Dr. Dheeraj Shyam V N

My patient had platelet count only 55k, was critically ill with liver fibrosis and we could not afford any blood loss. Doctor Dheeraj did the biopsy so well that not even a small drop of blood came out. I would definitely recommend him for biopsy.

I am Asha VKR, a professor in an engineering college in Electronics and communication department. I was very hale and healthy. Recently took a selfie and found some swelling on my neck portion. I met few doctor friends in my circle who asked me to go meet a Radiologist for a scan and asked to have some blood tests done to see if my thyroid levels were normal. Later I happened to meet Dr. Dheeraj Shyam, Dr. Madhu Shri and Mr. Jagadeesh at Aster Whitefield.

They asked me to get an FNAC done (which was a painful one for me) to rule out malignancy. I was petrified for FNAC, but Dr. Dheeraj was very kind enough to explain the procedure, wait for the results of FNAC which by God’s grace I was benign also my Thyroid levels were normal. So, I was diagnosed as a patient dealing with multinodular goitre with retrosternal component.

Meanwhile my maternal uncle being a doctor himself advised for the non-surgical procedure i.e., Radio frequency ablation (RFA) I happened to meet several doctors in the last one month almost, I was advised to undergo complete thyroidectomy. Just like every other person on this earth I was also terrified by the name of surgery because it meant complete removal of my thyroid gland which ultimately meant I have to be on medication for rest of my life. I was advised to do FNAC before surgery and that's when I met Dr. Dheerajj Shyam, Dr. Madhushree and Mr. Jagadheesh.

I was accompanied with my husband who was certainly against to any more surgeries on my body. Doctors and their team understood my case, and made us understand the whole issue. They also suggested me that there's another non-surgical procedure i.e., Radio frequency ablation (RFA) and AVM that Dr. Dheeraj and team can do which will help me to preserve my thyroid gland and at the same time rule out the need for a major surgery which would leave a scare on my throat and neck for the rest of my life. Being in the type of profession I belong to I was really worried to even think of a visible scar, post op care and rest at this age of my life.

Dr. Dheeraj was really kind enough to speak to my uncle over phone and explain him about the whole procedure. I asked him silly and must say weird questions ⁉ because when everything seemed shocking and highly risky, it’s quite obvious to think and believe that there's still a hope (meaning of name-ASHA) that I don't need to under-go a major surgery.

I got admitted on Saturday 18th Jan 2025. I met Dr. Ram Prasad who was the anaesthetist in the OT. I am afraid of even a small needle prick, who now has undergone Arteriovenous malformation (AVM) Embolization level 1(sorry too much medical for me). All doctors around me in the OT were constantly checking every moment as to how was I responding during the operation. They asked me to talk every moment they felt there was a need. Sorry if I would have missed out on names those who were around me pacifying by moving their hands on my forehead to calm down.

Thanks to Dr. Madhushri who was so kind enough to take time out to video chat with my daughter to explain as to how I was doing post the procedure. My hand was constantly pressed by Dr. Madhushree ******** *** ********* *** ******* which made me feel that my own sister was with me around at this time of operation. I have heard about patient visits by doctors in many hospitals, but the visits which I had by the team of doc was really awesome, comforting and informative.

Mr. Jagadeesh was around us in handling all the pre op insurance, admission procedures. Just a call away he assisted us with even the CD of CT scan too. I was left with positive and upbeat attitude knowing I was under the eagle’s eye of one of the finest doctor’s team. Thankful to the whole staff and his coordinators. He was always available for us. You have loads to achieve keep up your good work.

Let me not forget to mention Dietician Ms. Chandana and her team who explained slightest of the query which we raised on the diet plan to be followed.

I should also complement the food in charge Mr. Santosh, and his team who served me hot Khichdi which is my favourite of all times. last but not least thanks to the canteen people at Aster Whitefield. Though I’m not a foodie but felt like staying back because of the food that was served.

* **** **** ******** ** ** ******* ** *** ******** ***** *** * After a particular surgery i have been discharged on 8th day based on standard POD procedure like Oral acceptance/ no constipation/ no fever. However due to a major post operative infection that has been found out by one of the Senior Dr in surgical department, when I visited for 3rd day review after my discharge from the hospital. Now let me comeback to Dr Dheeraj department - with a request letter from surgical department for Ultrasound, he tested and said this can’t be determined by Echo and called his assistant Jagdeesh to prepare for CT scan.

