Dr. Naveen Chandra G S

A year ago I felt I got some cramps in my lower back...I was a thorough shuttle player then. Working in a multinational company I developed this habit which I thought can help me recover back from my prediabetic state was one of the push reasons for my heart attack. It all started on a weekend with fever, followed by cramp and then an attack two days followed by it. I drove myself to Columbia Asia hospital only to faint at the reception. I was not having my heartbeat for a few minutes declared as an emergency. It was Dr Naveen Chandra who came as a God to rescue. It's all thanks to Dr Naveen n his team in emergency who got me back with a shock revival. War was still not over. I was suggested angiogram with a block thereby within a few minutes he tried clear the block by bursting bubbles but seems to be that I started sinking but Dr Naveen got back to my family explained them patiently on what is angioplasty and my family took a call and Dr Naveen proceeded with the angioplasty. It was an unplanned angiogram and angioplasty. Which Dr Naveen completed in a few hours. He not only helped my wife understand the consequences but also suggested how to proceed. My wife is still thankful that he was so much patient with every single question she asked. I was critical even after the surgery as I had a nasal bleed as I was highly sensitive to medicines. Any doctor would try experimenting with different medicines but Dr Naveen tried to understand my body's requirements. Introduced medicines carefully by checking what my body is accepting and not. My wife and my friends showered Dr Naveen with n number of questions which he answered with utmost patience and care before moving me out of icu. I was discharged after 2 weeks. Even when I had fever. Dr Naveen was reachable with a single ring even at 11 in the night. So much dedication and patience. He motivates you to live a better life. Explains you every single thing about your issue. Tells you what to do, how to eat, how to work out, doesn't make you swallow unnecessary tablets. I was on 12 tablets after operation and now I'm on 2. He treated me in emergency and now I'm visiting him frequent. He is my family doctor. I'm living a better life all coz of Dr Naveen. So much thankful to him from the bottom of my heart for giving me a new life. Thanks is so much less to say. *** **** ************ * **** **** ***** Young, intelligent, smart, quick, humble and always approachable with a smile. I totally suggest everyone to reach him in case of anything with respect to heart problems.

Dr Naveen Chandra is very ************* skillfull and down to earth doctor

I visited doctor for my dad’s coronary angioplasty surgery in 2021 and he gave the right guidance about the situation and correct treatment with coronary angioplasty

Post that we were in regular follow up with the doctor over more than two years now and my dad is completely fit and fine with the medication and guidance suggested by doctor

The best of doctor is he is very down to earth person and even provide guidance on phone based upon his availability… Telephonic guidance its a need of an hour as it saves a-lot of time of working professionals and I guess a very few doctors provide such support

Even when we visit clinics for follow up he is always on his toes helping the patient around… Based upon past experiences usually doctors are sitting in his cabin and giving treatments to patient and usually patient is mobilised around for lab test, ecg test, echo and many other test during which ultimately patient suffers lot but with Dr Naveen Chandra many times I have observed he himself collect reports or perform echo or blood pressure check so that patients are not much suffered which I personally feel is very great and helpful gesture from doctor

Overall I bless to have Dr. Naveen Chandra because of him my dad is living healthy life now

I visited Dr.Naveen Chandra for my 76 year old mother on Dec 2019 when she had difficulty walking even a few steps. She was 100kgs and there was edema in both legs. The doctor did an Echo and diagnosed severe PASP along with other age related heart problems and immediately put her on higher dose of diuretics. He did not rush us into admission. Although we were a new patient, the doctor was reachable on phone for clarification and on whatsapp thereafter to keep a close tab on blood work to adjust dosages. Today, my mother has shed all that excess fluid and is on a steady dose of medicines. Her quality of life has improved, thanks to Dr.Naveen Chandra.

I very strongly recommend Dr Naveen Chandra. His calming demenaour immediately put my mother at ease. He genuinely listened to everything that my mother had to say and did not belittle any of her complaints. While the doctor kept it real to me and my brother about my mother’s condition, that she cannot take in surgical interventions, he did not give up on her. He reassured my mother that she will get better with medicines.

My mother had twice been hospitalized in a prominent hospital and all I remember is doctors would often go ‘she has too many problems’, and a sympathetic hollow gaze. We felt very helpless. Contrast this to meeting Dr. Naveen who was reassuring with the patient, realistic with us and spot-on with the treatment as the results show.

Hats off to such compassionate and equally competent doctors in these times.

Dr.Naveen sir is the best Interventional Cardiologist by profession and best human by nature. His approach in diagnosing the reported health issue and providing required treatment is much appreciated.

Treats the patient like a family and guides the family members like an elder brother.

My mom is 69 yrs old and has been consulting him since June 2022. His best diagnosis skills and experience saved my mother from fatal situations. My mom and our whole family sincerely thank him for his expert medical services.

He is an asset to the Hospital/Organisation and all his patients.

Dr Naveen Sir- Wish you long life and loads of success in all your future endeavours 🙏

Once again - we are obliged to your continuous guidance given and treatment provided to our mom.

Since 2016, we have been seeing Dr. Naveen Chandra. After a heart attack, my mother had a stent placed in Columbia Asia. My mom experienced a few health issues for about a whole year. Dr. Naveen Chandra was giving the appropriate drugs and a few other necessary tests as soon as we met him. In Interventional cardiology, he is best.

