Visited For Circumcision
Happy with: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for moneyWait time

Dr. Rajeev is skilled at explaining complex medical topics in an easy-to-understand manner, offering clear insights into the root causes of conditions.
Issue:
For the past 5-6 months, I had been experiencing restricted movement of the foreskin, which made retraction difficult. Initially, about 60-70% of the foreskin could retract, but over the last 1-2 months, this restriction worsened, and I could only retract about 5-10% of it.
Why Treatment Was Needed:
Improved Hygiene
Reduced Risk of Infection and Bacterial Growth
Better Sexual Health
Before Treatment:
1. First Visit – MatoShree Clinic
I explained my problem to Dr. Rajeev, who took the time to discuss the potential causes, symptoms, and treatment options with me. After examining the issue, he recommended Stapler Circumcision and thoroughly explained the procedure, including the steps to follow during recovery.
2. Second Visit – Manipal Hospital, Varthur
I visited Manipal Hospital for a second opinion. While the doctor briefly discussed my concerns, I found the experience less helpful. The hospital charged an additional registration fee, which seemed unnecessary, and the consultation itself did not address all of my queries in detail.
During Treatment:
Once I decided to proceed with Dr. Rajeev’s recommended treatment, the Stapler Circumcision procedure was performed smoothly. The entire process took about 15-20 minutes. Local anesthesia was applied, and I rested for a couple of hours afterward to allow the anesthesia to wear off. Initially, there was some discomfort, which was entirely normal.
A TPA (Third-Party Administrator) was present to assist with the medical insurance and cashless claim process, making the overall experience smooth and hassle-free.
Post-Treatment:
1. First 2 Days
After the procedure, I had to wear a dressing for the first two days. The tip of my penis was sensitive to the touch of clothing, so I wore a lungi to avoid irritation. During this period, even a light touch caused a mild tickling sensation.
2. After Dressing Removal (Day 3 onwards)
Once the dressing was removed, a stapler ring was visible around the head of the penis to help the skin heal. As per Dr. Rajeev’s advice, I cleaned the area three times a day using a water-soaked cloth, wore loose clothing (mostly lungis), and avoided using soap around the treated area. I also refrained from riding a bike and engaging in strenuous activities for the first two weeks.
There was a mild discomfort when erections occurred, as they put slight pressure on the stapler, but this discomfort subsided within 2-3 days as the new skin began to form.
3. Week 1
By Day 7, I noticed a significant improvement. Walking became easier, and the sensitivity around the treated area was greatly reduced. The stapler ring began to naturally loosen, and a portion of it fell off.
4. Week 2
By Day 14, only a small portion of the stapler ring remained. At this point, I was able to drive a scooty, though I still avoided any strenuous activity. I returned to my normal routine, including going to the office, while continuing to wear loose clothing.
5. Week 3 (Day 20)
After about 20 days, the stapler had completely fallen off. There was no discomfort whatsoever. During my final visit to Dr. Rajeev, he examined the area and confirmed that the healing was progressing well. The procedure was a success, and the skin had fully recovered.
Final Thoughts:
The entire process was smooth and well-managed, thanks to Dr. Rajeev's expertise and careful attention. I am now experiencing better hygiene, reduced sensitivity, and improved sexual health. I highly recommend Dr. Rajeev for anyone facing similar issues. His approach is thorough, and he ensures that you are well-informed and comfortable throughout the treatment journey.
The doctor explained everything clearly and my experience was smooth. I would definitely recommend Dr. Rajeev Bashetty and rate the visit a five out of five.
