He has been treating pediatric spine problems with hunch back problems.His real strength has been in treating people with failed back surgery, that is revision spine surgery. His results in correcting spine surgeries with complicated spine problems after an initial spine surgery have been excellent and it is a real challenge as it is already distorted the original anatomy. His revision spine surgery work is almost 30 to 40 percent of all his spine work.

Visited For Ankle Injury

Visited For Neck Pain Treatment
I dont have to write a review for this brilliant doctor but anyway, I will try to put in a few words..
He is one of the best spine doctors we have in Karnataka. You need to sit and talk to him to understand how effectively he can help you. All the past history should be given to him accurately for proper diagnosis. He understand the severity of the issue and helps you guide from there.
One sincere request to the public, please do not curse the doctor if he is late or he is stuck in an emergency. Please be patient.
Doctors are equal to god. dont criticize them without knowing the facts.
Thanks.
Visited For Bone Fracture
Happy with: Explanation of the health issueTreatment satisfaction
One of the great doctor, ever I met. I went to him with father in law 5 yrs ago and looking to write feedback for him so that it can help others and pay little gratitude to great man.The things that impressed me...1. He pays time more to understand the problem than writing the prescription.2. To focused treatments, good explanation of problem and why he is giving the particular treatments.Many doctors give too many medicines to my father in law for a simple fracture not getting settled. But He just cured with 150 rs stretch.the way he explained it seemed very trivial problem and simple solution required.
Visited For Joint and Muscle Problems
First of All, ASRA hospital is not well maintained. Doctors, Nurses were sparse. Emergency Beds were not well kept. Doctor's consultation room was covered in dust & foul AC smell. The X-Ray is at basement **** ** ******** ****** & it was difficult to breathe in such a solid environment.
Secondly, The doctor seemed to be only looking of patients for surgery **** ** ******* ** *** ********** Please do not visit ASRA hospital again.
I had an appointment with Dr Shetty on 18/04/2015 which i had booked before two weeks. It was clearly informed that i m coming from North-East and my problem has been escalating day by day. But i was flabbergasted on knowing that Dr. Shetty is out of station on the same day around 4 hrs before my appointment time. We had no prior information about non-availability of doctor either telephonically or message. Being such a reputed clinic, this is very unprofessional and carelessness. I am deeply hurt by such response.
Hope you will take this matter seriously and find out the reason for such negligence.

Happy with the consultation I had with this doctor. The first appointment was in Apollo Spectra Hospital, Koramangala in evening and was disappointing in the sense we had to wait for more than an hour to see him. The followup was in his clinic in Koramangala which was very quick as there was just one patient before me and the appointment was in the morning. His PA/secretary is helpful in guiding the patients with appointments and directions of the consultation location.
