Hi Readers,
I want to share my valuable experience with you all.
About 8 months before I was searching for a good hospital to get my father treated in Bangalore , as he is suffering from CKD since 3 years and since 10 months he is under Dialysis. To best of my knowledge, I got to know about "Dharma Kidney Care" and Dr. Prashant.
I visited him to discuss about my father's case, present condition and future prognosis; before I could get him here.
Believe me guys, he listened to all my details and queries so patiently and gave me many tips based on which I could guide my father being far from him. That time only I decided that I going to get my father for second opinion and advice regarding is treatment and progress.
Later on when I got him to this place, he continued dialysis at Dhama Kidney Care under the supervision of Dr Prashant. After the first session itself not only me, even my parents were so satisfied with the service, behavior and genuiness of the Dr and all the staffs over there. I felt so satisfied.
The way they started all the investigation and based on the investigation report all the treatments they conducted, my father really started improving. I could feel the confidence growing in him that he can be better if he continues like this. Seeing his courage and enthusiasm, we started getting motivated that "yes, we are on the right track and things will improve." Trust me this feeling of satisfaction took me to high. I was so happy to see my parents believing in them again and mostly ion the treatment.
Gradually we got to know how to maintain his day to day life. regarding food, medication everything they used to guide us. Tthey taught us as well how to check the Dialyser to that we will not get misguided.
I have never seen any hospital guiding so much on their own.
Starting from Dr Prashant, Dr Mahesh, Mr Kumar till all the staffs were very helpful, cooperative and caring.
From the bottom of my heart I thank Dr Prashant and all the staffs of Dharma Kidney Care to guide us in a correct path of Dialysis and moreover to boost my father's confidence and way of living which hardly any hospital or even any doctor is able to do now a days with such patients.
Hats Off to All of you!
I am posting all my experiences here and I really want people who are really suffering from Kidney complication should get care and treatment like this. I know how it feels to be in this state... so I will definitely want to guide people in a right direction.
In this era, where we, being laymen are looking for genuine treatment, health care centers like this should come up with the motive to service patients. Then only people will get back their faith and trust on Health sector.
I hope my experience will surely motivate people to get guided.
Thanks

This is to share my experience with doctor and with entire initiations with Dharma kidney care centre.Believe me being kidney failure patient at the age of 41yrs,I can really feel the importance of a proper advice and direction in disease management which can change the life of a patient.Super Specialist like Dr. Prashant C Dheerendra can really change is lifestyle of kidney failure patient with his innovation approach and with world class highly sophisticated Dharma kidney care hospital.
Tell you frankly ...since from past 4 years I am undergoing dialysis first and foremost i lost the job then somehow i managed my dialysis expense for 2 years then i thought of reducing cost and gone to cheaper dialysis centre but for that I paid a heavy price of getting infected with hepatitis C infection the most deadly infection due unhiginic practice in cheaper centre and Hepatitis C is very difficult to treat and one of major cause of liver failure.now getting transpant also become high risk and a really threat to my family too of getting spreading.
that is the time I met doctor and really showed me the world class dialysis and showed me the art of keeping hygienic approach even from the world's best R.O water treatment plan to entire techniques of the specialised technicians.
BELIEVE ME AFTER INTERACTING WITH DOCTOR AND FOLLOWING HIS ADVICE I STARTED GAINING LOT OF CONFIDENCE AND RESTARTED MY JOB WITH MORE ENERGETIC AND WITH LOT OF CONFIDENCE.I STARTED IMPROVING MY EARNINGS TOO AND NOW I CAN MANAGE MY ALL TREATMENT EXPENSE ON MY OWN.
I ALSO FEEL THE BEING WITH AND FOLLOWING WITH RIGHT SPECIALIST FOR THE KIND OF KIDNEY DISEASES IS ALWAYS MATTERS A LOT RATHER THE THINKING FOR SAVING FEW BUCKS.
Our experience with Dr. Prashant is really great. During normal health check-up, my father diagnosed with high creatinine level. When we visited another doctor at our native place we lost our confidence and we were worried. After going through Practo reviews, we visited Dr. Prashant at JP Nagar. After the first visit itself, he has built confidence with in us. He is honest and treats patient as per the requirement, there was no unnecessary tests and heavy medications. We visit the hospital frequently and each time we are treated well. Hospital staff are also very supportive and cooperative.
As my father stays at my native place, it is not always possible to visit Bangalore. However, Dr. Prashant encourages to get the tests done at my native place and to email the results to him. He immediately reply's to the mail with proper advice.
Overall, I strongly recommend Dr. Prashant for any Kidney realted issues.

Dr. Prashant's approach has been very positive from the start, be it analysis of the case, medication methodology and post treatment care - focusing more on how to make patient recover fast from current situation to how not to deteriorate the Kidney health further. His ability to clearly explain the condition and the procedure that will be followed put me at ease, this helped me decide on the course of action. The overall experience with Dr. Prashanth has been pleasant. Also the staff at Dharma Kidney Care been very understanding & co-operative. Thank you, Dr. Prashant for your valuable time and support.

Visited For Kidney Failure
My father is suffering from Kidney failure from last 1.5 years, He had diabetes from last 10 years, we used to get treatment for this in Samatvam JP nagar, When he was diagnosed with kidney failure, the diabetes doctor referred DR Prashanth, From that time we are getting treatment from him, He always responds to our calls, he gives right information on what is happening, he explains things in details what can be done and what are the choices, what are the alternatives, what kind of medicine needs to take, where to take, etc. He analyzes the symptoms, reports very well, and comes to conclusion of what my father going to face and tells us in advance and makes us mentally strong. I will definitely suggest him to my friends and families.

Dr. Prashant checked my father and also had a look at the reports. He gave some helpful tips in order to be healthy. Dr. Prashant is a very calm and down to earth person. Hope to explore more from his experience whatever that is helpful to my father's health.
Doctor Prashant patiently listened to us and went through the reports that we were carrying.
What stood out was he didn't suggest anything on top of the medication which my mother has been taking. This is quite unlike other doctors who change the course of treatment mid way without looking ar patient's medical history.
