Mommy and Me

I had the privilege of being under the care of Dr. Namrata during my pregnancy and my journey with PCOS, and I can't praise her enough for the incredible support and expertise she provided.

In a world where the 'C' in C-section seems to stand for "common," Dr. Namrata champions the 'N' in normal delivery with gusto.

My adventures in pregnancy began early on when I had bleeding episodes and contracted COVID during the 14th week of my pregnancy. Dr Namrata was not only my medical guide but also a pillar of support throughout this trying period.

One of the standout aspects of Dr. Namrata's care was her holistic approach to pregnancy. She encouraged me to maintain a healthy lifestyle, which included prenatal yoga and even recommended a Yoga Guru. This recommendation not only helped me maintain an optimal weight but also kept me active and energised throughout my pregnancy. Her guidance in this regard contributed significantly to my overall well-being and made the journey to motherhood more enjoyable.

The luxury of time she offers her patients is something I really appreciate. Appointments were never rushed; she never hesitated to dedicate ample time to explain, clarify, and address all of our concerns - no matter how trivial they may have seemed.

This is true for her appointments as well as queries on Whatsapp; she was always just a message away on WhatsApp, promptly addressing any doubts or concerns I had. This accessibility and her willingness to engage in open and clear communication gave me peace of mind throughout my pregnancy.

Though, I am one to get myself tested for every little thing, the doctor doesn't believe in overmedication or unnecessary tests and has a minimalist approach.

She's not one to prescribe a pharmacy-worth of pills or send you on a wild goose chase for endless tests/scans.

Additionally, I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes during my pregnancy. Instead of rushing to medication, Dr. Namrata encouraged me to manage it through diet and exercise, again emphasising the importance of a healthy lifestyle during pregnancy.

Then came the moment when my mucus plug decided it had better places to be at 35 weeks, and the prospect of a preterm delivery loomed large. However, the doctor was quick to respond with a plan to delay the delivery by a week and make it as smooth as possible for both me and my baby. Thanks to her expertise and guidance, my baby did not require a stay in the NICU, and the entire childbirth experience was remarkably smooth.

I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Namrata to any expectant mother looking for a compassionate and knowledgeable gynaecologist who values the importance of natural childbirth.

She's simply fantastic at what she does, and her results speak for themselves. No need for over-the-top praise, just heartfelt gratitude for a skilled, and compassionate gynaecologist who made my pregnancy journey an extraordinary one.

I will say 100% that we made the right decision in choosing Dr.Namrata Nagendra for my second pregnancy. Under her immense care, right treatment and guidance, I delivered a baby boy successfully on Sept 25, 2022 among complications like gestational diabetes and urinary tract infection.

I was in my native place during the conception of my second baby and was visiting local doctor for the first 4 months. At the end of 3rd month, I was diagnosed with diabetes and the local doctor gave me lots of stress and tension and totally demotivated me. That's when I started consulting Namrata doctor through video call. I chose the doctor purely based on the reviews and hence was bit skeptical. But starting from the first call, I liked the way doctor handled my situation and gave me the confidence to face it. I came back to Bangalore in 5th month and started visiting her in-person and that's when I got my peace of mind back. It was a big stress relief for me and I started enjoying my pregnancy. Under her guidance and along with yoga and diet control, I switched from insulin to tablet and then stopped tablet also, all in a span of 2.5 months. If we get diabetes, most doctors say that we need to take insulin or tablet till the end of the pregnancy or even post that. The local doctor also said the same. But I wanted to bring my sugar levels under control without any medication and the local doctor did not support me at all. She did not even listen to me. But Namrata doctor supported me, gave me the right guidance and helped me to stop medication and that was a big stress relief for me. Thank you very much Doctor!

Another stress factor was urinary tract infection in my 4th month. The local doctor asked me to take injection for 5 days but Namrata doctor asked me to stop it immediately because it was a powerful dose and could harm the baby. She gave me a low dose tablet and the infection got cured. She also stopped bunch of other tablets that I was taking as given by the local doctor. Namrata doctor gives minimum tablets and also of low dosage and also suggests minimal tests and scans.

