Mr. Premnath Balla

We have a 6 yr old child on the spectrum and like many parents, we explored multiple therapy options over the last 3 years. We went to different therapists in various cities, tried 3-4 therapies at a time — speech, OT, ABA, etc. Each therapist claimed that we’ll see significant improvement in 4–6 months. But even after 1 to 1.5 years, the changes were minimal and fragmented. Worse, the forced learning environment made our child more irritable and stubborn. Some behaviors like hitting and biting even worsened. When we asked the therapists why these behaviors were increasing, they gave unconvincing answers — "pressure on joints," "one leg is longer," "joint laxity in wrist/knee/fingers," etc. The child would do some tasks in therapy out of fear, but revert to old patterns at home. Speech and understanding improved a bit over 3 years, but there was still a big gap between biological age and mental development.

Myself Mounika is writing a review on Dr. Premanath Balla and about his treatment.

Hare Krishna. I am Samarth Krishna Das, a celibate Monk at ISKCON (International Society for Krishna Consciousness) Hyderabad. Being a Monk, teaching and singing devotional songs is a part of my everyday life. Due to which I kind of lost my vocal strength and clarity over a period of time due to muscle tension dysphonia.

In a world where every word counts and people judge you based on how and what you speak, finding a doctor who is genuine and skilled is truly a rarity. Dr. Premnath Balla is one of those exceptional individuals.
