Dr Srinivasa is very friendly, approachable and *** **** ********* ***** *** ** **** **** ****** ****** ****** **** ********** not always with medicines, but he rather prefers home remedies which are actually effective. He is very caring while doing routine check up of small babies, observes them minutely and will try to give every single detail related to their health, overall growth and explains well with medical reasoning. He listens to you patiently and tries to clear all your doubts. He is never in hurry, gives you sufficient time and always ask if we have any further questions or doubts. We are highly satisfied with Dr Murthy for our 4 month daughter, right from her birth till date for all her vaccination and routine check up and would recommend him to our friends.

Dr.Srinivas was phenomenal in treating my son with pre-term delivery. Post delivery Dr. Srinivas carried out the procedures for more than 2 hrs and ensured the baby is safe and all necessary action taken on time with detailed briefing.
His expertise on pre term babies is outstanding and within 7 days the baby was discharged from NICU and we are following up with the dr Srinivas for jaundice treatment.
I recommend dr. Srinivas murthy for pre term baby consultation and follow through.
Good job Dr. Appreciate all your efforts.

The level of care given to the children appeared insufficient. Instead of providing a clear explanation of the issue, there was a strong push for admission and inquiries about health insurance. **** ********** ****** ** ** **** ******** **** ****** *** ***** *** ******* ******* *** ** **** ********* *** *** ******* **** ********************** ** *** ********** **** *** ********** ***** **** ********* *** ** **** **** ****** ********** *********.
I will not recommend this hospital or the doctor for pediatric care.

Doctor was very patient when listening to us, he listens to understand and not to answer. His was of putting across things is brilliant, he uses medial terms and then explains us in lay man terms so that we understand everything clearly. His treatment plan and follow up was great, he shares his personal contact (which is very rear) to reach in case of emergency. Most important of all, his words and actions make you trust him and his treatment without any doubt. Our baby was in safe hands, thank you Doctor.

Our twin babies were born prematurely and kept in NICU for 28 days. Our babies discharged and came home in good health.
Dr. Srinivasa treated our babies with step by step treatments like addressing respiratory problems, feed tolerance, treat the jaundice....
Best part of his is he listens to you patiently and carefully and answers you with good explanation, so that you will understand the problem as well as steps to be taken to address the problem.
He updates the progress of the baby during his rounds to NICU by explaining all the details like how much weight baby gain / lose, what are the symptoms they have observed yesterday and how they will handle that.
He always ends the conversation by asking the patient's "Do you have any question", by this patient will get chance to recall and ask if they have anything.
Overall I am satisfied with his treatment.

Visited for Twins- New Born.
Twin Boys were born end of 34 th week on 01.01.18.
Both had to be kept at NICU due to prematurity( 34+6weeks).
Twin-1 & Twin-2 were at NICU for 9 days & 18 days respectively due to Respiratory Distress; Sepsis; Viral Infection; Jaundice & other minor issues.
We were updated on daily basis on the status, progress made on daily basis during this tenure at Hospital. We are very happy on the new born kids recovery, the treatment that the kids received at NICU during the stay & returning back to home in good health. The interaction with the Doctor was very cordial during this stay.

*** ******** ** *** ** *** **** **** ****** *** *********** ***** *** ********* ** *********** ******** **** ******* ** ************ The best part about visits to him is that he would not recommend any unnecessary treatment and would mostly try avoiding medication unless it's completely necessary. If in case there is a condition, he explains it in detail to the parents before starting the treatment which helps us understand why we are doing something for the baby. Also, he's always available on call during emergency and responds back to messages quickly which avoids unnecessary visits to the hospital.
In my personal opinion, as parents we love to give the best care to our babies and with a paed who understands the baby's health so well, we wouldn't be compromising on healthcare :)
Visited For Consultation provided for newborns
Nature wise doctor is very good, very patient and answers each and everything u want to ask. Now coming to treatment part doctor starts the treatment even before getting the reports which came negative after 4 days of giving antibiotics by canula placed in baby hand. **** ****** *** *** ****** **** ******* **** *** ***** *** *** ***** **** ************** 4 days of pain to baby and parents getting baby injected every 12 hours.
