Patient Stories for Dr. Sirish Nelivigi
Visited For Eye Checkup - General
Finally after two poor experiences (both via Practo!), I found a trustworthy doctor.
First day I walked in and was the last patient for the day (almost 9 PM), still the doctor was extremely patient and gave me full attention.
Explained the differences in previous two doctor prescribed powers very nicely.
Gave a correct conversion for contact lens power which I verified from multiple sources later (first two doctors had prescribed it completely wrong).
Did go back to him for a retina checkup also. Overall a great experience.
Visited For Nearsightedness
A good clinic to approach for regular eye checkups. But I'll equipped for advanced conditions. I had a retinal problem which Dr. Shireesh diagnosed. He said that I should get it checked by a retina specialist and that they would call me from the clinic on the day the specialist consults there. Though my condition was serious, I did not get a call back for weeks, despite me following up. I understand that the specialist's availability is limited. But if they knew that, they should have recommended that I approach someone else instead of keeping me waiting.
Visited For Eye Infection
Dr is really good and efficient.I visit Dr Sirisha for all my eye related issues.
The guy at the front desk is arrogant and not understanding.I visited the clinic yesterday for follow up and enrolled at front desk.
I was no 6 in the queue, and when enquired i was told it will take another 1.5 hrs for my turn.
I informed at the desk that my baby is in NICU at Sakra and need to get some accessories from. Medical shop and will be back in 20 minutes.
The guy at reception informed me that it's not possible.
I really don't understand the logic behind this.when there is already waiting time of 1.5 hrs, going out for an emergency does that really matters to this guys?
Anyways doctor is excellent and patient enought to listen to all your problems.Though I shifted to KR Puram I don't mind traveling for 1.5hrs to meet Dr.Sirish.
