Our experience has been good..we are consulting him for our son (since his birth) who is now 1 year old..he is also guiding about diet for the child..my son has fallen sick two to three times in recent past..on one occasion, when he was suffering with cough, cold and fever, we took him to Dr Nilesh, who prescribed treatment as per viral infections ( prescribed nebulisation with saline) and did not prescribe any antibiotics ..our son got well in 3-4 days..
However, next time he showed similar symptoms and we took him to Dr Nilesh, who did not prescribe antibiotics and continued with the same treatment..but it turned out to be bacterial infection and my son condition worsened..he started wheezing..since we could not get appointment again for Dr Nilesh, we took him to cloud nine Whitefield.. finally with doses of antibiotics and nebulisation with medicines, he was cured..but it took 6-7 days to cure ************ barring this our experience with him has been satisfactory..
Getting appointment is difficult at times, even though we keep requesting cloud nine staffs, they did not allow us to consult him through walk in..
I feel that hospital should try to accommodate walk in cases in case of emergency and allow to consult Mr Nilesh without prior appointment..

We are consulting Dr. Nilesh for my son since his birth. I am having great experience with the him & the way he treats the babies. It gives a booster for mothers to listen to his way of assessing babies & monitoring their progress. Some of the unknown facts about babies eating pattern & diet was explained very clearly.He is very soft spoken, talks to the point and catches what should be the correct stage of child's development. Ensures baby is growing at right pace. Tells Do's and dont's for future. He believes in less medication and I prefer him over any other doctor.

He is the doctor to whom I consult for my one yr old son since his birth.
Everything is fine about him, no doubt about it but frankly not on a couple of aspect out of my experience.
He mostly rushes while consulting during his busy schedule in an intension to move to next. He examine my kid well but I wish he should also do it based on the patient's previos records/file until I remind him on the problems my kid had during his birth.
Apart from that he is so friendly and good at his experience with diagnosis. He advises me well on dos and don't s that helps to grow my kid well. Thanks much to the doctor.

Visited For Cough In Children

We waited for 45 mins to see Dr Nilesh for my sons cough, cold, weight gain & allergy problems. We were called in and he examined the childs cough and asked questions on symptoms. After that, when we were about to tell him the next problem the child was facing when he interupted and called the next patient. But I insisted that my child has some rash. So, he suddenly got impatient and rudely replied that we should have told this before. He did not even examine my child and turned the other way without acknowledging.
Most of the time, he will only talk and not let patient describe the complaints. Infact in name of friendliness, ** **** * *** ********* ** * *** ******* ********* **** ***** * ***** *** **** *** ** * ***** ******** *** ********* ****** ****** ******* *** ******** *********

Dr. Nilesh is very rude and always in hurry , doesn't listen to our concerns. He was in hurry to move on to next patient. We travelled 1hr, waited 1hr, paid 850, appointment finished in 2 mins. He doesn't spare 2 mins more listening to your concerns. We took our 6year old for cold and cough, after that we wanted to discuss about other concerns we had related to some skin allergies. Doctor got irritated and told you should explain everything one shot, I can't spare time checking him again and again. I have other patients to see. Later he checked and said it is nothing we are done. My son was still sitting on the bed he said get him down, take your file and leave. ******** ********* I wouldn't recommend him to anyone. I had a huge respect for cloudnine and the way they handle kids. We were in shock to see how unfriendly this doctor was. To add on that doctor gave a candy to sick kid and outside in the waiting they are distributing complimentary canned juices. * *** ******* ** *** ******** ************************ **** ******* my 6 year old is saying Doctor only gave chocolate, hospital only distributing packaged juice. ***** ***** ** ** ******** *** ***** *** ***** ** ** ********* **** ******* ****** ******* ** ****** ******* ******* ****** *** ****** ****** ** *** ********* We still hold Hospitals and Doctors with high regard, kids believe whatever you say is true please educate children about healthy eating* ****** **** ************ **** *****

My son who is 2 yrs old, he had rashes on his face. Dr Nilesh prescribed good cream (but he never recommended any medicines for that) and Now his rashes are almost gone.
Infact he always recommends light medicines to my son so that his immunity develops... We trust him so much, that we never give any medicine (recommended by any doc) to my son without discussing with Doc Nilesh.
Dr.Nilesh is a professional. He is very good with kids which generally helps during examination. Usually addresses the issues very precisely and does a thorough check up and figures out the root cause and also gives an appropriate solutions to the same. Very sweet and humble at approach. I would recommend all parents to consult him.

I would like to thanks Dr NIlesh Rao . We had visited there as my daughter was having high fever and she is only 1 year old . The way he treated and the way he has consulted us was a stress relief . Have met a genuine Dr in Banaglore after ages , the medicines given by the Dr did not cost us more than 50 rs Yes really shocked to hear that myself . But the medicines did wonder and all looks good with my daughters health.