Jagdeesh prepared me with water consumption procedure and told us that CT will be done in 4 hrs time.

Very supportive- arranged a temporary bed for resting. He often visited and was checking the status. Then the time came for CT scan and that’s been done- results were forwarded to surgical department. Afterwards surgical team asked to perform a procedure.

Dr Dheeraj by the time went for a meeting and many assisting staff in CT left.

After he returned back he didn’t hesitate to stay back and he performed the procedure along with his assistant Jagdeesh. Such a good and cooperative personality is Dr Dheeraj and his assistant Jagdeesh!

He informed me that some liquid accumulated- now a bag is attached for bringing the liquid out and asked me to keep sending the photos of the liquid accumulation to take further steps.

Through the photos and based on the culture report surgical team asked me to take admission as IP.

After joining they started the IV for that particular bacteria.

Dr Dheeraj visited and checked me, though now the treatment is done by surgical team, Good is it not ?

5 days then they found that the situation was getting under control and discharged me again.

This particular process has taken over the original surgery and I even forgotten what for I went to that hospital initially. Now I’m completely attached to Dr Dheeraj and he/ his assistant were following up about the improvement.

Then the procedure of withdrawal of the tube and bag started- every alternative days 1 cm the tube pulled out - this procedure involves removing of old stitches, local anaesthesia, pulling the tube, fresh stitches. This procedure performed every alternative days. They used to take extreme care and extended all possible support- supportive words, patting me and telling “nothing to worry you will become alright”

Few things I should highlight- one day there was a heavy rush and many cases were going on, our turn was getting delayed, at least 5 to 6 times Dr Dheeraj and his assistant Jagdeesh used to visit us and keep saying “ sorry too many cases kindly bear with us” a very gentle and down to earth behaviour I could say!!

Another incident was after a particular day’s tube pull out we came back home and next day morning a small puss like leak we found and next day went and met Dr Dheeraj, by seeing that he asked me to go immediately to CT room and said “am coming in few minutes..” so positive is it not ??

He came, tested through CT and removed the dressing, and then said we almost pulled the tube, now that tube is touching the muscle and this puss is from the top skin layer and then he suggested that it’s better to remove everything and asked my concurrence, I said that I have 100% faith on him and requested to proceed.

That day was a big relief.

In this entire one month or so procedure- His team gave ultimate support that includes taking care of changing my dress, assisting on my every movement. Not like a medical team but I felt like I have friends standing all along with me in the whole procedure. They stood by me, patted me , explaining each and everything, very supportive, made me to feel like I’m surrounded by my family. What else one can expect more than this ?

Thanks dear Dr Dheeraj- God bless you.

Thanks dear Jagdeesh- God bless you.

For the past one year, I consulted many gynecologists regarding my uterine fibroid condition, and almost everyone recommended myomectomy. However, I was never fully satisfied with it. While searching for alternative options, I came across Dr. Dheeraj’s profile and decided to consult him at least once. That decision truly changed everything. From the very first consultation, Dr. Dheeraj patiently listened to my concerns and explained in detail how UFE could be a much better option for me . His calm, friendly, and compassionate nature made me feel comfortable and confident.His entire team especially Mr Jagdish was really responsive and supportive during the whole process. From pre-procedure to post-procedure,I felt well supported and cared for. Thanks to his expertise and empathetic approach.

I am extremely grateful to Dr. Dheeraj and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for safe, effective, and patient-centric treatment for fibroids.

My Nephew of 7 year old in Manipur has been complaining of pain in his hip joint, and worsening at night. We took him to few doctors there and even after 2 months it is not improving instead he started limping and stopped playing due to the pain. So we got him to Bangalore and took him to Aster hospital and with the MRI scan, it was diagnosed as Osteoid Osteoma. And we were Referred to Doctor Dheeraj Shyam, the interventional radiologist. We met the doctor and he and his team explained the treatment procedure called RFA, radio frequencyablation, however the treatment cost was something we were not comfortable and we looked around the hospital in Bangalore who perform the same treatment. However we dont find any other more reliable and we met again the doctor, he promised that the cost is something he can looked for support to reduce and the most heart warming for us was his approachable nature, detail explanation and the interest he took in the treatment procedure. And we decided to go ahead with the treatment. The entire team Doctor

