He one of the top gastroenterologist in bangalore.
I had very good experience with Dr. Ravindra. The way he takes care of his patients is uncommon. He is very humble and gives ample time to each patients. He has vast experience in gastro field. I was in critical situation when i was referred to vellore from Ranchi. My brother n sister who stays in bangalore booked flight immediately and booked appointment with Dr. Ravindra B S, inspite of no slot i came as walkin and i was still given ample time. I was in state of fear and trauma after being referred from Ranchi but after meeting him i was confident that i am at right place. Same day i completed all necessary scan and test. Next day i was called to BGS Global Hospital in Kingeri, Bangalore. The Stone was blocking my bile duct completely and i have developed Jaundice and infection. Inspite of all odds the ERCP procedure was smooth and he managed to pull out stone of 16mm from a 6 mm duct. ** ******* *** **** ******** ********* *** i was in my senses with next hr. With little pain i was advised to stay for one and discharged the very next day. He was very helpful in making the report so that the insurance is claimed. I met him yesterday after a week with LFT report and there was very good improvement. Jaundice is gone and no pain and suffering. Such immediate treatment is not expected in my home town where many such cases had sad ending. He gave me a new life. For me its a miracle i would confidently recommended everyone to go to Dr. RAVINDRA BS for your gastro /liver/kidney related issue.

** * ********* ** ** *** ** ** *** **** ******* * **** **** ****** ** ** ***** **** *** ** simply a gem of a person having wonderful diagnostic abilities. I am 65 years old residing in Kolkata and have been suffering from stomach related issues since many years. I showed many doctors in Kolkata including 2 eminent gastroentologists of Kolkata, but no one could diagnose my ailment. Finally I gave myself a last chance and showed Dr. Ravindra B S a few days back and he after a few tests including UGI Endoscopy diagnosed my ailment and prescribed medicines, which after starting I began to get substantial relief. What no doctor could do, Dr. Ravindra did for me and I feel that I am on the road to recovery. ** ** **** * **** ****** *** listens to the patient's problems very very patiently. I asked him so many questions relating to my ailment and he without any hesitation gave replies to each and every question to my utmost satisfaction. Inspite of being a very busy doctor, not once did he rush through but very patiently attended to my concerns that I raised before him. I really was very lucky to have the privilege to show myself to such an efficient and sincere doctor. And his fees are extremely reasonable as compared to his tremendous ability of diagnosing a disease. It is very rare to find such good, efficient and caring doctors in today's world .
I visited Dr Ravindra for addressing a problem related to my stomach. I used to get stomach pain and bloating even after a very small meal. I used to have loss of sleep due to severe acidity and pain around 3 am almost 3-4 days a week. For the last two years or so I have been treated by many physicians. Treatment was mostly with antacids, H2 antagonists and proton pump blockers which provided symptomatic relief. Frustrated with the repeated consumption of these drugs I walked into Dr a Ravindra's clinic in the morning one day. There was no problem consulting him at Meenakshi Institute of Gastroenterology. The staff out there were courteous. Dr Ravindra was focussed on my history and quickly made the arrived at the need of endoscopy which he himself did immediately. He took biopsy sample and confirmed H pylorie infection - all in two hours. I was prescribed minimum medicines and now feeling much better now after 12 days of treatment. Dr Ravindra BS is a thorough professional, polite and explains in all simplicity the problem. He treats the cause with minimum medication and maximum assurance. He is focussed on the problem and the relevant solution. His line of treatment is holistic. Overall I would rate Dr Ravindra as an outstanding Gastroenterologist with a very pleasant personality who is thoroughly professional and treats holistically with minimum essential medication.

Doctor worked on my gastrointestinal issues primarily pertianing to Pancreas and Bile duct. He provided good, honest and sincere treatment. When other leading Bangalore gastro doctors were strongly recommending major surgery for Bile Duct reconstruction and scared me that if I do not get that done, I will need hispitalization every fee months; he recommended a conservative treatment based on diet and some medicines and I am happy that with his recommended course of treatmen,t I have been keeping stable. My full marks to the doctor.
Visited For Gastroesophageal reflux
I visited doc last week and after explaining my problem, Doc gave prescribed medicines and asked me to come back after 5 days if problem still persists, so that I can go for tests like endoscopy. In between the course I was experienced more pain. So decided to meet the Doctor. I called up the clinic number and informed about my situation, but receptionist/doctor assistant told me there were no slots available, even I asked for walk-in.For walk-in also he declined.second day same repeated.then I just walk-in today(10th Aug) as it is 7th day from my initial visit. Doctors assistant told me that it was not possible today as lot patients are there.I just waited for an hour plus for all patients were done, by the time I'm about to check with doctor, doctor started to leave and his assistant told him about me, but Doctor told me sorry as he needs to rush to a meeting and he told me generally he won't decline any one but that day he has to. Now question to Doctor is, if patient is unable to get follow up schedule due to over crowded, what is the point of follow up. In my case I will get schedule appointment on 16th only. I see a clear process lapse. Guide you Assistant to have some common sense to handle exceptions or Ask Proctor to provide an option of follow up schedule appointments. This feedback is nothing to do with Doctors treatment capabilities, but process lapse that there are following which turn out to be nightmare to patient. I hope Doctor will take care of it to avoid these lapses in future.

Visited For Colonoscopy

I visited doctor Ravindra BS upon a recommendation by another doctor to visit a specialist.
I was struggling with stomach ache and diarrhoea.
Doctor quickly gave me the medicine to manage pain and normalise bowel movements and then suggested I do a colonoscopy. After taking my feedback , he recommended that I get it done at Fortis instead of his own clinic as they provided sedation
Turned out to be good feedback, colonoscopy was Painless and doctor oversaw the colonoscopy.
Highly recommended!

After consulting with the doctor and undergoing some tests, I was prescribed some medicine to my stomach pain and discomfort. Though I am feeling little bit improvement before the treatment, but still its not completely gone. Doctor has advised to take medicine for another 20 days. Hope under his good supervision I will be cured completely and waiting patiently till full recovery. And by the way doctor is very gentle and assured me that the problem will be cured with due course of time. God bless him and keep him in good health so that he will be able to serve people at large, cause doctor like him is need of hour, which is rare now a days. Thank you doctor very much
Visited For GERD
*** ** *** **** ******* *** can say great human being.
I have consulted him for my mothers gastric related issues.
within a day medication she is feeling better.
Listens our problems patiently. Answers all our queries.
The very thought of hospitalization is scary and traumatizing. But caring doctors like him make it friendly and pleasing.
comforting and reassuring words are sometimes more powerful than the medicines. He avoids unnecessary medicines and treatment.
I suggest for stomach related issues just once meet him.
hygienic Systemically and well organized helping teams at his clinic.
plan in advance for his appointment because of many patients. If you have appointment no need to wait much.

The waiting area is clean and well maintained but was crowded. Unfortunately the appointment started more than 40 minutes late. Hope this can be avoided in future. Dr Ravindra was polite and courteous and patiently heard about my problem. He explained to me in simple terms as to what could be the reason for the problem and prescribed few medicines and diet for faster recovery. Dr Ravindra was assuring in his approach and did not suggest unnecessary tests or too many medicines. Hope the appointments can be started on time and not delayed
