Feedback for Dr. K M Prasanna Kumar
Happy with: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issue
The doctor is **** * Wise. He has huge experience in treatment of Thyroid. Unlike most other doctors, instead of scribbling their prescription on paper, all the diagnosis & medicine are neatly printed on a paper.

Happy with: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfaction
Doctor is very clear in what he is advising. Sometimes the wait time tests our patience. But treatment is work the wait. He does not advice unnecessary medication. He just treats you right!
Visited For Diabetes
Very unprofessional approach. Doc was busy with some personal people and we kept on waiting for more than half an hour. Somehow he started seeing my father and without checking him he suggested for insulin. And he wrote for many tests and asked for reports immediately. He wrote 800 fee instead of 750. Overall I am not happy.
Visited For Hyperthyroidism
I had a gynaecomastia surgery. Even after surgery I had a growth for which my surgeon suggested hormones checkup from a good endocrinologist.