Most doctors don't spend time with patients in listening to our concerns or worries. But Namrata doctor listens to patients concerns and worries and gives motivation, encouragement and positivity to handle the situation. At the same time, she is transparent in explaining the problem also and doesn't hide anything from us.

I wanted to try VBAC since my first delivery was c-section. Doctor was very supportive for that as well and explained me the criteria for it. But since my scar thickness was very thin, I wasn't able to try for normal and delivered through c-section. It was midnight 3 AM when my water broke and the baby passed motion as well inside the womb, so it was an emergent situation. Though it was night time, doctor immediately came to the hospital and successfully delivered the baby.

Even among these complications, doctor always motivated me to be active and never suggested me to take rest. Along with yoga, my post recovery was pretty fast compared to my first one, though my age got increased by 7 years between the 2 deliveries! For my first c-section I was very tired for the first 2-3 weeks but for my second c-section, I was able to climb stairs on my 3rd day and got pretty active in the first week itself!

Overall, 3 things about the doctor stands out - patience, positivity and easily approachable. Doctor is available on watsapp and is very prompt and responsive in answering our messages. It was a very pleasant experience with the doctor and I would strongly recommend this doctor to anyone.

I got pregnant during lockdown period. We found very difficult to find any gynecologist during that pandemic period. Then one of my close friend refer Dr. Namrata Nagendra's name. She was very friendly at the time of very first call and asked me to come to Mommy & Me Clinic. We got instant relief after meeting her as she was very friendly and explained everything in detail. I was more than 100Kg that time and she was the person who gave me confidence that it could be a healthy pregnancy if I could maintain proper diet. She broke the myth that during pregnancy one has to gain weight and can not lose weight. I started following her diet plan and lost almont 5 Kg within 3 months. Throughout my whole pregnancy she strictly maintained my weight. That was why I had a pregnancy without any complication. It was she who gave me confidence that I can have normal delivery. It was just out of my imagination that I can try for normal delivery. But her every word motivated me so much that I was mentally prepared for normal delivery by my 3rd trimester with the help of proper diet and exercise. Then my delivery day came. I was in labour throughout the night. She replied to my massage even at 1am during my labour. Again she visited to see me at 5am in the morning. And when delivery time has arrived she again came at 6:30am. Because of her warmth I felt that she was like my mother. Finally with my utter surprise I had a normal delivery and gave birth of a healthy baby boy. Even from the very next day she made me walk and climb stairs as well. Thank you is the small word in front of her efforts. Highly recommend her. One can blindly trust her for a helthy pregnancy and delivery. Much love Dr. Namrata Nagendra.

Some of the observation that we (my wife Jyoti & me Vipin) had about Dr. Namrata Nagendra are as follow:

* Sheer Professional with touch of empathy and compassion.

* Throughout Support during pregnancy till delivery and beyond.

* Doctor was Focused on normal vaginal delivery from the starting, 1st trimester, and we finally achieved it on 6th December 2020. I think Even if complications would've arrived, I'm sure we would've tackled it with Dr. Namrata by our side.

* Followed everything that Doctor advised and it helped us a lot.

* Patience that doctor kept during delivery is appreciated not only by us but within my circle of friends and family.

* Doctor was keen on Normal delivery whereas my wife had given up due to labor pain and was asking for c-section delivery. Doctor had belief on the data i.e heartbeats of baby within womb and blood pressure of my wife, which were monitored throughout the labor and were perfectly normal.

* Doctor's words were very encouraging during this time and my wife was convinced for normal delivery. We delivered a healthy baby boy!! Jyoti is recovering well too!!

* To be very honest, we have not seen any doctor like Dr. Namrata Nagendra.

May be some of the words above are coming out of over joy but we achieved this joy because we followed doctor and doctor followed us at every step. The synchronisation between us was phenomenal which came because of the cognitive empathy that Doctor possess.

A big Thank you to Doctor although we can't thank her enough!!

Highly recommended Doctor!

