Went to see Dr for second opinion, to understand the seriousness of my mothers’ condition (she has moderate MR for few years now)… he saw previous reports and asked questions to understand my mom’s condition, then suggested to do echo want to understand the seriousness… after echo he comforted my mother that the condition is not that serious and she need not worry much… suggested her to do walking and continue the medication… my mother felt quite relieved after the visit… Dr was very friendly, the fact that he conversed in Kannada with mom also helped…
We visited the hospital and it was for my father. He had undergone knee replacement surgery. *** ****** *** ***** Surgery happened in July and follow up consultation was once in 2 or 3 months. My father had diabetes and BP, medicines were prescribed, physio was also done. There was no much waiting time in the hospital. It will take 5-10 minutes. We need to visit again doctor. My father is able to see improvements and he is able to walk now. I am satisfied with the treatment given. I can recommend the doctor to my family or friends.
