal symptoms that were upsetting me for 9 months, I was highly recommended to visit Dr. Bhargava for a consultation. Within a few minutes of sitting with this kind warm attentive Doctor; I was able to feel very comforted when I expressed my frustrations with Menopause at such an early age and to top it off, having two toddlers to raise during this period of my life.  Dr. Bhargava was able to immediately sense my worries, frustrations and sadness rather quickly once she asked specific questions about my life past and present. In that hour of discussions, I felt safe and warm with her. She listened to everything I had to say and was able to give clear suggestions (rather simple ones) about how to balance my menopausal state of mind while raising two babies. With understanding many aspects of who I am as a person, she was able to quickly find simple solutions to help me better balance my menopausal symptoms with some "happy" pills and also guide me to different ways of managing my daily routines with my kids and find a peace and calm with myself. 

I really look forward to every appointment I have with Dr. Bhargava and will continue to see her for any symptoms good or bad and get 'reboots' from her. I have already recommended her to a friend and she has found positive results in her issues." *

Alopecia (Hair Loss) & IBS
"I have been seeing Dr Bhargava since 2005 and felt very lucky to find such a great doctor. I was worried when i first visited with Alopecia and after studying my health condition, Dr Bhargava treated me for few months and to my surprise, all the hair loss issues on head went away. Dr Bhargava also recommended lot of diet tips and healthy food habits which helped me a lot. I have seen Dr Bhargava for IBS that has been bothering me for years and I'll say i'm very happy with treatment and I would highly recommend my friends or anyone to see Dr Bharagava for treatment. And, last but not least, Dr Bhargava is very good at understanding the problem and explaining things that may have been contributing and action items to fix it. We are truly fortunate to find Dr Bhargava." *

Eczema (child), Fibroids (adult)
"Both myself and my daughter are patients of Dr Meenakshi.  My daughter had severe eczema from around the age of one, it is heartbreaking to see your baby suffer from intense burning and weeping of the skin knowing nothing your doctor prescribes is working.  My husband is firm believer of homeopathy, and a good friend of his recommended Dr Meenakshi.  Thank God for his friend! She is now nearly eczema free!

​Also I have been suffering from fibroids the last couple of years or so.  The pain was excruciating and the feeling of depression, self worthlessness, when you are blessed to have your children healthy around you and not wanting to be in the same room as them is the worst feeling in the world.  My ob-gyn recommended hysterectomy.  As I was in such unbearable pain I nearly agreed until until I read about the side affects some women have had with this surgery.  Was surprised when Dr Meenakshi said she can help me. Happy to say I have no more pain, spending more time with the family again.  We are still working on the fibroids, but at least I have my life back somewhat.  Thank you Dr Meenakshi!" *

Chronic Fatigue & Skin Rashes
"I decided to try something different to help me with some of the health problems my own doctor could not help me with. My decision fell on homeopathy after doing some research. I was lucky to find Dr. Bhargava in an online search for the right homeopath. 

My visits with Dr. Bhargava have been very pleasant and helpful. I came to her with some problems I've had for longer periods of time and some for shorter period of time. My biggest problem was skin rashes that seemed to get worse and worse with time. No prescription creams from my usual Doctor had helped. Occasionally it would get better but it would always come back worse than the previous time. My other concern was my lack of energy that affected me in different parts of life. After getting my energy back I embarced on a journey of healthy eating and regular exercise. I was already very fit (due to my former career as a professional soccer player) but still managed to lose the unwanted weight of 15lbs in 8 weeks. Before I didn't have the energy to even work out. 

Dr. Bhargava had warned me things would potentially get worse before it got better with the medication she gave me. She was right and things got worse for the first few weeks. But after that things got progressively better in just a few weeks. Within a month I had my energy back and the skin rashes had improved significantly. I met with Dr. Bhargava every 3-4 weeks for a few months. After a month and a half my skin rashes were also completely gone. Now, almost four months later, skin rashes have stayed away and I am still having tons of energy. 

