The doctor is very down to earth person.
Visited for treatment for my mother - senior citizen, he did attend to her very patiently (every visit), *** * **** **** ** *** ******** also advised to take consultation from other specialists (only when required). Prescribes only the necessary medicines. Asks only for necessary tests, very patient friendly.
Since for every patient he attends in detail & patiently, there will be waiting, but reasonably allocated time slots, so not too much waiting.
Being to him for treatment from one & half years regularly, seen improvement from initial visits itself. God's grace - gradually medication is being reduced.
Doctor has a very good judgement - prescribes medicines in a very balanced manner.
Fully satisfied with his services.

** ** *** **** ****** * * **** **** **** his diagnosis was spot on, I consulted him after seeing more than 6 doctors, he is very gentle, humble and caring doctor.
After meeting him, I realized that there are still few very good and talented people left in this world who care about the well being of the patients more than anything else.
I would also like to thanks his assistant Sujata who was very patient in organising my appointment and procedure with the doctor.
Also dr Sudheer who gave me some very good massaging tips.
******* ** ** ********** ***** ** ** ***, I would very highly recommend him.
May God bless him always, and give him the strength to carry on the amazing service.

I was referred to Dr.Dharmanand by my doctor from Delhi when we shifted to Bangalore. On meeting him, I found that he was very friendly and explained everything in detail (as much as I could understand). I was on steroids but gradually under his treatment, I am off steroids for more than 2+ years now. I have to visit him every 6 months regularly and I can talk to him about any other problem in the body other than my auto immune disorder and he advises accordingly. All in all, he is a very good doctor and I would recommend him to everyone.
