I was diagnosed with a complex fistula and perianal abscess in ano two months ago. I visited numerous clinics in this city claiming to specialize in this condition, but I was disappointed by the lack of experience among the doctors. Some were very young and unable to fully understand my issues* * **** ******* * ******* ** ************ ******* ** **** ** ******* *** ***** ************** ***** ******* ****** ** *********** ******* ******** ******** ****** ******** so I decided to consult him in Surgeon Gowda's clinic Hegde nagar. He immediately understood my concerns, acknowledged my specific issues, and made me feel comfortable. He arranged surgery at the best possible cost and hospital, even though I have insurance. *** ***** * ******** **** ***** *** ****** ************ *** ***** ***** ****** **** *** ******* * * ********** **** *****
I was initially terrified after watching YouTube videos and hearing from other so called specialists about potential wound size and pain. However, Dr. Gowda's expertise was evident. My wound size is much smaller than expected, and the pain and discharge are minimal post surgery. This is where his experience truly shines.
I've read some reviews mentioning that Dr. Gowda looks at his phone during consultations or doesn't fully listen to patients. In my experience, he is always available for support via WhatsApp. If he glances at his phone, it likely means he's addressing an emergency or another patient's needs – something you'll appreciate after being under his care. As for claims that he doesn't listen, I believe his experience allows him to quickly grasp the issues at hand. He operated on me in less than 15 minutes!
While I would have liked more time to speak with him before and after the surgery, I understand his busy schedule. With 3-5 surgeries and over 40 consultations daily, his priority is to improve people's lives, not to comfort each and every patient he attends !
You can blindly trust Dr. Gowda, especially for anorectal disorders. God bless him with abundant health and prosperity !

Hoped for better:Â Explanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for money
I had history of acid-reflux and heartburn from last two years. I have gone through many treatment but nothing worked. 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. **** **** ******* ** *** *** ******** ** **** ******* *** **** ** ****** * **** ********* ****

Took my father who was having bleeding while passing motions. After thorough history and examination doctor suggested we do colonoscopy. He was unfortunately diagnosed with rectal cancer from biopsy taken at the time of colonoscopy. Doctor explained staging process which included MRI rectum and CT scan. Luckily it was stage1 cancer. Doctor did Laparoscopic anterior resection and my father was discharged after just 4 days. Over all good experience. We are glad we went early as doctor was able to diagnosed and treat rectal cancer. Through out this difficult time doctor guided us and helped us all along the way. With out a doubt I would highly recommend Dr Maruthesh Gowda for colon cancer or rectal cancer treatment and surgery.

Surgery mithra helped me to set up video consultation with Dr Maruthesh after I was detected with cholelithiasis in master health check up as live in Marathalli. I had consulted a surgeon who had advised immediate surgery near to my home. Doctor explained possible complications of infection, jaundice and pancreatitis and stressed complications happens in only 5% of people. He said having Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is up to me in current condition. He gave honest opinion. If have gallbladder surgery then I will choose Dr Maruthehs Gowda.
