Pain in the region of the coccyx (tailbone) occurs more often in women; the patient often attributes the trouble to a minor injury like a kick or a fall. The symptoms persist indefinitely and are annoying rather than incapacitating.

A couple of years back when my uncle Dr D K Tandon was diagnosed with Dementia, we were looking for a decent place where he can be taken care of. We chanced upon Vardaan Senior Citizen centre. I spoke to Dr Rekha Khandelwal and found her to be quite empathetic & considerate in her approach. My uncle is staying in Vardaan for last couple of years and we are grateful to Dr Rekha and her staff for taking care of my uncle.
My mother, Manorama Devi, was a patient of Parkinson’s disease and paralysis. We were managing her at home but due to complications of the illness and lack of trained caregivers I had to shift her to Vardaan Senior Citizens Home. Vardaan is truly home away from home and the entire staff under the able guidance of both Dr Rekha Khandelwal and Dr Rajiv Khandelwal works tirelessly to make the senior citizens feel at home.