I would recommend Dr. Bhargava to anyone who have unsolved health issues. Sometimes it can be challenging to try something new and different to our typical western medicine. But if you are looking for long lasting results and a very compassionate doctor then I would strongly recommend anyone to see Dr. Bhargava." *

​Eczema and Ulcerative Colitis 
"Our now 9 year old daughter developed eczema at a very early age. And at age 4 she suffered through bouts of colitis which last year was given a clinical diagnosis of ulcerative colitis. We decided not to treat her condition with maintenance drugs and western medicines yet opted to change her lifestyle through homeopathy about 12 months ago. Our daughter suffered through an ulcerative colitis flare up early on in our homeopathy treatment. In previous flare ups we treated her with harsh steroids but this time her condition dissipated within a couple weeks after Dr. Bhargava made some adjustments. Since that episode she has not experienced symptoms of the disease. Her eczema has slowly diminished as well. Dr. Bhargava was spot on with how our daughter's body would react to the homeopathy changes and provided us the right treatment to allow her body to shake it all out. We're grateful to have been referred to her practice and look forward to continued healthy living." *

Migraines
"I have been seeing Dr. Bhargava for the past several months, primarily for frequent migraine headaches, and I want to thank you for dramatically reducing the number of migraines I get monthly.  I have seen so many specialists and have tried many alternative methods, none of which have been successful up till my visits to her.  I am most grateful!" *

Acne and IBS
"For years, I have struggled with cystic acne.  Once over-the-counter products stopped working, I was told Accutane was my only option.  It worked for about 8 months, then failed.  I tried birth control after that... worked, but gave me blood clots (get a blood test before taking birth control!!!).  So, once again I got prescribed Accutane.  I have taken Accutane 3 times and I really feel it has troubled my digestive system.  So, for at least 3 years, I have been suffering from acne and Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). Homeopathy was the only answer (I wish I knew more about it before all this). Doctor Meenakshi has helped a great deal.  I am still in the process of healing, but my acne hasn't showed up at all, my face is smoother, and the IBS isn't as harmful as it has been in the past years. I really enjoy her help.  She always explains things really well to me, is extremely helpful with tips and tricks you can do at home, and has consistently known what is right for my body.  Thank you, Doctor Meenakshi!" *

Anxiety​
"I have been Dr Bhargava's patient for 9 years now and must say that with her help I have managed to turn my life around. I was suffering from severe anxiety, which held me back in many ways and also prevented me from getting pregnant. With her help not only was I was able to deal with my anxiety, but I have have two healthy strong kids. She took extra care during my pregnancy to make sure that I and my baby stayed healthy. I am really thankful to her and  hope to continue to get help from Dr Bhargava for any future health problems for me or my children." *

Acne, Eczema, Allergies
"I was suffering for more than 10 years from whole body itching, sneezing and acne and past few years had rashes on my neck and eyelids. I tried cortisone for rashes and zyrtec for sneezing and itching and it would go and come back. I wanted a more natural and permanent solution for these. I read about homeopathy and wanted to give it a try. I found Dr Meenakshi Bhargava who practiced very close to my home and have been seeing her for over two years now. First the rashes on my eyelids and neck disappeared and my body itching has gone completely. For more than a year I have no allergies, rashes or sneezing. My acne has reduced significantly. For the first time my face is clear since childhood. She also gives me tips on how I can improve my lifestyle by making small changes that will take care of some bad habits and chronic problems." *

Vitiligo
"My daughter was diagnosed with Vitiligo when she was 7 years old. She had white spots on her face and we were told that there is no cure for her disease. Many Allopathy specialists asked us to apply an ointment that would temporarily change the color of her skin but the Ointment thinned her skin and made things worse. We tried Naturopathy treatment also but it did not help either. Slowly people started noticing and were asking about the spots and showed pity on us. As she grew older, her classmates started asking her about her skin condition and she felt very uncomfortable. She was not able to go and play outside in the sun anymore as it made her skin worse. With in a  couple of years, my daughter's face had big patches of white spots and we felt that it is not treatable anymore. During this period of utter disappointment that we heard about about Dr Meenakshi Bhargava and decided to meet her. 

