About
Being part of a large, well-respected, progressive group has definite advantages for both my patients and me. My patients gain access to more fully integrated care from me, their primary care physician, to the hospital, to a wider network of the area's best specialists, and to additional services and technologies that are not possible in a one physician office. And, I have peace of mind knowing that I am providing my patients with the best care possible.
Dr. Gaikwad is board certified in family medicine and is happy to be a part of MemorialCare Medical Group.

Dr. Gaikwad has been an absolute blessing to our family. Caring for a loved one with dementia is one of the most emotionally challenging experiences a family can face, and Dr. Gaikwad’s compassion and thoughtfulness make an enormous difference. She doesn’t just treat a condition — she truly sees and honors the person. Her gentle approach, patience, and genuine warmth are evident in every interaction, and it is clear she brings that same level of dedication to each of her patients. We are deeply grateful to have her in our corner.

Today’s visit was difficult and much needed. The medical assistant there today was professional, but was also extremely receptive to my emotional well being. He made me feel at home and I felt well taken care of. There was a moment where he could’ve chosen to check me off a list, or treat me like a human seeking help. Needless to say, I’m thankful for him being there.

I booked a virtual appointment on My Chart for Dr. Gaikwad. I wrote a personal email to the Doctor and asked if she is able to treat a specific disorder. This is so I do not waste her time and my money. I never got a response. I followed up with a second email, again no response. When the appointment happened, I asked her if she could treat a specific disorder and she COULD NOT. SURPRISE, I got a bill. I contacted the office and informed them what I did and they apologized and saw my emails and dropped the ball. I had a 12 dollar balance after my insurance paid for this, (no care appointment.) Of course I did not pay the 12 dollars that they billed me, and they decided to send it to a collection agency. I am furious! They are taking advantage of the healthcare system and patients. This has to stop!!!!!
