It took me more than an hour to meet the doctor but once I met him I felt it was worth it. He is very friendly, gives enough time to make you understand the problem. I Never saw such big doctors being so grounded and I believe he is the best neuro and spine surgeon in Aster CMI, or maybe in Bangalore.

Very friendly 👭👫👬atmosphere. Did not feel like being in a clinic. Even some co - patients were SMILING!! Obviously they were confident of the treatment by the doctors.
When ushered into the doctors room, a very smiling doctor greeted us. He enquired about our family etc . Made me at ease before asking questions about ailments.
He then took time to explain to me about the real problem and suggested some Sitting and standing posture corrections before prescribing minor medications and physiotherapy.
A fortnight later I was perfectly ok and felt very young!!
When I went to thank the doctor, again the same smile!
Charges were reasonable.
**** ****** ** remove fear of hospitals from the patient's mind..
OVERALL A NICE EXPERIENCE! THANK YOU DOCTOR.

I got treated by Dr Akshay during lockdown for severe back pain and leg pain. I initially did video consultation and then visited him for a consultation in clinic after i was reassured that they were taking all precautions. I was afraid to go to hospital but was happy to see him in his clinic. He saw my MRI and told i have a small disc prolapse and treated with medicines. I was afraid i might need surgery but I improved with rest and exercises and lifestyle modification. I am very happy now and special thanks to Dr Akshay for taking time to see me during this pandemic and treating me well.
