Dr. Prashanth was referred by our local home town doctor for treatment related to neurology for my father. We had to travel 7 hours to meet Dr at Apollo Hospitals,sheshadripuram.
Prashanth is not just a doctor but with real zeal to help and cure patients. After meeting prashanth, we were briefed about the issue, and he gave us analysis and how he wanted to treat step by step. He also motivated and gave us a positive feedback which relaxed my worried parents.
His approach of analysis and way of treatment, patience towards patients is appreciable. Thanks to Prashanth for all the support.
Thanks and Regards,

Consultation experience was good with the doctor visited for some neurological issue, I am happy with the doctor's explanation, the doctor was very good in behaviour he is so friendly. Definitely, I'll recommend the doctor to my friends and family. This is the first time I am consulting this doctor, hospital facilities we have only utilized the OPD consultation, waiting time was about to 30 to 45 minutes after taking the appointment also we need to wait there it happens. Staff and nursing were very cordial and very helpful.

The table tilt test which is done in Vikram hospital is costly which costs you 5k and the reports are not clear.

I visited and checked up all thing, the experience was very good with the doctor. Treatment is like not satisfied. Once like he is saying as there is no solution for your diseases. At least he has to give a suggestion. He didn''t say anything he just said your nerves are blocked but there is a solution he did not give any suggestion. He did all every test have done still my fingers are numbness still I am getting the problem. He was not able to find my problem, he was listening to my problems but he said the same thing your nervous is blocked but he should give some solution. He could have suggested some treatment is surgery, he said us we cant to do anything this is the final and once and all he said that all nervous is burnt, what does it mean burnt? There is no treatment in the world. He did not explain the problems completely, this is the first time I visited to him.

*** **** ******** ******* prescribes medicine without even reading report and charges a hefty sum for that.
when I discussed my issue with him- instead of treating the disease he is in turn questioning me as to what can be done.
good thing I cam home and read about the medicines he prescribed. would have led to a critical condition if I had taken the medicines.
