I cannot speak highly enough about my experience with Dr. Jaka Sir. I underwent testicular surgery for a lesion. From the moment I met him, I have been at ease with his calm and composed demeanour. In every consultation, he took the time to explain every step of the procedure in detail, answering all of my questions with patience and clarity. Throughout the entire process, Sir demonstrated not only exceptional medical expertise but also genuine compassion and understanding. I am truly grateful for his outstanding care and highly recommend him to anyone seeking a skilled and empathetic surgical oncologist. Thank you Sir, for everything you’ve done for me so far!

My last 18 months of life chronical will be incomplete without the mention of this man. It was not long before I met him, I realised extraordinary people do exist. I'm in complete awe of this doctor for his expertise, persona, and temperament. I met Dr.Jaka for the first time in Nov 2020. I was already going through the treatment then. Had consulted a handful of notable doctors prior to that and they all had one opinion about my condition. Therefore, I was against the idea of consulting more doctors when my friends mentioned about him. However, I agreed to visit him for the only reason that he is an alumnus of "Navodaya". That moment changed everything. On my first consultation, he spent more than an hour reviewing my case history thoroughly. And said, I can beat the odds as opposed to what doctors had said earlier. I was happy but not overjoyed as I wasn’t too hopeful still. I met for the second time along with my family. After discussing with him, my folks were convinced for the surgery as well. Surgery date was set. I got admitted to the hospital. He operated me on Dec 2nd 2020 and did the best possible. Everything looked good for a day. Next day onwards I started developing different complications every single day. Here is what he did during the next 28 days while I was laying there with 6-7 odd pipes stuck into my body, with antibiotics flowing into my vein all through the day and those beeping machines,1.He visited me every single day. Didn’t take any weekly off, not even Christmas holiday, above all he skipped his BIL’s engagement for his patient. 2.He was available 24/7 either physically in the hospital or over the phone. 3.During those awful days, many times I begged him, tried to reason with him to put me to sleep. (It’s not legal in India). He didn't get angry instead he sat there listening to me and would say “I promise tomorrow would be a better day”.4.When my worried family would ask him the same questions repeatedly, he would answer them with the same composure each time.5.One day, on a late evening, when CT showed a leak inside, he performed another surgery to fix it @ 10:30 in the night although it could wait till morning. In gist, he is a skilled surgeon who defines the word ‘Doctor’, comes with abundance of patience, soft spoken, composed and smiling. You rarely come across such a combination. 10 months since my surgery, I’m delighted that I took his advice. He is my go-to person for every nuisance I face medically. Today I walk 4kms a day, drive and thinking of going hiking, cycling. I was looking for a miracle and it came in the name of ‘Rajshekar C Jaka’ for me. I still have unfinished businesss with doctor 😊. He is certain it will all be sorted out.Kavitha Parameshwarappa

My father was diagnosed with Carcinoma (Oral cancer), we visited Dr Jaka for 2nd opinion. From the moment we met Dr. Jaka, we felt reassured that we were in the hands of a skilled and experienced surgeon who truly cared about his patients. Dr. took the time to listen to my father's concerns and explained the surgical procedure in a way that he could understand. He answered all our questions thoroughly and patiently, which gave us a sense of confidence and trust in his abilities.
During my father's surgery, he demonstrated the highest level of skill and precision, and we felt assured that he was receiving the best possible care. Following the procedure, ensured that my father received the necessary Radiation therapy & follow-up care.
I am writing this testimony after 5 months of my father’s surgery. During these tough times he was always available over phone calls, what’s app & clinic visit.
I have accepted Dr Jaka as almighty, and make sure to join hands to pay my gratitude whenever I cross his clinic.
My father is now on the road to recovery and his prognosis is excellent. We cannot thank Dr Jaka enough for the exceptional care that he provided to my father.

He did whipple surgery on my 78y old mother. Initially I had doubt whether to get surgery done at a large cancer center like Medanta or tata but we selected dr Jaka. My mom went through a long recovery due to infections but eventually she recovered and is doing good now. This is a very complex surgery and dr Jaka has done an amazing one. His assistant dr. Mouli is also amazing and is always available for help. Do not think twice if you are looking for cancer surgeon.

Lot of thanks to him and may god bless him.