Dr Meenakshi talked to us in great detail regarding our daughter's health and started the treatment. The pills were tiny and so our daughter took medicine regularly as she did not have to swallow huge pills. Within a couple of months we noticed that the growth of her white spots got arrested and as days rolled by we started to see her regular skin color come back. Dr. Meenakshi is very sweet it made our daughter feel comfortable talking to her in detail during each visit. Our hope came back as our daughter showed great improvement within a few months. Our daughter is almost 12 now and her skin conditioned is almost restored to normalcy now. Dr Meenakshi's knowledge in homeopathy and applying it to patient cure is commendable. We don't have words to thank Dr Meenakshi enough." *

Allergy, Digestive disorders, Hormonal Imbalance
"I was referred to Dr Bhargava by a good friend who highly recommended her. I instantly felt at home after my 1st conversation itself with Dr Bhargava. She has a really gentle, attentive and kind demeanor. She also has an interesting way of connecting our physical health with our emotional psychological health. Her medicines gave me relief for several issues for instance with my shellfish allergy reactions, my UTI pain and my long standing struggle with hormonal imbalance and poor digestion. She has very good insight into chronic conditions and can help with many complicated issues. I would highly recommend Dr Bhargava for anyone who wants to improve their health and have a balanced well being." *

Chronic Conditions - Fibroids & Cysts, Shingles, Menopause, Anxiety
"Dr. Meenakshi is far more than a doctor - she is part of my support system! She is the perfect blend of friendly warmth and deep professionalism.  I initially visited her for repeated breast fibroids and cysts that involved two surgeries.  Her treatment has helped tremendously in the prevention of further fibroids and cysts. 

She has helped me greatly in dealing with stress and panic attacks with a very multi-faceted approach.  She has spent so much time patiently getting to the root of the problem, then advising me and providing the best possible treatment. Her holistic approach to treatment is exactly what is required and includes food and exercise advice, in addition to the right medicines with no side-effects.
​ 
There is something so secure about knowing your doctor is there for you whenever you need her and for as long as it takes to make you feel better and see results.  Dr. Meenakshi works tirelessly until she figures out exactly what I need to heal, whether it be for a recurrence of shingles, or rosacea, alopecia, retinal and other eye issues, issues related to menopause, or high blood pressure. She has been there for me every step of the way!" *

Child ailments - Ear infections, Wheezing, Pneumonia, Urinary infection
"Dr. Meenakshi has been taking care of my daughter for past 8 years. She had back to back ear infections, followed by wheezing, pneumonia and urinary infection soon after she turned one year old. Her paediatrician even suggested prophylactic antibiotics for urinary infection. After we started Dr. Meena's treatment, she started getting much fewer of colds, and colds rarely caused ear infection and wheezing. And we found that the urinary infection was a result of overuse of antibiotics. We rarely had to use antibiotics or steroid inhalers later. She had milk protein allergy from birth, but she could have milk without any issues when she turned 3 years. She is now 9 and still Dr. Meena is our go to person for any health issue my daughter gets. 
Adult - Allergies, Stress 
Dr. Meena has also successfully treated me for allergies, menstrual issues and stress management.  Dr. Meena explains everything in detail. My understanding of health, food and medicine has changed considerably after meeting her. Dr. Meena usually responds to emails within a day even when she is on vacation overseas. She has returned by emails and suggested medication multiple times from India.  We never felt that Dr. Meena runs her clinic as a business. We walk into the clinic like we are visiting a family friend. Any follow ups and issues between two appointments is not charged for.  Dr. Meena is a very considerate and passionate person. She has the true spirits of a doctor. Our family is always grateful to her and we wish her the very best." *

Child - Allergies, ADD, Tourette's Syndrome (Tics)
"We have been seeing Dr Bhargava for last 8 years for various reasons. Let me start with when my boy was 2 year old and we were doing traditional medicines. Each week his allergies were getting worse to point where we were giving Singulair, Albuterol, Flonase, Zyrtec and Nebulizer , all in one day.  I could not see my kid ingesting so many chemicals and decided to turn Homeopathy way. 6 months, few diet changes and patience later we were able to wean off all steroid meds; 3-4 mos , no more medications for allergies. Past 7 yrs I have had to not do much as a Claritin for his allergies as he has none. When he was 6 he was officially diagnosed with ADD inattentive type with tics(Tourette's Syndrome) as his symptoms. Panicking and pressure from teachers we tried allopathy again but ridiculous side effects had us almost get him out of school. Again we turned to homeopathy. This is still an ongoing condition but Homeopathy has helped take away the tics. Regular meds from Dr Bhargava has helped me have a healthy and happy boys sans any side effects. 

