I express my heartfelt thanks to doctor Suraj Manjunath. His exceptional care and expertise in treatment of my father’s oral cancer was invaluable. I read many reviews about him before consulting him and most of them specified about him explaining the disease to the patient with diagrams and layman language. They were all completely True. We had a similar session with him during the consultation where he explained in detail about cancer.
During the surgery, he made sure to keep us informed about the process and the my father’s status on call. And he gave us the detail information about the pre and post surgery process. At the same time he didn’t bombard us with too many information, he gave right information at tight time.
Thanks you Dr Suraj for being the integral part of my father’s recovery journey.
I met Dr. Suraj today for my mother's treatment for an enlarged lymph in neck. He was kind enough to explain what a lymph is, why it gets infected, diagnosis methods and how to treat without surgery. He referred her to a TB expert and walked all the way with us to the other doctor. He explained his observations/findings and made sure we get appropriate treatment. And to our surprise, at the end of all consultation, he walked back to us along with TB expert and induced confidence. I still wonder how such a popular and busy doctor can do this. There is a lot to learn from him. Hats off to you Sir. Thanks a ton.
