Visited Dr, complaining of chest pain, the Dr said in next one minute that I need to do, tmt, echo, ECG , vit b12, vit d etc. * **** ** ****** ****** ** *** *** ****** ** ******** *** ******* *****. That being the case I think every patient should do this tests and only then visit him. Also he said he won't see reports from any other centre but their hospital only. **** ** **** *** ***** ******* ***** ***** ***** *** *************** * ***** ***** ** ** * *********** ** *** ** ********** *** ******* ******** ** ***
I did all tests but didn't see him with reports, but went to another doctor.
Went to take advice and concent for Dental implant ater by pass surgery as required by a dentist.
Instead of advice, he wanted me to undergo TMT , Echo etc by paying Rs.3000. He said without these tests he can't advice or do anything.
He said if I want I can go and claim My Rs 500 paid to Practo but within minutes I received his bill and Practo says no refund is possible.
He asked me why did I undergo CABG?
Nobody undergoes heart by pass surgery for fun?
* ***** ********* ******** ***** **** **** ** ******* *** *****
From the beginning he was telling me that he does not want to argue. I went for advice not for argument.
Just wasted money and time.

One rarely see a doctor so grounded and hears paitently . The doctor really digs in to know the root cause . I was feverish due to food allergy
Amazingly he did know my other health issue without letting him know and he gave medicine accordingly.the doctor will on precribe for test if only required. I would definitely recommend him

This hospital staff and doctor does not repects patient time. I got an appointment at 12 o clock. Waited for an hour and after multiple time asking with reception they asked me to come in evening. If you are a doc you should respect others time and patient condition.
Visited For Type 1 Diabetes Treatment
Hoped for better: Wait time
Had scheduled appointment at 8 AM as it was showing free on practo,, when I went to clinic it was closed and called the number which was on board, I think he was doctor who spoke and asked me to come after 9, so I scheduled appointment on practo at 9.15, I was waiting for doctor for 5 mins, then they told to come after 10. If they do not respect others time how to trust.

I first visited doctor on Saturday morning and then same day evening for check up. He ask me come next day morning (Sunday) and seemed surprised when I visited him next day. Called me on Monday at 10, but when I reached he is out for round (to some hospital). if you can't attend patient, don't call him.
While the doctor seemed ok, the clinic was rather dusty and dirty. The nurse took my blood sample in an unhygienic, cluttered room, and at one point I saw the needle touch the dusty table. I should have left before I took the test itself but I just went along with it because I was exhausted. Also visited the washroom to get a urine sample and it was horrible. Clinics need to be clean and hygienic and this is not done. The blood tests also seemed more expensive than other places. I complained to the doctor later about the unhygienic conditions of the room and toilet, and he said he would look into it. I hope they do for the sake of their patients.
