Dr. Sheela mam thoroughly checked the previous reports and diagnosed ********** **** it was due to sodium deficiency due to a medicine prescribed by another physician. She immediately asked to stop this medicine. My dad was recovered within 5 days. He is able to walk again. I always pray to god that he remains this healthy.

She is my favorite doctor visited multiple times for different issues. She is very friendly and removes our worry for any illness with humor sense. More than therapy, i like this humor therapy. Highly recommended and your patience is very important. She is highly professional and doesn't encourage any shortcut to visit her. Strictly on appointment and in order.
Visited For Anaemia & blood disorders
Hoped for better: Wait time
My mother had a post spine surgery follow up with Dr. Sheela and was asked to come on a particular date to the hospital. Inspite of taking a prior appointment, paying her consultation fees and waiting outside her cabin informing her that my mother was waiting in the emergency room for her visit for 4 hours, this doctor just vanished from the hospital. I was told that she had an emergency and hence left for the day. Strange that she had an emergency outside the hospital over a patient waiting in the emergency room for her visit. Not even her assistants bothered to visit my mother until i was adamant that somebody should see her. Dr. Sheela made my mother with stiches all over her back wait for 4 hours for which i had to pay Rs.570/- per hour towards emergency room charges and an ambulance that was waiting for us to return. Fortis standards have really fallen thanks to doctor’s like Sheela Chakravarthy. Will never visit this doctor again. Is totally unreliable and not worth your time and money.
Visited For Fever Treatment
I had viral since 3 days. Already I had consulted with two doctors earlier. The problem was that body temperature was not decreasing even after taking medicine. So, I thought to consult a Dr. at Fortis. I waited almost 2.5 hours then visited Dr. Sheela. I experienced that she is not interested in listening the problem and already has her mindset. She told that it's a normal fevel will cure by time. But soon I observed temperature reaches to 104.9°F. Then I went to another hospital and they admitted.

Visited doctor two times for my mother, we have already told please dont give sleeping pills as she has medical history, she already still she has given by saying its not for sleeping it will just give rest, on the second visit **** ** *** ****** ****** ****** she told she has given sleeping medicine it did not suites and to stop it. We should be known of what medicine we are taking, even though we asked we were not informed that sleeping pills are provided. Very disappointed.
I have been consulting Dr. Sheela Chakravarthy from last two months. She is very **** *** approachable. She listened to my issues well and then suggested for some necessary medical tests and X ray. Based on the reports, treatment was given. I am satisfied with the results to a great extent. Will surely recommend her to everyone.
Extremely good doctor. Awesome diagnosis.. Could detect problem very easily. She diagnosed me with a complicated UTI which I suffered on and off for 20 years and none of the doctor could ever tell me... Her best part is medicines.. Very optimum and minimal medicine. And her polite and understanding nature is her USP...

Visited For Low Platelets
Happy with: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issue
I am writing this on behalf of my father, he was complained with low platelet count. As soon as we got to know about this, we arrived to this hospital and we were told to have a consultation with a doctor before the patient gets admitted. It was Dr. Sheela chakravarthy, my father felt very much energetic with her humble and polite speech in understanding his condition. The doctor suggested for tests in emergency ward; with tests had been taken, except for one which was said to be taken on the same day. Except for delay in knowing the reports, the service of the doctor and the staff members were on standards with no compliant. We always will have our gratitude for Dr. Sheela Chakravarthy.Thank you doctor!
