Doctor is friendly and patient with listening. No over the top chest beating explaination but rather giving pin pointed observations. I did a simple test on me where he wanted to look into my throat. Although a uncomfortable one he made the process simple and explained what it would feel like and made me comfortable before we started. He is experienced and speaks only when needed and once you are comfortable will speak give examples to help you understand that you are not alone when it comes to a particular problem. I'm yet to finish my treatment but for now would recommend doctor !

Doctor was really good and he listens all the issues from patients and acted according
He has given right course of medication
Visited For Sore Throat
I had sore throat and the doctor prescribed me cefixime for 5 days. As the things did not improve, he extended it to another 5 days. He indicated that surgery to remove tonsils might only help. Even at the end of 10 days course of antibiotics and other medicines, my throat still hurt. At this point, he prescribed me penicillin for another ten days. Saying that if this does not help, I ll have to get surgery. Instead of taking more antibiotics that screwed up my stomach royally, I went to another ENT who assured me surgery was not required and acid reflux was causing my throat to hurt. So, she just asked me to gargle, eat some probiotics and gave me medicine for acid reflux. My throat was completely fine in 5-7 days. Dr Babu failed to diagnose me correctly.
Visited For Nasal Disorders
Hoped for better: Doctor friendlinessTreatment satisfaction
Was carried away by the good reviews. He’s good at what he does but he forces upon things on the patients. For ex: He said to get a test done and we coming from electronic city told him that we would get there tests done from e-city. However he was so adamant that he wanted us to get the tests done only from ****** Diagnostics” which i felt was forceful. Upon asking why, he gave some explaination which didnt make any. Also we wanted to get the extended bone in the nose to be removed, he said we have to remove tonsils first ***** ***** ***** **** *** ****** His prescription pad says St. Johns but he practices at Gangothri hospital and said we had to get operated in gangothri itself. This looks very skeptical & would really suggest you guys do a through check before visiting this doctor.
Visited For Throat infections
I will not recommend this doctor. I visited the doctor for my throat pain. *** ** *** **** ********** **** ** ******* ********* I have acidity problem since last 4 yrs but I have never got throat pain. I was in mumbai for 2 months and due to weather change and cold I was getting throat pain.
The Dr gave me for blood and thyroid test though I have no problem with thyroid.
The dr gave me sucralfate medicine which is used for curing intestinal infections. I don't know why this was prescribed to me.
Then I visited another Dr and he prescribed some medicines which I am having since last 1 week and feeling pretty much better.

Doctor was very friendly in nature. He explained me in details about my cold and allergy problem.
Consultation fee is 300 Rs.
I am taking medicine as suggest by him and feeling a change with the disease.
Doctor's clinic location is at best location near to Jayadeva bridge.
Clinic was good and hygiene.
Thanks again to doctor. :)

Very very unprofessional doctor. He was only talking about surgery. Was not even ready to write medicine. Inspite of knowing that the patient is a heart patient and 65 year old he was still reluctant on doing surgery somehow whereas the issue was just one day of medicine which is already cured after consulting another doctor. Really very bad
I dont feel right to comment on such an experienced doctor. So, i cant review the medication and process he followed. His conduct is good. He speaks well and potrays great examples to resemble the issue. But, i feel that he is not a very good listener. I had many other things to ask, but he was very keen in sharing knowledge, rather than getting to know more about the patients related problems. But, his medication has worked. So, thank you doctor.
Visited For Sore ThroatTonsillitis Treatment
The doctor always seems to suggest tonsil removal surgery even if problem occurs rarely like once an year.
I read on net that frequency should be really high to get surgery like three times per year for three years
I changed the doctor and made rapid improvement under other doctor.
Will not recommend visiting this doctor again