If you understand Homeopathy and have patience for things to be cured from it's root instead of taking allopathy which only helps mask symptoms then I would highly recommend her. Another note as a person from India theres a lot of them out their practicing as homeopathic consultants but they are not real deal. Please do your research and then pick a provider. Homeopath doctors have to go to school and intern just like traditional MDs. Hope this helps you in making a better choice." *

Ulcerative Colitis
"I consulted Dr.Meenakshi Bhargava when I had a flare-up of what allopathic doctors suspected to be Ulcerative Colitis. They would not treat my condition until they confirmed it was UC by doing a colonoscopy. However, the risks associated with colonoscopy and the side effects of the proposed treatment, made me to look for alternative medicines. 
Dr. Meenakshi prescribed medicines that improved my symptoms within the next couple of days. She is very patient, is very responsive to my questions, and accommodates additional appointments when necessary. After about a month's treatment, I am almost normal. I would recommend her to family/friends" *

Seasonal Allergies
"I want to thank Meenakshi for her wonderful work. She helped my son who suffered from seasonal allergies. The treatment prescribed worked and we could see dramatic improvement. I highly recommend her as a great practitioner to anyone seeking healing from homeopathy." *

Stomach Issues
"I approached Meenakshiji first time in November 2003 about my stomach and intestinal bloating. This problem resulted in pain, discomfort, burning sensation, and loss of appetite. Previous to that I used allopathic treatment for about 15 months but problem did not go away. By June 2005 my stomach problem come under control by Homeopathic medication. After that I took medication on need basis only.
 
In November 2007 similar problem reappeared and was diagnosed as irritable bowel syndrome by my physician. I tried allopathic treatment again for about 15 months but with no success. In January 2009 I went back to Meenakshiji. By November 2012 I recovered fully with Homeopathic medication. Since then I am taking medication on need basis only.  A success story using Homeopathic treatment!" *

Upper Arm Pain
"After my recent trip to India I began to suffer from a dull upper arm ache to stronger one growing day by day. Being a classical dancer by professional I began to really worry as I was almost unable to raise my right arm.  I happened to meet to Dr Meenakshi (for my daughter) during the week when I was suffering. Seeing my discomfort she asked what was wrong with my arm. I told her what my symptoms and what was happening. She immediately helped me out. Dr talked me out in to some stress that I was possibly holding on to. Showed by couple of stretches and gave me some homeopathy medications. Boooom!!!!! with on 2 days the pain vanished and I began to have the full range of motion.  Dr Meenakshi just does not treat only your medical condition also listens to you well and relives any mental stress. She is very friendly and very approachable. We are indeed fortunate have Drs like Meenakshi serving our community with her expertise and knowledge in the field of Homeopathy. Thank you Dr. " *

Eczema, Skin disorders
"Both my sons has very severe eczema issues. Their face, hands, legs used to bleed and were rough and patchy. Thanks to Dr. Meena, with her treatment and guidance both my sons are good. Their skin has no scars and is smooth. Does not show any signs of them having skin allergies. Dr. Meena's treatment was smooth, never had any situation where we had side effects/reaction going out of control. I am very happy to have struck to Homeopathy and Dr. Meena.
Behavioral disorder
My son aged 4 was overactive, was very naughty. He would not sit at a place. He was the master of his own time; After starting one course of medication from Dr. Meena, his behavioral  pattern has changed; we have heard good reviews from his teacher." *

Hyper Thyroid
"Dr. Meenakshi treated me for hyper thyroid in late 2009. Before I came to see her, I underwent tens of tests and visited doctors in the best hospitals in the Bay area. I had nightly fevers and was losing weight. None of the doctors that I saw diagnosed me with hyperthyroid. Then through a stroke of good fortune I came to see Dr. Meenakshi who immediately diagnosed me with hyperthyroid by looking at my throat, hands and symptoms. She asked me to get tests done which confirmed the diagnosis. I was fully healed with her medicine in about 6-8 weeks. And have not taken any medicine for my thyroid since then. I have gotten regular tests done and they have been normal." *

