Apollo Hospital

I visited Bengaluru in the month of October 2022 and after consultation with one of the doctors of Basanthnagar locality's hospital, it was suggested that the set up of a stent was extremely necessary and inevitable. I was totally astonished as there were no such symptoms at all. Even regarding my vericose vein problem, there were no problems of itching, swelling or clotting etc.

Then one of my friend of Astra Zeneca gave me his reference and during consultation he elaborately described all the procedures. He almost did the colour droppler test in presence of my wife and friend himself without charging a penny. Thereafter he also drew the blood circulation path of the lower part of our body and vividly described the necessity of the stent.

Last but not the least he told us about the procedure of Angiogram and informed us that just before the operation he would perform the Angiogram test and if any blockage was detected, he would opt for its removal via the balloon treatment unless the blockage is too severe.

We were very happy with his detailed explanation and made up our mind to be operated under him.

On 18.11.22. i.e. on the date of operation and after the Angiogram, the Doctor informed me that there was no blockage, the dye was flowing very smoothly and thus there was no need for the placement of any stent. I was fully relaxed before my varicose vein operation through Laser Technology.

Now after the operation, on that very day I was able to walk slowly at late night and the recovery process is going on smoothly. On 25.11.22 after final check up with the doctor S.Narasimhan, we returned to Kolkata.

I sincerely convey my gratitude to Dr. S.Narasimhan, Dr Manju ( his Junior ) and his whole team ( I apologize for not being able to recollect their names ) for their excellent work and strongly recommend this Doctor and his team for varicose vein related problems.

Dr Narasimhan is very friendly, approachable, and always gives ample time to his patient and relatives to clear any persisting doubts. And most important thing is that most of the time he himself takes up the job irrespective of it being a colour droppler test or a simple task of bandaging.

Only thing I would like to add here is that there is a need of operation clips and hope that infrastructure will be developed by Apollo Bannerghatta Unit in near future.

I again thank Dr. Narasimhan and his team for their excellent work. May their skillful work gets known to a wider audience and prosper.

My experience with Dr. Rajashekhar KT (Orthopaedic Surgeon) and his team of doctorsat Apollo Hospital, Bannerghatta, Bangalore for my revision knee replacement (right knee) has been exceptional and heart warming.I had my Total Knee Replacement (both the knees) in 2017. The surgery was successful but I had complications during post-op surgery care which required another procedure to insert plates and rods which were later removed due to spread of swelling and infection. The swelling and pain over time became worse and made the mobility of my right leg very difficult. I wanted to know  the next course of action as there was a lack of clarity on what can be done to fix my right leg and gain my mobility. I wanted to consult a surgeon here in Bengaluru who could guide me on the right set of next steps and answer my concerns and queries. After quite a bit of research and discussions with family, I met Dr. Rajashekhar K T at Apollo Hospital. My first meeting with him convinced me that I am in good hands. He gave a detailed explanation of what’s wrong and what the surgery would entail and assured me that the revision surgery although complicated isn’t a critical one. He is always willing to hear patient's concerns and addresses them timely. He understands his patient's frame of mind and makes sure that his patient gets the best care possible. His professionalism, expertise and compassionate approach are truly commendable. The confidence, comfort and assurance that I got from Dr. Rajashekhar is something that I didn't get from few other knee specialists whom I met before consulting Dr.RajashekharThanks for performing a successful Revision Knee Replacement surgery. The post operative physio care and rehabilitation under Doctor's advice is also very satisfying.I would also like to express my gratitude to the team of Doctors starting with -Dr. Srinivasa Holla (Anesthesiologist) for going through all my previous medical history and examining all the medicines that I was taking and suggesting me on what can be continued and what needs to be stopped. All these would not be possible if you hadn't taken extra care with my several year medical history and conditions. Thanks for attending on me during the surgery with utmost care.Dr. Anil for the initial examination of my right leg condition and patiently listening to my knee medical history and suggesting the required diagnostic reports and Dr. Jyothsna, physician for the utmost care.We are also grateful to Dr.Bhat and Dr.Kartik who interacted with us, leading to the surgery.Dr. Anandu and Dr. Abdul (Physiotherapists) and all other physiotherapists who helped me walk after post-op, giving attention to flexibility and workability and taught me all the necessary exercises.Dr. Rekha (Physician Associate) who helped me with all the consultations and attended to all my concerns, doubts and queries I had regarding the treatment, surgery, post-op care.Kalpagam Viswanathan

If you have any symptoms of ‘Varicose Veins’ or any ‘Vascular’ related problems, I would definitely suggest you meet ‘Dr. Sunder’ once & believe me you will feel much better & relieved after listening to him!

I had started observing some blood clots on my feet & veins getting swollen hence started visiting for remedies. A few of the specialists suggested medications & a few of them suggested I change my lifestyle so it won’t worsen. After meeting a few specialists I wasn’t very sure to get a proper solution since the right foot was not recovering but worsening. This used to make me worried & then I learned about ‘Dr. Sunder’.

