However Dr Ajay Shetty is super master of his trade which we all are aware , the most important quality which differentiate him from other doctors are his humanity and smiling face to all of his patients.
He is great at diagnosis.
He is great at suggesting right medications.
He explains issues/repercussions with multiple options of treatments.
He is well organized.
My Dad (K Divakara Menon- 83 Years) shifted from Kerala to Bangalore in a very bad shape,Entrusted him to Dr Ajay - he diagnosed the problem in our first visit itself, still he suggested to go through all respective tests to confirm the same.
Instead of jumping to tough treatments, keeping his age in mind- he suggested appropriate treatment and he is keeping well after 1 month.
Thank you soo much Doctor.
Visited For Transurethral Resection of the Prostate (TURP)

Consulted Dr. Ajay Shetty for my father aged 65 years for prostate enlargement issues and he underwent TURP surgery for the same on 25-Mar-2019 . Prior to that consulted Doctor as OPD patient on two occasions 2-Mar and 9-Mar. Before consulting Dr. Shetty I had consulted other doctors as well but the kind of surety I got after meeting him gave me the confidence to go ahead with the procedure. Surgery was done without any difficulty and was successful at Sakra Hospital.
Throughout he has been a source of support, explaining the issue and procedure in sufficient detail. Even switching to Hindi for my father when he found him more comfortable in Hindi.
Would also like to thank his team and specially Praveen who was our contact point for planning the surgery and available throughout.
Many thanks and will definitely highly recommend doctor Dr. Shetty !
Visited For Urinary Tract Infection (UTI)
Happy with: Explanation of the health issue
I had met Dr Shetty for a 2nd opinion on the diagnosis , treatment and next steps given by another Hospital . I was very worried by their prognosis and expensive battery of additional tests that had prescribed.
After a detailed examination of my case and reports, Dr. Shetty was able to point out an important test that had been omitted by the other Hospital. He also used his vast experience to quickly diagnose the cause of my illness and recommended appropriate medication.
I was very relieved after my meeting with the doctor and very happy with the explanations.

** ******** ********* ********** *** **** ** ****** He showed no interest in understanding my problem, nor told me what I can do to fix it. This advice was: Deal with it. Which is certainly not what I expect when I consult a specialist. And then ends up with, "don't bug me with more questions." I'm honestly surprised to experience this from a Manipal doctor. Very unpleasant experience and I don't recommend him at all if you're interested in finding a solution.