Dr. Namrata - there are hardly enough words to describe her. *** ** *** **** ***** one can hope to come across in their lives. She is methodical, extremely receptive, she believes in right to information and most importantly she is decisive in all her actions. I had an extremely complicated pregnancy with Sub-chorionic hematoma, High NT score, GD, GHT, Liver issues, pre-term labour etc etc and even more complicated delivery- 24 hours of labour, normal pushing and then rushed to the OT for C-Sec- AND in all this she stood by me like a rock, never for once let me lose hope and always encouraged me to think positively. She was thorough with all the tests she made me go through and superbly confident in the way she meted all the treatments. I was truly lucky to have her as my Obgyn! She did not give me unnecessary medicines like most doctors do these days and rather encouraged me to get my daily nutrients from food. It was always a pleasure to go meet her because of her sweet disposition and the care with which she would listen and answer each one of your questions ( my baby always kicked when she heard her voice!! ). Dr Namrata even helped out in getting all my blood tests done at home ( due to the pandemic ) which as a pregnant patient was very helpful ! I wanted a normal delivery for which she was extremely supportive- she let me go through 24 hours labour as I requested and even got me to push but then she took a decisive call to do a c-sec only after all doors had closed for normal delivery- she did not push me into surgery like most doctors do. She stitched me up so beautifully as well ! I healed in a week and you can barely see the scar !! So if you want an Obgyn who tells you the way it is, go to her - follow her and get the best out of your pregnancy and delivery !

My journey with Dr. Namrata started with pre natal counselling, she was so warm and lovely from my first visit. She explained things so patiently and answered all my questions, ordered a few tests for both my husband and me and even shared her number with us, it was as simple as forwarding my test results to her. She is extremely accessible, just a message away. 3 months later, I messaged her my positive pregnancy test results and she had me come over for a consult and explained everything that I needed to do, to ensure my pregnancy went as smoothly as possible, and thankfully it did. My visits with her were something that I'd really look forward to, she is always so patient and spends as much time as you need with her to answer all your queries, unlike other doctors who are always in a hurry to finish a consult and see the next patient. she's like a friend who listens to all your problems so patiently and cheers you on especially during your pregnancy when your hormones are totally whacked out. My pregnancy went on so smoothly with no hiccups and she ensured that I got my tests done in a timely manner so everything could be kept at bay. Any query or doubt would be answered through a message, so that was super convinient. Dr. Namrata and I were both on the same page when it came to my birthing plan, we both wanted me to have a normal delivery and she made sure that, that's what she delivered. My delivery was as smooth as it could be and my labour pains lasted a mere 5 hours, she managed my pain really well and I can't thank her enough for the beautiful delivery that I had, she delivered my 3.6kg baby boy normally and it was exactly how I wanted it to be. I would recommend Dr. Namrata to everyone looking for an OBGYN, she's extremely warm, easily accessible, no waiting time during an appointment, spends as much time as you need with her, regularly checks up on you through messages, cheers you on during your low downs and mostly she becomes your friend through the end of it all. Thank you so much Dr. Namrata for everything you've done for me, if I ever decide to have my second child, you'll certainly be my only choice.

We are very thankful to Dr Namrata for understanding us as a first time parents and guide us through this beautiful journey of parenthood, We are extremely satisfied and happy with the kind of Consultation and care we got from her. Thank you so much for everything.

She is Exceptionally polite,friendly,soft spoken and very approachable .During our first consultation we had a lot of questions in our mind just like any other first time parents .She politely listened to our silliest queries with patience and advised based on the reports. Initially We did not had any intention of normal delivery (NVD) we just wanted a peaceful pregnancy journey. She understood and communicated to us such a way that we felt assured that someone is always there with us on different stages of our pregnancy and guide us at each and every step to experience a healthy pregnancy ,

We had religiously followed each tiny little instruction received from her . Each Doctor visits felt like a family meet ,Her assurance created a positive vibes around us and complication used to go on its own. We always returned from the doctor clinic with a satisfied happy face . 38 week later we got blessed with a cute little baby girl through Normal delivery(NVD) at Apollo cradle

To all the first time parents /Parents looking for doctors for normal delivery your search ends here .I recommend Dr Namrata from my personal Amazing experience

Topline: I had a normal pregnancy and Dr. Namrata helped me have a vaginal (normal) delivery with minor complications during delivery. Thankful to have her as my obgyn!

