Feedback for Dr. K. Rajashekar
Visited For Orthodontic Treatment
Happy with: Doctor friendliness
Previously I had an orthodontic treatment 10 years back. Now I have been suffering difficult so much in my mouth as the alingment in the left side was relapse as well as crooked teeth in the front. The doctor didn't charge consultation fees but he told he can't treat and the previous doctor has to treat again.

I have been undergoing Teeth correction for 2.5 years, since I had shifted home its far for me to go the previous Orthodontist and also I wanna know the status of my treatment so I consulted Dr. Rajashekar. But he told he can't treat the patient unless the previous Doctor gives the transfer letter for the patient, also he said we doctors are in the same city and same medical association, later it will become a problem for us. Its his ethics not to treat other Doctors Patient unless its given in written by the previous Doctor.