One fine day I visited him, he observed my legs for a moment, scanned the same with some instrument/machine & shown me an exact problem that is causing the blood collection/leak in the feet & explained well to make me understand the problem that is causing Veins-swelling\blood-leaking & along with the problem he also suggested me that the ‘Laser Treatment’ is the optimal solution for it.

I was very impressed with the confidence Dr. Sunder showed me during observation. He made me believe that it is not any major thing & he can get me out of it easily. I took an appointment a week later for ’Laser Treatment’ & undergone the same. I was admitted only for one day & the next day I walked out of the hospital on my own.

Post-treatment, I visited him a couple of times for review. Every time I used to go for review; I used to carry a list of questions about my day-to-day activities & everything he used to listen & answer patiently.

I am really impressed with him & feel very confident after the treatment. I cannot thank him enough in words.

THANK YOU very much DR. SUNDER for being there!

Dr.Sundar Narsiman – a magical vascular surgeon – Patient –Naaz Parveen

I, Naaz Parveen was suffering from varicose veins in the leg. I had consulted many vascular surgeons in Bangalore but they suggested me to wear stockings and they prescribed me have painkillers but I had no relief. I decided to go to USA. There I went to the clinic by name – Accredited clinic, Vascular Testing Faculty, Philadelphia, USA. The vascular surgeons suggested the latest technology, glue vein seal procedure. Again I had consulted many vascular surgeons in Bangalore but no relief. Then I consulted one of my relative doctors in USA who is a vascular surgeon. She suggested me to contact Dr. Sundar narsimhan who is one of the best vascular surgeons in her opinion , who is practicing at Apollo hospital Bannerghata road Bangalore. I consulted him, he examined and scanned my leg which had signs of vascular veins and showed me the exact cause of vascular veins and he heard me with patience about my complaints of itching, burning,skin irritation and sleepless nights due to pain. He suggested me that the latest technology of glue vein seal procedure and I was convinced for the treatment. I was admitted in the hospital at 9.00 am, the procedure was done at 2.00 pm and I was discharged at 5.00 pm after completing the hospital formalities. I walked out of the hospital on my own without any problems and I was surprised as if some miracle happened to me. I can say it happened due to the magical hands of Dr. Sunder Narsimhan.I can call him a miraculous vascular surgeon. I pray for his health and long life. I request patients who are suffering from varicose veins to get his services and relief from his magical hands. Thank you doctor Sundar Narsimhan

I would like to thank Dr. Sunder Narasimhan for performing excellent surgery on my mother's limbs which was diagnosed for Bilateral lover limb varicose veins.

I had previously visited a reputed hospital for an annual health checkup for my mother who is 68 years old. Along with it we had checked on the discoloring (skin turning dark-black) near the ankles and foot. We were suggested to perform the Doppler Scan which further diagnosed to Lower Limb Varicose Veins, which needed an immediate surgery. But we weren't too confident on the surgeons in that reputed hospital, although they were the ones who identified it but then identification is one thing and performing a 100% surgery was something I was not confident about.

I came back home and started to search for Vascular Surgeons online and among a few I came across Dr. Sunder Narasimhan. I started to read about him, his experience, his accomplishments and mostly the reviews about him. I had a strong positive hunch about him and I knew my search ended here. I took an appointment with him for the very next day, consulted him with my mother along with the reports. He then suggested EVLT which was painless procedure and explained us in detail as to how it would be done and what would be the post surgery process and reactions if any.

Considering my mother had no issues with BP, diabetics or any other health issues we decided to go for the surgery the very next day and got my mother admitted.

The surgery went extremely well, I had full faith in the doctor and which is why the waiting period during the surgery was a little less stressful.

The surgery went for about 1.5 hours with additional 2-3 hours of waiting period in the OT as the local anesthesia had to wear out and my mother had to come in conscious. She had a slight pain though in the operated area but otherwise she was completely fine.

We got discharged the very next day, and a follow-up consolation in 3 days, my mom was asked to continue wearing the stockings for few weeks and she was asked to not take rest and keep walking and keep getting hydrated all the time.

Lastly, if it is a vascular surgery and if you have any doubts in the surgeon then Dr. Sunder Narasimhan is the one you need, hands down, full points for him for the way him and his team conducted themselves from the start till the end.

Thank you very much doctor, from both me and my mom. God bless you.

I was so impressed by your attention to detail and your concern for my comfort and safety throughout the entire process. You made me feel supported and well cared for, and I could not have asked for a better experience. Your commitment to excellence is second to none, and I am truly grateful.

Post-operation recovery is going very well, and I wanted to thank you and your team for your outstanding care during my surgery.

I am so grateful for your dedication to my health and well-being, and I thank you immensely for the care you provided.