We moved to Bangalore during the 6th month of my pregnancy and I was searching for an obgyn. I found Dr. Namrata on Practo and based on positive reviews I decided to have a video consultation. At first I was hesitant and doubtful as I was going to her purely based on online reviews.

That changed over the remaining course of my pregnancy as she was very good in communicating with me and was clearly explaining/reasoning things. She allowed my husband to join during in-person consultations at her clinic (following covid safety protocols). During appointments, she gave us ample time to consult, answered all our queries and never rushed us. She gave me good advice on prenatal diet and exercise routines. The part that I appreciate the most was her availability on WhatsApp and her quick responses (for simple questions I had at random times).

She was straightforward in communicating potential risks at different stages of the pregnancy. She was also receptive to our opinions and reasoned with us for what would be best for me and my baby. I delivered exactly at 40 weeks. I didn't get natural labor pain and I wanted to wait, but she explained clearly the risks of waiting beyond 40 weeks and convinced me that going for induced labor pain was the right thing to do. Her motto for delivery was "Healthy mom, healthy baby".

From my first appointment, I was clear that I wanted to try for a normal delivery and she was supportive of it. During delivery, I had an episiotomy but I also had an uncontrolled tear which led to significant blood loss. I'm thankful for Dr. Namrata and her labor room team to quickly identify the tear, take corrective actions and prevent further complications.

I would highly recommend Dr. Namrata as your obgyn!

We consulted Dr Namrata for the first time back in March 2022 for a pre pregnancy counseling session, based on the rave reviews we read about her. And I must say, that turned out to be the best decision for us. We conceived the very next month of following her advice and since then, she's been nothing less than a guardian angel.In the 12th week, I was diagnosed with a short cervix during our NT scan. She took no chances and immediately proceeded with surgery while most doctors would have wanted to wait and watch. Later in the 6th month, I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes which she managed calmly through diet control and minimal medication. She ensured my weight gain was minimal while making sure that my baby was growing well.Finally, she delivered our healthy baby girl and gave us the biggest gift of our lives.Her clinic is also maintained professionally with minimal wait time even on weekends. She spends quality time with her patients during consultation and answers even the silliest of doubts via WhatsApp anytime.Apart from all this which covers how good she is as a doctor, I thank her for how well she managed my shooting anxiety levels like a friend. She was very confident of doing a normal delivery for me but due to my anxiety, I wanted an elective c section which she tried convincing me against but ultimately understood that I'm too anxious to go through labour.*** *** ***** * *** ***** I recommend her to every woman who wants to meet with a friendly, non judgemental and broad minded doctor.

** ******* ** *** **** ************* * **** **** ** ** **** She is extremely approachable and patient friendly. She makes you feel so comfortable from the very first appointment and knows in and out of what is the exact issue her patient is facing. She doesn’t scare you and gives you a lot of confidence and really cares for you with all her heart . I had hyperemesis gravidarum during my pregnancy and could not function at all during my first trimester. I wanted to terminate my pregnancy as I couldn’t deal with mental and physical stress but she promised me that she would be with me throughout my pregnancy journey and will ensure beautiful delivery of my baby and she did exactly what she promised she would do. I had normal Vaginal delivery and I breezed through it in no time as doctor was there by my side throughout and having her by your side gives a lot of boost and confidence, She is just a call or text away and will respond to you at any hour of the day even on weekends. She is always for normal delivery and does not advocate c section unless any major complications unlike many other gynaecologists. I met a lot of doctors during my HG but was never satisfied with anyone, I guess it was because I had already met the best. I am holding my cute li’l princess today and I 100% owe it to Dr Namratha. I also had PCOS and thought I could never conceive naturally but she was always positive and not once did she discourage me and like she said I got pregnant within 3 months naturally with just few lifestyle changes. She is highly non judgemental and you can trust her with your eyes closed. I will highly recommend everyone to choose Dr Namratha as your gynaecologist , she is beauty with brains! Thank you so much for everything, doctor.
