I am very pleased with the detailed diagnosis provided by Dr Balamurali. I visited him for problems related to my wrist joint. He was very methodical and took plenty of time to explain every detail related to my Injury. He used a model of a knee joint to explain my condition, showed me the specific problematic regions in the MRI and explained what they meant. He was very friendly and easy to talk to. All my questions were answered at length and with great care. I came out of his clinic with complete knowledge of my injury and the various treatment options available. I feel very confident that I have all the information i need to take the right course of action. I would definitely recommend him to my family and friends.

* ** *** ********** *** *** ******* ** ** ********* **** *** ********* ** * ****** *** ***** ******** ** ****** *** ******* *** ****** ** *** ******** Second he tells different opinions in different sittings. *** *** *** ***** **** * ******* Third he told us that he doesn't have time to explain what he is going to do as part of treatment and in fact used a sentence " why should I tell you my secret and you are not medical students ". Any patient has right to understand the treatment and its pros and cons. Fourth he said that patients kill his hours. Mr. Krishnan is completely unprofessional, impatient, two faced doctor. He is not trust worthy and said this line - "Pain after or before procedure is not my problem, I just do surgery ". Hope this helps people who go to him with all the hope and pay hefty amount for his consultation ***** ** ***** *** ** ******* *** ** **** ** **** ***** ** ****** ******** ***** ******** ** ***** As patients you require solution and that was not at all given by doctor.
