i went to the doctor, with a lot of anxiety. I had been diagnosed with 2 conditions and both of them required immediate surgery. The doctor heard us patiently explained facts in layman terms and suggested all possible treatment options. The calm demeanor itself is indicative of his experience and patient care. He entertained questions and has addressed all post op queries with utmost importance. Happy to have found doc prabhakar when we needed care
