couple of months back we visited Dr. DIPTARKA in Apollo Sarjapur clinic. seeking treatment for my wife’s hoarse voice. I am very impressed with Drs. knowledge, friendliness and his great listening skills. initially he thought it is due to some throat infection and gave medicines for a week. when there is no improvement, he immediately used camera and noticed a RIGHT VOCAL CHORD LESION. we were panic and worried what it could be. this is where great dr. in DIPTARKA came out and he made us not to worry about it and he was in constant touch with us thru whatsapp though he is on vacation after long time. He came back and I met him immediately and again I have seen the great qualities of a great dr. He spent more than 30 mins just to explain what the issue is and when I was apologetic for asking too many questions, he said ‘ Your wife is like my family member. I will explain and answer all your questions in the same way I will explain it to my family member’ I was speechless for his humbleness and treating his patients as his family members. I was very much relieved after hearing him and with no hesitation agreed to go for a surgery to remove the Lesion. I never had a thought of going for a second opinion after he explained me the problem.

He gave me all possible options for the hospitals where we can go for the surgery and finally we choose to go with Apollo Spectra in Koramangala. Dr. really helped us by assigning one coordinator to work with us on the Insurance part. Finally we admitted her after all the pre investigations and Dr. came to us again before the surgery and explained all the details and made us comfortable. He completed the surgery in an hour or so and immediately shared the happy news of successful surgery. He came out with happy face and explained how he performed the surgery. He made us not to stay in hospital more days and asked us to revisit in a weeks time. In all these days he was in continuous touch with me asking about the changes. We revisited him after 10 days and he noticed the surgery part is healing well. he also explained us about the Biopsy report and next steps. He suggested us to go for Voice therapy sessions and connected us to the right Voice Therapist. Right now, my wife is going thru voice therapy sessions and we are hoping she will talk to us loud and clear voice.

I am very thankful to Dr. Diptarka for his kindness , listening skills, detailed explanation, calm mind, helping and many qualities of a great dr. should have. Thank you very much Dr. and we owe you a lot

In the month of May 2022, I felt some pain in the abdomen. So consulted you at Apollo Spectra hospital. You explained and conducted all the necessary Tests and prescribed Surgery for Hernia (Both LH and RH). Pre-operation tests were done and operation date fixed for Tuesday 21st June. We all, (my Co volunteer Ramaswamy, his friend and my cousin brother Nirmal) came and met you on the previous day i.e. 20th June.

You explained nicely the procedure to be done for the Laparoscopic surgery, like small holes, then inserting the mesh by special tools etc. Also, in case a problem arises, then you will adopt the open surgery. You also talked about the Risk factor, if at all it is there, it is the age, As, such nothing was foreseen. All the other doubts, you clarified. You explained clearly in a soft tone, politely. It gave me assurance & lot of mental strength. Post surgery, your regular follow up like, you personally did the dressing, Removal of stitches, and good Nursing Services, helped me recover fast.

My heartfelt thanks to you Doctor, your entire team, Nursing staff and others. Also, I am highly grateful to Smt. Vasuki. Right from the day one she arranged our appointments, coordinated with other personnel like Anesthetist, Physician and other departments necessary to get the fitness for Surgery. Post operation she did all the Discharge formalities, and Processing of Insurance papers precisely and speedily. Thank you Vasuki. Lord bless.

Sir, I pray Lord to bless you and your family a healthy, happy Life.

We are happy that Surgery was successfully done with your deft hands. As he has said, your explanation put the patient and all of us at ease. You belong to a category of good Doctors and also good human beings. Lord bless you and your family a happy healthy life.

I retired as Design engineer in Aeronautics from HAL in 1997. Since then, I am serving in Kidwai, Nimhans, Ramiah and Baptist Hospitals as Volunteer/ Counsellor from Banjara Academy (All the services are free).

I am writing this review almost 2 months after my surgery. I visited Dr. Bhattacharya after my ear drum ruptured and did not heal by itself even after a couple of months. Apart from this I have always suffered from blocked nose, runny nose, sneezing and acute allergy, since childhood.

Doctor patiently listened to all my concerns and before arriving at any conclusion, recommended a couple of tests to fully understand the extent of my issue. Post reviewing all the reports, he finally explained the reason for eardrum rupture and suggested I undergo both tympanoplasty and DNS surgery to curb all my ENT issues at once. Doctor and his team(special mention to Dr. Anushree) very patiently explain all the reason for issues, the surgical procedures involved and post surgery care. He has been always welcoming of the numerous questions I had and made me and my family feel at ease no matter how nervous I was pre or post surgery. It was only due to the confidence I had in him that I went ahead with both the surgeries. I am very happy to feel a difference in my breathing and my ear drum has healed completely.

Every patient's recovery period is different and mine took longer than anticipated. Though both my surgeries were successful, I ran into a little post surgery complication due to my allergy issues. But doctor very patiently helped me through this time and prescribed medications that helped me heal faster. He was always available, no matter the intensity of my worry, and assured me that I will get well soon. So as far as post surgery care is concerned, I would suggest patients to take as much rest as possible and respect the the recovery time the body demands. Rest assured, Dr Bhattacharya is the best doctor one could have asked for in one's treatment journey. Always donning a welcoming smile and positive attitude, Dr. Bhattacharya goes that extra mile for every patient to make their treatment as smooth as possible.
