About Dr. Nikita Malhotra
Dr. Nikita Malhotra is an Associate Consultant in the Department of Neurology and Neurosciences at Medanta - The Medicity, Gurugram — one of India's most respected multi-specialty hospitals. With over five years of clinical experience, she works across a broad range of neurological conditions, from stroke and epilepsy to movement disorders and neuroimmunological diseases like Multiple Sclerosis. Patients and families often describe her as someone who takes the time to explain things clearly, which matters enormously when a loved one is facing a complex neurological diagnosis.
Dr. Malhotra's academic path reflects a deep and consistent commitment to neurology. She completed her MBBS and MD in Internal Medicine before pursuing a Doctorate in Neurology (DrNB) at Army Hospital Research and Referral — one of India's premier medical institutions. She then went on to complete a coveted Post-Doctoral Fellowship in Stroke Neurology, equipping her with specialized skills in managing both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, as well as guiding patients through the critical phases of post-stroke recovery and rehabilitation.
Her clinical interests span a wide spectrum. She has a particular passion for neuroimmunology, especially Multiple Sclerosis, and is experienced in managing autoimmune and demyelinating conditions that are often difficult to diagnose and treat. She is also proficient in Botox therapy for spasticity — a treatment that can meaningfully improve quality of life for patients with movement difficulties following stroke or other neurological events.
For international patients, Dr. Malhotra offers the combination of advanced subspecialty training, access to Medanta's world-class infrastructure, and a genuinely patient-centered approach. Whether you are seeking a second opinion on a stroke diagnosis, ongoing management for Parkinson's disease or epilepsy, or expert care for a complex neuroimmunological condition, Gaf Healthcare can help you connect with her and plan your entire care journey from abroad.