Dheeraj, Dr. Madhushree & Bro.Jagdish were very attentive and approachable through out the procedure and once the procedure was over, again doctor took us to show in the screen what all they did and we had a huge confidence that our boy would be alright by the Grace of God. And to our surprised our boys stopped complaining the old pain the next morning onwards. *** **** * ******** ****** ******* *** **** * ******** ***** **** **** ****** We highly recommend Dr. Dheeraj Shyam for anyone who has osteoid osteoma and for any Radiofrequency ablation treatment . ** ** *** **** ** *****

Dr Dheeraj listened to my concerns very patiently and explained in detail about the complete UFE procedure. He is very calm, friendly and compassion. His entire team especially Mr Jagadeesh supportive and showed great care throughout my stay. I had a smooth experience both pre and post procedure. Thanks to Dr Dheeraj and his entire team

Review for Dr.Dheeraj Shyam and Team (Interventional Radiology @ Aster Whitefield)

We came across Dr. Dheeraj Shyam while searching for a highly experienced Interventional Radiologist in Bangalore for my brother, who resides in Odisha and is undergoing dialysis treatment. He had developed vein clots near his heart and neck, which had led to severe swelling in his body. Upon consulting with doctors in Odisha, we were informed that his case was extremely critical and that performing the procedure would be life-threatening.

However, our experience changed entirely when we consulted Dr. Dheeraj Shyam. After thoroughly reviewing my brother’s medical reports, he assured us with confidence that the procedure could be performed successfully without complications. His professionalism and calm behaviour immediately put us at ease.The procedure was successfully completed, and to our immense relief, my brother began showing visible signs of improvement within just 2–3 days. The swelling reduced significantly, and his overall condition started stabilising. It was a dramatic and heartening change that brought immense relief to our entire family.

Throughout the hospital stay, Dr.Dheeraj Shyam and his team made regular rounds, closely monitoring my brother's recovery. They were always available to address our concerns, no matter how small, and treated us with patience, respect, and genuine care. Their consistent support made a very difficult time much more bearable.I would also like to extend our heartfelt thanks to two individuals who stood out for their compassion and cooperation—Jagdish and Dr. Madhushree. They were always approachable, ensured clear communication, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was in place.In a situation where hope was dwindling and options seemed limited, Dr. Dheeraj Shyam and his team gave us a new sense of confidence and delivered real results. We are forever grateful for their medical expertise, professionalism, and human touch.It’s rare to come across a medical team that not only excels clinically but also cares deeply for their patients and their families. This experience has left a lasting impression on us, and we wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Dheeraj Shyam to anyone in need of advanced interventional radiology care.

I met dr. Dheeraj Shyam regarding thyroid nodule. He was patient in understanding the symptoms and gave a very informative advice which helped us in making an educated choice of going for thyroid ablation treatment. Dr. Dheeraj is extremely friendly and his whole team is very approachable.

I recently underwent Uterine Fibroid Embolization(UAE/UFE) procedure performed by Dr.Dheeraj Shyam in Aster Whitefield. I am extremely grateful for the care and professionalism shown throughout the entire process. From the initial consultation to the post-operative follow-ups, Dr.Dheeraj and Dr.Madhushree were professional, compassionate, and highly skilled.

They took the time to explain the procedure in detail multiple times, answered all my questions patiently, and made me feel confident and reassured throughout the entire process. The surgery went smoothly, and I have recovered well, thanks in large part to Dr. Dheeraj and Dr.Madhushree's expertise and the excellent care provided by their team.

After the surgery, I was a bit anxious and initially wanted to extend my stay in the hospital. However, Dr.Dheeraj took the time to assess my condition carefully and gave me the confidence and reassurance that I was healing well and ready to continue recovery at home. That decision turned out to be exactly right, and I have recovered smoothly ever since.

I highly recommend Dr.Dheeraj to anyone in need of UAE/UFE procedure. His dedication to patient well-being and medical excellence truly stands out.

A special thanks to Mr.Jagadeesh, who was always in contact with me to make the process smooth. He helped me with the appointments, insurance, admission, pre-surgery tests, and discharge process, too. He always ensured that I was calm pre and post-surgery, too.

Thank you, Dr.Dheeraj, Dr.Madhushree, and team for your support and excellent care!
