Providing Neurological Care with Empathy

Dr Laxmi Patil is a Consultant Neurologist and Movement Disorders Specialist practising at Breach Candy Hospital in South Mumbai. She has comprehensive training in Internal Medicine, Neurology, and Movement Disorders. She specializes in the diagnosis and management of a wide range of neurological conditions affecting the brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerves, and muscles, with particular expertise in movement disorders, Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, tremors, and other neurodegenerative conditions. Her clinical practice integrates advanced diagnostic and therapeutic modalities, including Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) and Botulinum Toxin therapy, to optimize patient outcomes and improve quality of life.

Dr Patil believes that excellent neurological care extends beyond prescribing medications. She combines evidence-based medicine with a compassionate, patient-centred approach, taking time to understand each patient's physical, emotional, and psychological concerns. She works closely with patients and their families throughout their treatment journey, providing guidance, reassurance, and individualised care at every stage.

Alongside her clinical practice, Dr. Patil has a strong passion for academics and research. She regularly presents her work at national neurology conferences, and clinical summits where she is recognised for delivering clinically relevant, patient-focused, and easy-to-understand presentations.
