Sec. 80 DDB is for specific diseases, which require Specialist doctor's certificate. If you are eligible for same, you can claim.

Yes you can claim if you have the required docs/certf.
Maximum deduction is Rs. 40,000 (Rs. 1,00,000 where expenditure is incurred for a senior citizen [w.e.f assessment year 2019-20])
The taxpayer shall be required to obtain a prescripttion from a specialist doctor (not necessarily from a doctor working in a Government hospital) for availing this deduction
