Hoped for better: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issue
I have been visiting the doctor for 5 years. For my wife in her gestational diabetics from the time he was practicing in Narayana Whitefiled.
Hence I suggested by my mother-in-law for diabatic management, out of 5, the initial first two visits were OK, later I was not happy with the doctor's behavior as he is always engaged in his phone ******** ****** while we were explaining our issues, and also he makes us wait ***** ** ***** ** *** ******** which is really annoying.
Please pay attention to patients and listen to their issues, as they might have come from far away places, like us, nearly 450 KM's.
I wish this story will be read by the doctor and understand. Thanks.
I consulted doctor due to elevated level of TSH in my thyroid function tests. Doctor was friendly and approachable *** *** ** ** *** *********** ******* **** I'm thankful I consulted him at the right time.. did not prescribe any unnecessary tests. Would recommend to family and friends.

I'm 34 and am being treated for hypothyroidism for three years. I have fluctuating TSh results. Practitioners told me conflicting results of my thyroid tests. He lisened to me patiently and explained new things. Asked me to look problem from a different perspective. gave me more medicines to improve my energy levels. Waiting for the results , so far im satisfied
Visited For Hyper / Hypo - Thyroidism Treatment
Doctor was ok with very minimal interaction. The lab was atrocious as they took 3 days for results when they said it will be available next day and they didnt convey about the readiness of reports unless and until I called them several times. If you are looking for treatment better just get lab work done outside and just consult with doctor there. NEVER use their lab for tests.

Doctor has patiently listen to the problem and try to understand it by doing some instant blood tests. Prescribed the medicine for 6 weeks to see how it works for me. It seems he believe he believes in trial and error method, as he explained some diabetic medicin may suit you and some may not, also the quantity has to be reviewed and revised after frequent intervals. Let's see how it goes, but I am happy and looking forward for improvements.

Doctor doesn't seem to be very friendly and looks always busy on phone while talking to patients.Also his use of "life long treatment" without considering the fact that issue arises due to pregnancy and delivery, without any personal and family history of illness, is very demotivating. He could at least be bit considerate and give patients some positivity.

He was hesitant to inspect my father. And he just observed him from a distance. He was pushing for a complete diabetes health test package. He didn't tell or suggested specific test but complete package. When I later checked with helper if I could do that from other facility he wanted us to check it with doctor.