He refuses to prescribe unnecessary tests or medications that is his best quality. An extremely grounded individual who never fails to smile. After moving to Chennai, my mother struggled to adjust to her new physician. Thus, she returned to Bangalore Aster (Whitefield), where Dr. Naveen Chandra currently practices. Generally upbeat individual who is undoubtedly well-liked by many patients because of his professionalism and modesty.

Always answer's our call or on whatsapp.

This was about a year back, my father started complaining of severe chest pain while walking. Someone from our apartment had suggested Dr Naveen Chandra, so we went to consult him. He suggested for angiogram and after the angiogram he explained to us the situation of my father. My father had major blockages in all the arteries and only option was bypass with endarterectomy. With extreme patience and empathy he addressed our concerns and explained risks involved. We couldn't decide immediately to go for surgery because of all the risks. My father had to go through lot of other health complications due to this. Finally we went for bypass surgery a couple of months back and my father is doing fine now. Throughout the struggle Dr Naveen Chandra stood with us, he would respond to the messages and calls and suggest right medications and always was there to guide us and help us. He is a very competent and empathetic doctor. Really thank him for all the support he had given us medically and for the guidance.

My Father and I had experienced and continue to have a wonderful experience with DR Naveen Chandra maybe for the last 3-4 years @ Manipal Hospital(erstwhile Columbia Asia Varthur Road )

Dr Naveens High level of competency, diagnostics, compassion , his eye for details and his High Medical standards have immensely helped my father in helping to lead a better quality of life in spite of his deteriorating heart condition.

Dr. Naveen’s efforts in diagnosing the problem and treatment is second to none to the best of my past experience with other Doctors .

As a Son I trust Dr Chandra 100% wholeheartedly for taking such good medical care of my father ( aged-75) and would highly recommend him to everyone who is looking for a highly competent/Compassionate cardiologist in Bangalore.

I sincerely thank Manipal Hospital(erstwhile Columbia Asia ) for having such great doctors like Dr Naveen in their elite panel .My never ending trust and belief continue to live because of such great doctors .

"Service begins with a Smile" is the name I would like to coin this Doctor. I have seen many doctors in the past but *** ****** ** ******* *** **** ***** Cant forget when I rushed my mom to the hospital @ the wee hours on 7th July 2017 and I was lucky to have Dr.Naveen Chandra as the Emergency Doctor who was resting at home that time. He rushed to attend my mom immediately and attended to her till she was stabilized after 3 hours. His constant update on the patient with oceans of patience, *** ********* ** *** ********** his soft n gentle communication skills especially during the panic times is noteworthy.

I would like to keep it on records that "My Mom is having her 2nd Life because of Dr Naveen Chandra" as he took a crucial call for an operation which other doctors (different hospital) did not recommend has increased the longevity of my mothers life.

It's almost 8 months+ my mother has been discharged from the hospital but Dr.Naveen Chandra is in constant touch to understand n keep track on my mother's health. Dr. Naveen Chandra is an asset to Columbia Asia and we all need more Doctors like him to save our loved ones.

I cant thank him enough...............

Dr. Naveen Chandra is himself a brand that it becomes needless to explain our experience. However, for greater good of the public it's important that we share our experience.

My father had an acute myocardial infarction few days back which we were not aware about. The day I met him after few days I noticed he had breathing issues. When we rushed him to Columbia hospital doctors informed us of his condition and that they cannot assure us anything.

Thanks to Dr. Naveen's expertise that my father recovered so fast. Most of the expert doctors were of the opinion that open heart surgery is the only go for my father. But Dr. Naveen turned this major surgery down, he handled the situation with angioplasty and this gave my father a speedy recovery and a normal life now. Through the entire period he was so comforting with us. His humbleness, kind attitude, empathy and hard work has made us indebted to him forever.

No matter how late it is in night, any issue Dr. Naveen is available at the next available moment making us aware of the condition and the next step. I cannot expect more. Even now when we meet him for regular check up, he meet us in the same way. Any emergency no matter what time it is on the clock he replies our call, messages. Always reachable.

We are fortunate to have a doctor like him. We wish him all success and good fortune in his life.

My mother was suffering from Palpitations near throat followed by weakness. Upon consulting a general physician, we were asked to see a Cardiologist. Then we consulted Dr.Naveen Chandra. During first visit itself, he suspected it to be a condition of Arrhythmia (mostly SVT condition), if at all the palpitations are because of something related to heart malfunctioning. He did not rush us to go for Surgical treatment. He first wanted to see if medication works. Medication did no work. In my mother's case, the palpitations lasted for about only a minute. As a result, non-surgical diagnosis (such as ECG/Echo-cardiogram/Holter monitoring) did not work. Doctor then suggested to use a portable Oximeter to see if pulse rate goes high during palpitations. As guessed by him, we observed very high pulse rate confirming that the problem is related to heart. So we were then advised to go for Ablation treatment (EP Studies). This is basically done to do both diagnosis (which type of Arrhythmia) and treatment. Thanks to Dr.Naveen Chandra, now my mother is free from the problem and is very healthy.

Dr.Naveen Chandra is very friendly and caring. He explains the problem very patiently and why he is opting for that particular treatment/medication. He is very patient in answering all the queries that we might have about the procedures involved. He is also available on phone for his patients. I highly recommend him for heart related ailments. Thank you doctor once again. Namaste.
