Dr Mehta was my dr for 33 years. He delivered 2 of my sons. His dad had passed away on the day my first was born. So he took care of me the 9 months but didn´t deliver my first. He is so missed.

Dr. Mehta helped me and my Husband to have our baby and I respected him for that he was the greatest Dr. I ever had. He remembered me when I saw him at the hospital and I couldn't believe it because he had a lot of patients but he would always ask me how my kids were doing. My deepest condolences to you and your family. May he rest in peace. I will miss seeing him.