GERD, Allergies
"I have been visiting Dr. Bhargava since the start of this year. I was suffering from GERD for some time and would do a course of allopathy medicines every few months. Since taking her medicines I have not required the allopathy medicines. I also suffer from various allergies and her medicines have helped me greatly during the last year.  I have more energy and I am able to do a lot more compared to prior years. Dr. Bhargava is very attentive and a patient listener.  Her tips on alternate food products and other ideas to help alleviate the health problems have been invaluable. I am very happy with Dr. Bhargava and would highly recommend her." *

General family health issues
"I am very fortunate to have found such a great Homeopathic doctor in the Bay Area. Dr. Meenakshi Bhargava is compassionate, knowledgeable, easily accessible and such a great listener. Apart from being a very knowledgeable and an experienced homeopathic doctor, she is very gentle with the patients, makes the patient feel comfortable to tell more about his/her condition, sets the correct expectation and is always available on phone / e-mail for any clarifications after visit. My children visit their physicians only for annual checkups, everything else is taken care by Dr. Bhargava. My daughters and me can't thank her enough for getting us on the road to good health for the past 5 years and counting." *

Eczema​
"Our son had eczema issues since birth. We heard about Dr Meenakshi  from our friend and our first appointment with her was when our son was only 6 months old. Our experience has been really good since then. Dr.Meenakshi is very attentive and listens to all our concerns. She is very responsive over phone and email if we need any assistance. My son's eczema has completely cleared now and we have not seen any flare-ups in the past 6 months. We are very thrilled about his progress. Apart from his eczema we consult with Dr.Meenakshi for my son's cold/cough, fever etc. She is always very quick to respond and we are very happy with our outcome. I would certainly recommend her to my friends/family." *

Allergies, Flu, Tonsillitis, Sprain
"It has been nearly 10 years since my daughter and I started seeing Dr. Bhargava.  Our previous homeopathy doctor had retired at that time and I was fortunate to learn about Dr. Bhargava’s practice in Los Gatos.  My daughter at that time was a teenager. Since that time, Dr. Bhargava has successfully treated us for allergies, aches and pains from injuries, flu, tonsillitis, ankle sprains and more recently an ankle fracture.  Her sensitive, warm, caring approach and emphasis on the body-mind connection aligns with our philosophy about patient treatment and medicine.  Taking care of people and ensuring they have the correct remedies for their issues is clearly an inner calling for Dr. Bhargava.  A direct quote from my daughter who is now in her twenties and in medical school, 'I have always appreciated that Dr. Bhargava takes ample time to interface with her patients. I never feel rushed.'  We are grateful we can see someone who is passionate about her work and helping people get back into balance." *

"Incurable" ailment
"I came to Meenakshi a few years back with a diagnosis which had “no cure”. It was either ‘manage’ the condition or have invasive surgery etc. At this point, I am 90% on my way to being cured. It took some time and patience but, my quality of life and peace of mind is restored. I am very thankful. More so, as it comes at no side effects and harsh/local solutions." *

Various ailments​​ over 15 years
"Dr. Bhargava has been our family homeopath for almost fifteen years now. Homeopathy has been our first line of defense for any ailment and Dr Bhargava has always come through for us. My children have grown up with minimum antibiotics, no inhalers or any other hormonal or steroidal treatments as of writing this because of the sharp acumen and  vast knowledge of homeopathy that Dr Bhargava possesses. She is also an extremely caring, warm and compassionate person and and easily the best homeopath I've come across" *

Skin disease, Auto immune disorder (Lichen Planus)
"​Dr. Bhargava performed nothing short of a miracle with me.  I had a skin disease diagnosed as the auto-immune condition, Lichen Planus.  This nasty condition can last for years with continuous outbreaks and horrible itchiness. The cause is unknown although it can be stress induced.  I was prescribed steroid creams which I refused to use due to side effects.  My skin was constantly itching and I had a rash over my entire body for a few months.  After an initial comprehensive session with Dr. Bhargava, I was prescribed some homeopathic medicine.  Within two weeks, my outbreaks had stopped completely and my itching was 90% gone.  It continues to improve and I just have marks to prove I had the condition which she tells me should be gone in 6 months.  I can't tell you what a difference this has made in my life.  I highly recomment Dr. Bhargava.  She is a saint--compassionate, professional, knowledgeable and a miracle worker!" *

