Dr Harish NS is a godsend to me & my family. We got to know him through word of mouth. It was Tuesday evening, when the Doctor examined all the reports of my mother and advised to get her admitted at the earliest since her Gallbladder stone had gotten worse. It was critical to get it removed as it might rupture other organs. My mom was chronic to diabetic and was an antidepressant. Considering all these, it was difficult to accept for a surgery. Dr Harish made us feel so comfortable and made the process seamless. He took the initiative of finding a hospital especially a non-covid ones and helped with one of the best anaesthesiologists. On Thursday evening, my mom had a successful laparoscopic surgery and came out of the OT with a smile on her face. What stands out about Dr Harish is his diligent attitude towards his work. He is a powerful Surgeon who understands the complexity of his patients and goes out of his way to take care of them. He works with you to address health concerns, rather than just telling you what to do. He is an excellent human being with a rare combination of professional and personal abilities and a compassionate leader. Thanks for the unconditional care.

Dr Harish is friendly, he explained the condition and procedure well before. He did not push me for surgery right away but asked to wait for symptoms which is rare these days. He is calm about answering questions. I would definitely recommend him. Thank you!
