In march 2021 I had my first endoscopy and I was diagnosed with small hiatal hernia. My doctor said symptoms can be cured by medication with lifestyle changes and surgery is immediately required. For one whole year I tried medication with lifestyle changes but the situation got worse for me. I had following symptoms:1) Acid- reflux2) Random chest pain (on both sides)3) it felt like something is stuck in my throat and I was always trying to cough it out.4) Heartburn, generally when I am hungry5) Shortness of breath.6) whenever I was eating something, I felt like vomiting.In march 2022, I went to Bangalore for the treatment and I had my second endoscopy. Now that small hernia is converted into a large hiatal hernia with fundal erosions.The doctor who did endoscopy has suggested me to go for 24 PH hour manometry before surgery. Instead I went to surgeon Gowda and told him everything. He talked for almost 10 minutes'and suggested me to go for fundoplication. He was kind enough to answer my doubts through WhatsApp, he made me sure that the symptoms will disappear and will not persist after the surgery. I will be able to Live a normal Life again So I went for surgery with him on 8th April 2022.Now after 2 months of surgery I am having following symptoms:1) unexplained left shoulder pain which is very severe sometimes even painkillers won't work. ******* ***** *** ** **** ***** *** **** ** ********** Whenever I ask him what's wrong he says it will settle down.2) sometimes I face problem in swollowing food 3) it feels like something is stucj in my throat and I am trying to cough it out.4) severe heartburn when I am hungry5) I lost around 5 kgs of wait6) shortness of breath7) my diet is cut by 50% because i feel full too early nowI would suggest to choose your surgeon carefully before going for surgery and do not avoid pH manometry. **** **** ******* ** *** *** ******** ** **** ******* *** **** ** ****** * **** ********* ****Read less

But the way he promptly responded to those made me consult him. I had a very good experience at the clinic. I hardly had to wait for 5 minutes before consultation and came out of the clinic within 15-20 minutes. Both the receptionist and Doctor were friendly. I was having stomach aches and digestive issues. The doctor patiently listened to the symptoms, did a physical exam and diagnosed the issue as post infective IBS. He prescribed some tablets, suggested some lifestyle changes and asked to take an ultrasound scan and mail him if the issues persisted beyond 3 days. I am writing this story after completing my course of tablets and after an extra few days. My digestive issues are completely healed now and I am feeling good as ever.Thank you Doctor for your help. Readers, please don't be concerned about the negative feedbacks!!Read less

Dr Gowda was very effective in diagnosing the issue and immediately suggesting an MRI fistulogram. He was caring and empathic in explaining all options for my treatment while starting me on an antibiotic course to reduce the discharge. He was able to correlate both diagnostic and clinical findings in suggesting the right course of treatment.
I could not get the surgery done by him (due to my own reasons)- but purely on his basis of keeping the patients interest first, his accurate diagnosis, his friendliness and his warmth in explaining both the issue and treatment options - I would recommend and rate him highly for his field and expertise.
God bless him for all his efforts.Read less

The surgery took 20-30 mins and was painless since I was under anesthesia. As of now some pain still persists, but it's much better than the first 5 days. Dr. Gowda is one of the best doctors I have had because he's reliable, responsive and experienced in his field. It's very clear that he puts the patients interests and concerns over everything else and always responds on whatsapp. He will be my go-to doctor for all gastro related issues. I definitely recommend him!Read less