Respiratory Infections
"I have been seeing Dr Meenakshi for over a year. My toddler kept getting respiratory infections (bronchitis/bronchiolitis/pneumonia) every couple of months. Since antibiotics weren't doing the trick we decided to try homeopathy. Initially we were quite skeptical however, we had run out of options. I'm very glad we made that decision. My daughter's health has vastly improved and the best part is she's not taking any antibiotics. She does get sick once in a while, but her recovery is quite speedy and is usually resigned to cough/cold and not respiratory infections. Dr. Meenakshi is always diligent in replying emails/phone calls. She was even available over weekends, to answer questions. She always follows up on her patients. If we needed to see her, she would always work us into her busy schedule. We've quite convinced of the benefits of homeopathy that now I even take my older child to Dr. Meenakshi. I do appreciate all she has done to keep my family healthy." *

Ear infectons, Allergies
"I started going to Dr Meenakshi after my 2 year old daughter had several ear infections. Almost every cold used to turn into an ear infection for my daughter. But after starting with Dr Meenakshi's treatment for the past one year, the frequency of ear infections reduced considerably.Dr Meenakshi also helped me in treating my allergies. I had to use a nasal spray everyday for reducing the allergy symptoms. But the homeopathy medicine helped me a lot and now I don't use the spray at all.


I am very happy that I went to Dr Meenakshi for me and my daughter's treatment. She is a wonderful person. She is very caring and understanding. At times she even called me on weekends when my daughter was not well and treated her. I want to thank Dr Meenakshi for her care and guidance and let her know how much we appreciate her advice." *

Eczema, Asthma
"I have suffered from severe eczema most of my life, and asthma for many years. I have worked with homeopathics before who were able to help me with acute situations, but never my chronic problems. Dr. Bhargava is the first homeopath I have found who found a constitutional remedy for me, that made a significant difference in my situation. With her help I have been able to completely get off of the inhalers and cortisone creams. Even when I have gotten acute lung conditions that used to put me on antibiotics, she has managed to help me recover without antibiotics. In addition I have found that her approach has helped to work deeper on the emotional level of healing as well." *

Chronic Asthma, Eating Disorder
"Dr. Meenakshi is a very patient and a very talented doctor. Both our kids have been under her care. Our younger one had a problem with eating and would throw up very often. The older one has had a chronic asthma. Thanks to all the directions, medicines and careful care instructions from Dr. Meenakshi, both of them have turned around. The younger one has no instances of throwing up and eating problems anymore. The instances of asthma attacks for the older one have come down drastically. We are very glad and thankful to have found Dr. Meenakshi." *

Severe Asthma, Nose allergy
"
I have been taking my children (son CV, 10 and daughter SV, 5) to Dr. Meenakshi for the last 6 months). I did not know much about homeopathy nor did I believe in alternative medicine. However, my children had been almost continuously sick for more than a year with respiratory problems and I was ready to try something else other than allopathy. My daughter had severe asthma which would get triggered by colds. She had a major asthma attack at least once a month and would miss school for a week when she was recovering. Allopathic doctors asked us to put her on ventolin/albuterol regimen - but this did not give her much relief. Using both those inhalers is prone to error and you can never figure out whether the child has received the proper dosage. Also steroids on a regular basis at the age of 5 did not seem right to me. Since going to Dr. Bhargava, the frequency of the asthma attacks has dropped dramatically and she's improving well.

My son had a constant stuffed nose/allergy induced asthma cough. Here too I see a big improvement. The allopathic doctors basically said he couldn't be helped and had to grow out of it himself.

