Visited For Asthma
Happy with: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for money
He, no doubt, a very good specialist but he needs to plan the no of patients to attend on daily basis. If he takes leave half day, second half he should not allow many patients which he cannot handle. Minimum 2 hours waiting and in between he goes out for some cases without any estimation of time he comes back.
On top of that he makes the other junior doctors to go through the case when he does not have time.
This is a somewhat un acceptable and he must improve these sensitive issue of patient waiting time.

Consulted on 21st Oct 2017... in first sight, i found charming smiley face...has lots of patience while interacting....Keenly listened to my health issues...suggested life style changes....prescribed only tests that barely necessitated ...explained medication...Personally practised on usage of rotahaler.... In a nut shell, it remembered the treatments rendered by our personal doctors in the good olden days..... It is an awesome experience
Nice experience. I was diagnosed with TB LYMPHADENITIS in April and wasn't well since.
After I first met Nagarjuna sir at YASHODA Somajiguda, things changed. Perfect decision making beyond investigations.
Though he suggested investigations.. his medical advice started before the investigation results n yes definitely inline.
I am recovering with his medical advice n I believe I have made a good choice of the doctor.
