During our visit to Santosh Hospital, Dr. Atif referred my dad for admission and throughout his stay, he consistently suggested numerous tests, seemingly emphasizing insurance coverage over genuine medical need. After a week of hospitalization, we had a follow-up consultation at his clinic. However, this session left me baffled, as he provided minimal examination and opted to administer drips without proper explanation. When I tried to seek clarity, he rejected my inquiries and denied any further consultation, simply because I wanted to understand the medicines and follow-up procedures.
As a family-oriented individual with a 20-month-old child suffering from viral fever, he ask me to compromise on a small Kid for the sake of my father which is so pathetic words used being a doctor my schedule is demanding. Due to this, I entrusted my sister and brother with my father's care during his treatment, but unfortunately, Dr. Atif did not explain the medicines or provide guidance to them either. When I eventually managed to visit his clinic, he refused to attend to my father's case further and recommended we seek another doctor. **** ************* ** ******* **** ***** ****** ** *** ******** *** *********** ******* costing me nearly a lakh of rupees.***** ****** ************* ******* ******** ** ********* *** *** ******** ***** ** ********* ******* ** *********** * ****** **** *** **** **** ** *********** ******** ***** **** ******* ******* ***** This attitude has severely affected my father's emotional and mental well-being, particularly since he is dealing with chronic TB and coloanal disease. Rather than offering a sense of hope and comfort, Dr. Atif's approach leaves patients feeling discomfort and fear.
In conclusion, based on my unfortunate experience, I strongly discourage seeking medical assistance from Dr. Atif. It is essential for patients to have a doctor who is not only knowledgeable but also compassionate and empathetic, qualities that, unfortunately, were missing in this case.