Surgeons and Doctors: To the skilled hands that mended my heart, thank you. You and your team's precision, dedication, and commitment to excellence are commendable. You not only performed a life-saving procedure but also gave me hope for a healthier future.

During the middle of August, I was diagnosed with acute ischemia in the right foot. I immediately got myself admitted to St Johns hospital. The illness affected my right leg toe and four fingers. There was further delay and dilemma ** *** ** ***** ******** which led to further delay in medical attention and the condition of my foot was worsening. Subsequently unhappy with the medical attention being met out, We decided to move out ** ** ***** ********* ** **** ******* ** ** ** ******** **** ********* ** ******** ******** ******* * ******** *** *** ******** ** *** ******** **** ******** we were told to amputate the entire leg from above the knee. This observation was made even without proper examination of the limb. ** * **** ****** *********** ***** ** ***** ** ******** **** ******** we decided to consult Dr Sunder Narasimhan. After examining the limb, He immediately decided to take me into surgery without any further delay. He did an Angiogram and installed a stent in the right limb and amputated the dead cells and a small part of my right foot. He also pulled out a lot of clots from my right leg. This quick action on part of Dr Sunder Narasimhan led to a major part of my right limb being saved from further amputation. After continuous treatment and under the supervision of Dr Sunder Narasimhan, My right leg is well on the way to recovery. If vascular surgeons were to recommend only amputation of the limbs without actually studying/understanding the complete picture, many people will be without limbs. It is because of doctors like Dr Sunder Narasimhan that several patients manage to save their limbs from being amputated.I am always grateful for the services rendered by Dr Sunder Narasimhan and for saving my limb from being completely amputated.

This is an opinion on my experience with the treatment of Dr. K T Rajashekar, Orthopedic Surgeon in Apollo Hospital Bannergatta, Bangalore.

I had taken my aunt who was experiencing acute pain in both the knees. On the suggestion of the doctor, we got Full Knee Replacement done through Dr. K T Rajashekar.

I would like to express my profound gratitude for Dr. K T Rajashekar and his team of doctors including the doctors of other related areas (Physicians, Anesthetists, Physiotherapists) and the nursing including support and logistics team for their excellent treatment / services.

Dr. Rajashekar is very kind and patiently answered to all our queries, explained the process and requirements very clearly. He made us very comfortable and then he conducted the knee operations for both the legs in a gap of 3 days. The operation was very successful and my aunt did not undergo severe pain during recovery as normally complained by others.

One month since the operation, she is now able to walk normally and able to climb the steps. She did not experience any severe pain post operation and now is almost normal.

The coordination among his team and also doctors of other related areas is of very high standard and a simple message to anyone of them would be attended with all seriousness by the entire team. On staying with my aunt in the hospital for this operation until discharge, I could see all the doctors very treating very nicely by giving all the required comfort level to the patient. His Physician Assistant Ms Rekha is worth mentioning on a special basis, as she used to visit my aunt at regular intervals and see that all the requirements are attended to. The Anesthesia Specialist (Dr. Srinivas Holla) and the Physiotherapists (specially to Dr. Anandu) attended my aunt very well with all the due care.

Dr. Rajashekar can be said to have magic in hands as I could see a perfectly done operation.

I profoundly thank Dr. Rajashekar and his team of doctors and the nursing team for a very good treatment extended to my aunt.

With deep gratitude,

B. Srinivasa Setty, Hospet

My Mother in law, in Andhra Pradesh was suffering from varicose vein associated problems such as pain through the inside of the legs, around the ankle and feet, which caused severe pain due to blood clots. She can’t be able to walk. She had a lot of difficulty to move around in the house and even had difficulty sleeping through the night. Without help she was unable to walk. After scanning we came to know that blood clotted in nerves. We have consulted few doctors in Tirupati and Kurnool. But no use. They said many blood clots are there in nerves and its already in severe condition need to remove leg.

We started searching for other doctors and gone through many reviews. Luckily, we come to know about Dr. Sundar Narasimhan sir. We thought of seeking the doctor's help and contacted him. The doctor on seeing pictures of the scan reports, asked us to reach Bangalore as soon as possible so that treatment could be started.

In June corona is at its peaks. We have reached hospital around 9PM. We have doubt of getting bed in hospital. But after reaching hospital we come to know that Sundhar sir already informed to reception people and they completed all preliminary check-ups and room also allocated on priority. Immediately next day surgery done, and everything went well. Now she can be able to walk without any help. This happened due to Sundar Narasimhan sir.

I strongly recommend anyone who has Vascular issues to consult Dr. Sunder Narasimha sir. He is very polite and kind-hearted. My sincere note to the Doctor "Thank you, Doctor, You, and your Team have done miracles to my Mother in law’s leg and saved her. We are extremely grateful for you". Hospitality at Apollo hospital Bannerghatta also very nice.
