Previously we had visited other doctor for same issue, but service provided was not satisfactory, hence we came to this facility where not only the treatment provided was satisfactory but also the detailed explanation of disease condition and the staff especially were very cooperative and thier dedicated work for patient care and patient safety were tremendous. I seriously recommend each and every patient suffering from same condition do visit once and have a safe and satisfactory recovery from this facility. Moreover the charges here are way far better than the charges outside.