My insurance does not cover visits to Dr. Bhargava, but this is one of the few times that I feel it is money well spent. She follows through with the medication and adjusts doses as necessary. She also suggests other home remedies to give relief from the immediate symptoms. My children have been a lot healthier and I have been happier since going to Dr. Bhargava." *

Pollen Allergies 
"I have had severe pollen allergies for more about 10 years. I tried just about everything, from antihistamines, shots, nasal sprays, acupuncture, Chinese herbs, etc.. Nothing seemed to be working other than antihistamines, which gave me sinus infections. I even tried learning homeopathy and treating myself. Then I read about Meenakshi’s homeopathic clinic, and decided to give it a try. Within few weeks, my allergies got much better. The non-stop cough was reduced to occasional also. It's mid September now with ragweed in full swing, and for a change I'm able to sit outside and eat lunch. Thanks to Meenakshi" *

Recurring headaches
"My 12 year old daughter had been suffering from frequent headaches, periodically during the day, especially when exposed to excessive heat. I discussed this with her pediatrician several times. The only advice she gave us was to wear sunglasses when going out in the sun. My daughter’s headaches started coming more frequently, making it difficult for her to participate in P.E. in school.

At that time I decided to see Dr. Meenakshi in order to try homeopathic treatment for my daughter. Doctor Meenakshi helped us assess the problem, and asked my daughter to take homeopathic remedy. She took the medicine regularly for a year and then slowly cut back the medication and now she takes it occasionally only when she has a headache. After a year of treatment, her condition has improved greatly.

We also consulted Dr. Meenakshi for the treating sports injuries. My daughter is a gymnast and frequently sprains her ankle. Every time she hurts herself I put her on Homeopathic medicine recommended by Dr. Meenakshi. Her recovery is twice as fast as it would have been without homeopathic treatment" *

Asthma & allergies
"Our 6-year old son was having a consistent early-morning cough from Feb 2003. He would be fine during the rest of the day. When we consulted the doctor in Aug 2003, he was diagnosed with asthma due to allergies. He was put on the steroidal inhaler (Flovent) with the instructions to use it whenever he had a cold/cough in the future. After the initial 6-week course of flovent, we decided to try homeopathic treatment. That is when we started medication prescribed by Dr. Bhargava. We were really happy with her treatment. Due to her treatment and guidance, our son has been medication-free since October 2003 till now. We were pretty impressed with the fact that we were able to survive the whole winter season with no medication, not even over-the-counter drugs. Recently, we made a trip to India and were slightly concerned due to the pollution there but much to our relief, he stayed perfectly healthy during the trip." *

Recurring ear infections, Gastritis
"We are very pleased with the results we saw for my entire family after Meenakshi’s homeopathic treatment. My son's recurring ear infections are history; he did not have any for the last one year. My husband's health has also improved. He is sleeping fine now and his gas problems have reduced. My health has improved. My skin problems and my IBS problems got improved after taking homeopathic and natural remedy (acidophilus and probiotic).Our general health has improved a lot. We are very thankful to you." *

Eczema, Sensitive skin
"My ten year old daughter has very sensitive skin and when she started to suffer from eczema and the ointments I gave her didn't work our family practitioner prescribed a topical steroid. This was not my idea of treatment because of the side effects and the superficial concept of suppressing symptoms instead of looking into causes.
Dr. Meenakshi looked at my daughter as a personality and found a homeopathic medicine for her that helped her skin heal within 2 days ! I am very grateful to have found such a knowledgeable and compassionate doctor in Dr. Meenakshi." *

Asthma
"Our daughter SK is eight and has been receiving homeopathic treatment for asthma for several years from Dr. Meenakshi Bhargava. Her health has been very good. She needs to use her inhaler very infrequently. She is able to participate in all physical activities at school without any problem. We are grateful to Dr. Meenakshi for helping 
SK to keep her asthma under control and lead a normal life." *

Eczema, Digestive problems
"I began to see Dr. Bhargava for chronic cramps and bloating after meals, and for eczema. After some 10 years of symptoms I was no longer eating milk products or meat, but to no avail. With homeopathic treatment I quickly began to feel relief, even while beginning to eat a diet without restrictions. After about 6 months my stomach pouch is gone and cramps are rare, something not experienced in years. My eczema is reduced, although it flares up now and then. But I feel back in control, with more respect for and awareness of the delicate balance that is health." *

