This doctor fixed my lungs ong. I'd get horribly sick every year (honestly, ever since childhood) and lose days of my life to breathing issues, lots of phlegm, and pneumonia. It's not an experience one can forget, with the endless nebulizers, spacers, inhalers, medications, and hospitalizations. I saw quite a few doctors throughout all of this, nothing EVER worked out for me, the breathing and phlegm issues would just return like a ghost coming to haunt me, and I'd just given up and come to the conclusion that my lungs were weak. Until I got diagnosed here with quite a few allergies that were the underlying cause and got treated for them. Doc was well-informed , detail-oriented and all that jazz that you except from a good doctor but more than that what I appreciated was that he actually paid attention (God knows I would've been fixed years ago if any doctor even paid half as much attention. No shade to other docs but yeah). You have to wait a bit in line but it's okay. He recommended allergy tests which were positive. And then the treatment for the same began, and I recently realized that I haven't had even one extreme bronchitis or asthma episode in over a year ( hope i don't jinx it lol) and it made me tear up. It genuinely still makes me want to cry because there were times that I thought it would never go away, that I was destined to be the sick girl. Some things in life you take for granted, but I don't want to take this recovery for granted because my breathing issues genuinely affected me so much mentally as well, and I'm over the moon that it's mostly gone except sometimes in high allergen environments but in those cases the meds + inhaler that this doctor had once prescribed fix me almost instantly. I'm writing this review out of gratitude, lots of happy tears, and also to recommend this doctor to anybody who has suffered from allergy-induced asthma and bronchitis. If you're struggling to breathe hit this doc up, this guy is OG.
I recommend Dr. Vasunethra Kasargod. She was trustworthy and stood out positively compared to others.

i am a patient of asthma not exactly knowing about my condition and the stage of disease and was on continuous corticosteroid for around 2 years, then i visited Dr Vasunethra on recommendation from one of my relative, then doctor helped me understand better about my condition by doing certain investigations like allergen test for which I was positive ,so the doctor modified the treatment plan and started me on immunotherapy in combination with steroids, now it's been almost 1&half years since the treatment started and I am happy with the progression of the treatment and I responded well to the treatment, I am glad that i went to Dr Vasunethra and I am thankful to him. Lastly kudos to super friendly staff aswell.
Visited For Lung Infections Treatment
Happy with: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for money
In April 2022, I experienced normal flu symptoms and a cough. Initially, I believed it was just a regular flu due to the changing seasons, so I decided to visit a nearby clinic. The doctor there recommended some medicines, but unfortunately, they didn't provide any relief. Concerned about my health, I made the decision to move to city in search of better treatment.\n\nUpon reaching the new city, I consulted various doctors who suggested numerous tests during each visit, Additionally, they prescribed several medications despite my insistence that I only had a common flu. To my surprise, one doctor informed me that I had asthma. This revelation was shocking, considering I had never smoked or been exposed to any drugs in my life. I grew up in an area with clean air and surrounded by forests, so it seemed implausible. I struggled to maintain focus, and the dry cough persisted despite taking the prescribed medications.\n\nThroughout eight months of futile visits to the doctor, each time I was presented with a different explanation. Frustrated and losing hope, I eventually quit my job due to the toll it took on my mental health. It was at this point that a friend from Bangalore suggested Dr. Vasunethra Kasargod to me. Initially, I hesitated, fearing it would be another financial burden. However, my friend assured me that Dr. Kasargod was an exceptional doctor, and it was worth giving it a try.\n\nTaking my friend's advice to heart, I booked my tickets to Bangalore and arranged a meeting with Dr. Kasargod at Manipal Hospital. To my surprise, on the first visit, he recommended that I stop taking all the previous medications and prescribed a new set of medications worth only cost Rs 30\/=. He diagnosed me with hyperventilation, stating that I was 100% fit and did not have asthma. Though skeptical, I followed his treatment plan, and to my amazement, I experienced a 80% improvement in my condition.\n\nI am immensely grateful to Dr. Kasargod for his expertise and guidance, which has significantly improved my health. I am truly thankful to him for giving me hope and a chance to regain my well-being.\
