Dr. Srigiri S Revadi

First, I thank Practo website through which I knew about the doctor and with the help of its recommendations and feedback, we decided to consult the doctor for wheezing problem. I was having dust allergy problem and due to bangalore's weather, I would finally end with wheezing in the night. I used to cough badly in the night that I have to sleep with 2 pillows or sleep while sitting up straight. I had consulted other doctors nearby and everyone suggested with an inhaler which just gave instant relief. I had consulted him thrice(2 followups post the first visit) and I'm almost out of wheezing. :). The doctor listens to the problem with patience and asks in depth to know about the lifestyle. Before prescribing medicines, did a pulmonary test to validate that the medicine is working indeed. He makes the patient feel that the problem will be cured which made me feel optimistic. The medicines were not over dose and prescribed just the right medicine with the right dosage. I would highly recommend this doctor for pulmonary problem.

I went to the Doctor for second opinion. And I told him that. He looked into all the reports, talked very kindly to me, then asked me the medicines I was asked to take by the first doctor. He immediately said for my condition, he would give me other 2 medicines, which was in line with my internet study. With that medicine, I am perfectly alright now. Of course I have to wait and see the latest x Ray results, The Doctor asked me to come after 1 month. He also explained the various aspects of my sensitivity and gave me tips to manage the same. He spends quality time with the patients.

My mother is suffering from cough and breathless problem from last one year. She was perfectly healthy and active year back. Its been 2-3 different antibiotic doses, different tests been carried out, Multiple ENT visits in different cities but there was temporary relief. Yesterday I went to Dr. Srigiri Revadi by searching in Practo and his first impression assured me that he will take me out of this pain. First thing I noticed is his approach and time he give to his patients. ** ** **** ** **** ** ****** ** *** ******* *** **** ******* I am sure, I will come back and post another review after few weeks. I am in this part of city from 15 years but Bangalore hospital I visited first.

"Compassion Unlimited" I could see in his actions.

Doctor was very polite. He listened to my problem patiently. Asked me various questions to drill down the issue. Suggested me what could be my problem, then conducted X Ray and PFT test and finally analyzed the results and suggested me medicine. Also suggested certain daily routine which would help me. I came from far away from munnekolala to meet Dr Revadi since there were lot of positive reviews. I am very satiesfied. Those reviews were original not fake. Doctor does not believe in installing fear on patients unlike the doctors in big hospitals. I would recommend Dr Revadi to any one who has asthma, allergy or chest congession.

We visited him few months back for my uncle's check-up for TB(Tuberculosis), before visiting him we had also visited 2 more docs who were in-experienced and could not guide us in identifying the disease, hence we took my uncle to this doc as he is experienced as per practo. He speaks well no doubt, but he ****** ** ****** *** ******** My uncle was coughing since more than 2 months and it should have been his first guess to check for cancer however he assumed that it is TB and gave us medicines, my uncle started taking medicines for TB (though he was not having this), as his cough could not come to control we visited Dr.Giri with in a week although he had asked us to visit him after a month time and he again insisted my uncle to take the same medicines, again in the next week we went to him as my uncle's situation was going worse, he again insisted my uncle to take same medicines and this time he gave us steroids so that it comes to control as my uncle was going week and hardly taking food, we believed him and again after a week we visited him stating he is not improvising, still he insisted the same medicines with little more dosage steroids, being a doctor he should have at least asked us to check for cancer as we visited him 4 times in a month time, later we consulted another doctor as Dr.Giri's treatment was not going good for us, and we realized that any disease which stays for more than 2 or 3 weeks we should always suspect the worst case first as the treatment for deadly diseases are at most important. My uncle is no more today, Dr.Giri simply wasted our precious 45 days in taking the same medicines without any cure* ** *** ********* ** ********* **** *** ********* ***** My request to you all is, do not believe any doctor, go for 2nd and 3rd opinion until the disease gets identified. We trusted Dr.Giri and we lost our uncle sooner :-( I do not suggest him thought he speaks well and very well experienced* ** ****** ** *********** *** ******** he took us for granted. This is the problem in India, Doctors do not recognize the disease by testing they identify it by hearing the patients and start treatment :-(

He did not answer our questions at all. All we asked was:

1. Can the illness be cured?

2. If yes, how long will it generally take?

3. Do we have to keep taking that Asthmatic medicine forever?

I was worried about being dependent on a medicine for my day to day life.

The doctor had told us we have to take it, we asked for how long. Instead of comforting us or telling us let’s reevaluate after 3 months of 6 months he simply says - I have explained how the medicine works, You keep asking the same question.

Our fear was only one thing. Is this a critical illness without any cure? Am I asthmatic? If yes, what are the treatments available. How long will the treatment take.

He kept telling us how the medicine opens up valves on the lungs etc. that’s not our question!

We never got a straight answer from him. Will not go back.

What a wonderful doctor he is! He listens to you without showing any annoyance even if you take longer to explain. He not only performs through check-ups but also take time and give attention to minute details. He makes you feel so comfortable. His experience and knowledge about the field shows up when he talks to you about the problem. He doesn't recommend many tests/medicine and also doesn't discourage any patient about a disease in initial phase (No Horror movies).

I highly recommend him for the related issues.

Go with some extra time as he takes longer than usual and that's good for any patient.

The first time we met this doc, he was ok initially. ********* ** ****** * *** ** ********* My dad is aged. We will ask questions for our clarification and understanding. But this doctor started giving rough answers.

For every question we ask, he either gives a tough look or says its not concerned with pulmonology. We went to him thrice after the first meeting also, to show the test results he asked to do.

At the end of all this he asked us to continue with the same inhalers we originally used. *** ***** ****** *** ***** ****** ** **** *** ********He is not recommended. * ***** *** ** ********* ** **** **** ** ********* ****** *** ***** *** ******** ******* *********** ** ***** ** ******* *** ******** **** *** ******* ******* *** **** ****** ** * ****** ** ***

Very good Doctor. My mother had bronchitis problem and I had seen lot of doctors in Bangalore in big hospitals. All of them were behind making money with lot of unwanted tests and prescribed useless medicines. Dr Revadi did simple investigation and provided effective treatment. My mum saw improvement in a week. Would highly recommend him

*** ******* * ****** ** * ********* ******* thanks to Practo for suggesting this doctor, my father was suffering from severe cough and cafa problem, the problem came down within a week after taking the treatment. Before coming to this doctor, we visited other doctors and tried their medicines for 3 weeks but it did not worked. Dr Srigiri diagnosed my father problem correctly and suggested suitable medicines and helped him to recover soon. Thank you Dr Srigiri and thanks practo.