Arthritis
"Arthritis: Inflamation in the joints in my hand and feet. The rheumatalogist recommended Enbrel, but that required a commitment for life. Also, it was considered very strong and the side effects were not quite clear. Hence, I was reluctant to begin any treatment with the rheumatologist. My treatment included heavy-duty Ibuprofen daily. I also tried changing my diet along with taking enzymes and antioxidants. The results were fantastic, but if I did not stick with the diet or take the enzymes or antioxidants, my pain returned immediately. This treatment was obviously keeping my pain suppressed but not curing my arthritis.
I tried homeopathy with mixed results initially. The pain was soon accompanied by burning and heaviness of the feet. The symptoms were more inflamed at first. After at least 4 changes of medicine, the pain is now quite reduced. With Dr. Meenakshi's help, the inflammation and the pain first stopped traveling around the body, and then significantly reduced. Dr. Meenakshi first stopped the pain from moving from one part of the body to another. Then, with close monitoring of the medicine and the dosage, Dr. Meenakshi has reduced the pain by 85%.
Dr. Meenakshi is wonderful to work with. She is compassionate, warm, and really committed to helping her patients. She monitors closely, sets realistic expectations, and provides great care to all patients.

Asthma
"I visited Dr. Meenaxi for two medical conditions: Asthma and tingling and numbness all over body 24 hours a day. The second condition was urgent for me because I was going to school for MSW, and I had to drop out of my MSW Internship classes. 
MEDICAL CONDITION: I have medical insurance with Kaiser. I saw my physician; they took blood tests, MRI, CAT Scan, and neurologist and even a psychologist. (Normally we have a misunderstanding regarding a psychologist or psychiatrist because of the stigma attached to it. But I was a student and was learning health/mental health). So, I saw a psychologist who diagnosed me with anxiety and was willing to prescribe medication which I declined. And then came across Dr. Meenaxi’s name by chance. 
CONSULTION: Dr. Meenaxi personally my phone called and set up the appointment. The initial consultation took close to 95 minutes. Homeopathic consultation is radically different from the traditional Western model. Dr. Meenaxi covered bio-psycho-social aspects of me as a person-in-environment. She gave me homeopathic medicine for tingling and numbness, and suggested I take the herb Pipali with milk. 
RESULTS: Tingling and numbness were significantly reduced in less than one week. If I have to give a percentile for this improvement, I must say it was more than 80-85 percent improvement. In the second week tingling and numbness was AND IS COMPLETELY GONE. I saw my physician at Kaiser and informed of my progress. The physician happily surprised. 
FOLLOW UP FOR ASTHMA: Dr. Meenaxi followed up on my asthma. I have been admitted to Kaiser for asthma, and had to rush to Emergency rooms 4 times before I saw Dr. Meenaxi. I was prescribed Inhalers: Qvar 80 four puffs a day, plus Albuterol 2 puffs every two hours for the first two weeks. Dr. Meenaxi always said that I must not discard any allopathic medicines but that my condition would improve in such a way that I would not need as many dosages of inhalers like Qvar and Albuterol. 
RESULTS: My conditions did improved. I was able to breathe easily, and consequently reduce the dosages of Qvar to two puffs a day- one in the morning and one in the evening. I was able to skip albuterol inhalation for several hours, and reduced it to only when needed, may be once a day, or twice a week. Over several weeks I was able to wean away from Qvar completely for over two-three months. I must say that even my physician was impressed that I can skip steroid based Qvar. 

I am not completely cured. I still have to keep Albuterol with me. I use Qvar may be once or twice a week one puff or maximum two puffs in a day. On a personal level I can and must say with all objectivity (and little bit of subjectivity) that Dr. Meenaxi is superb human being in the garb of a professional. She never rushed me out of the clinic (which is to say that unlike the traditional doctors who are allotted only 20 minutes per patient) she took all the time to fully assess me as a person and interacted with respect. She is culturally competent and exhibited a genuine care and concern. I felt in her presence an aura of peacefulness and calm. 
I feel fully and perfectly comfortable to recommend Dr. Meenaxi to anyone." *
