Virtually every medicine that is used by the adult rheumatologist - in the appropriate child, with very careful monitoring - is now used by our experienced pediatric rheumatologists with excellent outcomes. With new biologic therapies, many of them tested at Hospital for Special Surgery, along with physical therapy, the disease can be controlled and children can regain normal function.
A sharp, caring doctor. Dr Mehta stays up to date on the latest procedures. Everyone at Weill Cornell pain medicine seems outstanding.
I was so extremely impressed with Dr Mehta. After meeting with him before my procedure I was so fully aware of my situation and it was such a relief to understand it all. He is very intelligent, patient and well spoken. I am so grateful for him. After the procedure I felt great and have had no pain! Thank you Dr Mehta!
Very attentive clearly superb doctor and very helpful. Excellent office prompt appointment. Good follow up.
