** ********* ****** *** interacts very well with the patient. I am extremely grateful to the Almighty for guiding me Dr.Nainan.

I strongly recommend those who are suffering from enlarged prostrate to take the professional treatment from Dr.Nainan Thomas.

Hoped for better:Â Wait time
Dear all.
I checked his reveiews and consultation fee from practo.com and booked an appoinment on october month. I explained him my problems and doctor prescribed me a medicine. The hospital charged from me Rs. 600 as consulation fee. Which in practo fee is rs.300. And then the doctor prescribed medicine is not available in any top to small pharamacy.. When i called doctor mobile and shared my situation. Doctor asked me to siddhanth pharmacy near by his clinic. Where i went next day. The pharmacy employee says this medicines were stopped selling by distributors... My complete time and money was wastes..
Visited For Prostate Laser Surgery
Based on nice feedback on practo, I fixed appointment with this doc by
calling over phone.. He arrived late. I was baffled by his utter unprofessional behaviour . he was angry to the core and throwing all my medical files onto me. He said"I amnot watching TV at home , why did you follow up ".
He said he was busy else where. We understand doctors are busy with patients and shuttling around hospitals.but communication is important.he did not prefer appointment mechanism on practo. My only mistake was to do a follow up when he is late to hospital. Then all this bitter experience.heart patients, let's keep yourself away from such incidents. One might be be good at his profession. Also, has to deal nicely with situations. I don't recommend him though I respect all other patients nice experience with him in the past. But lotus responded positively.

Hoped for better:Â Doctor friendlinessTreatment satisfaction
I visited doctor Thomas for urinary infection. first day he suggested a lot of tests. including blood test to make sure there was no blood in urine. after I got the tests done and went to see him he was quite rude to me. he told me I am imagining things and there is no blood in urine.i reminded him that it was he who suggested him the test. after that the rest of the conversation was pretty unpleasant with him. I wouldn't recommend him *** ******* *******

Dr. Ninan does have magical healing hands. He never rushes to conclusion but waits, analyzes and decides. Also, these days we do not find doctors explaining the cause, result and the cure to the patients or their family but Dr. Ninan does follow all of these.

Im very happy and satisfied with Dr.Ninan, my husband was admitted a few days back with kidney stones, he explained everything in depth and gave us the liberty to clear our doubts anytime. He is well experienced and completely dedicated to his work. His utmost concern is our comfort. I would highly recommend this doctor in the urology department
Visited For Transurethral Resection of the Prostate (TURP)
The doctor is really experienced. I took my father for TURP there. The day we approached the doctor he just reviewed the old reports and suggested for operating the prostate. We knew the size of the prostate was big and the suggestion was quite correct. My father went through few test and took the surgery. I am very thankful to doctor Ninan Thomas. He was really nice and took care of the surgery nicely. I am also thankful to the SDA medical center's nursing team. They were very much caring.
He's a very attentive and pragmatic doctor who focuses on careful diagnosis and one-to-one patient interaction. He's one among those increasingly rare tribe of physicians who doesn't just prescribe medicines and procedures based on a battery of tests and lab reports to make the 'client' feel that they've been treated. He explains his diagnosis rationally, doesn't prescribe medicines needlessly (to my knowledge) and also personally follows up with you; at least that's been my experience. Wonderful urologist who I felt very comfortable with consulting.
