Happy with: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issue
The 1st time registration at Sakra World Hospital took too long. Booked the appointment for 2.30 PM, registration concluded at 3 PM, was able to meet the doctor only after 3.15 PM for a few minutes. \n\nDoctor Harinarayan has a very pleasant & easy going manner. \n\nDoctor Harinarayan looked at the latest physical test done 2 days back in a Systematic way, asked pertinent questions & suggested a new course of diabetes treatment \/ control. \n\nNext appointment in 2 Weeks to see the Diabetes situation change with treatment. \n\nThe Sakra World Hsopital New Registration Validity is too short - Just 1 Week. My personal Sakra World Hospital experience was generally Ok, nothing out of the ordinary as such.

Visited Dr. Hari Narayan for my Mother's Diabetes Management last November, 2017 and since then visiting him every 3 months.
more..WORST experience with Dr. CV Harinarayan. I'm not one for exaggeration or worst view. But you should seriously consider reviewing the work of Dr. CV Harinarayan. When I took my mother for a review of her ongoing medication on diabetics, this doctor didn't bother to even look at her. His communication was limited to me telling him history where he kept checking his phone. And then he gave a list of tests including various X-Rays for her previous operations without even examining her. My first reaction after coming out was to throw the consultation paper in garbage and regret me spending 2 hours and 700/- rupees to see this unprofessional.

This doc from sakra is very impatient and he doesn't respect patients. He is hot headed gets irritated if patients miss any lab reports for follow up consultation.
