I was suffering from severe cough, cold and headache. I consulted with so many doctors, but did not get relief. My friend told me about Dr. Satinder and I consulted with him. He gave five days medicine for these symptoms. Surprisingly, I got relief in two days only. I am thankful for his great treatment that he had given to me. Thanks a lot.
