Consulted Dr. Umesh Srikantha (Neurosurgeon) for Cervical & Lumbar Disc Surgeries
Happy with:Â Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for moneyWait time
Dr Umesh Shrikanta and his whole team is a team of genius doctors. Mine was the case of extrusion / herniation causing severe lower back pain and right leg function failure. I underwent "minimal invasive microdiscectomy" surgery which is performed with latest equipments and the most advanced spinal surgery. The same day of surgery they made me stand and walk 5 steps with support. The next day I was walking normally and walked for an hour :) yes you read it right I walked for an hour :-). I am thankful to the medical researchers and implementers who made it possible to have just an inch of cut at my back with no stitch and fetched out the problem causing nucleus that came out of my l4 l5 disc causing anular tear and also caused 85% nerve compression. I am a 33 years old lady having 2 kids and my younger one is 3 years old. In such a situation I got a spinal attack on 21st June 2020 morning 5:30 am. I was unable to move any body part except my hands and the pain was so severe that it made me almost unconscious. I did bed rest for 4 days washroom activities also on bed and then realised its not possible in my case with 2 kids and such severe case of herniation which does not guarantee normal life after 3 months of bed rest too and hence we decided to go for surgery. I came to know about Dr Umesh senior neurosurgeon and head of spinal surgery in Aster cmi from my jijaji Dr Himanshu a senior knee replacement surgeon in Shelvi hospital Ahmedabad. They met in national conferences. Great and intelligent minds :). Dr Umesh and his team explained me my anatomy and problem thoroughly clearing all my doubts. The physiotherapy team, team of dietician and nursing staff was a brownie point. Today is 29th June 2020. I am walking and going home with smile and confidence. It was a miracle I will always remember in my life.

We met Dr. GKT Iyer when it was known that my father has to undergo By-Pass surgery. At very first meeting, he explained the condition as in which cases By-Pass surgery would be required and further explained all queries and concerns that patient's family go through.
Dr. GKT Iyer has great patience to convey all required information in detail and also good listener about our concerns and queries. Further he makes sure we don't have any doubts / queries left unattended and address all concerns with utmost kindness.
Dr. GKT Iyer being the chief surgeon is very down to earth and so kind that whoever stops his way for any query, he would respond politely and offloads your worries & tension.
Dr. GKT Iyer and his team is really great with their expertise and the ease of handling critical cases brings lot of positivity and hopes to both patient and family. Finally, all that I have to say is -- "If surgery will be performed by Dr. Iyer then just think that your HEART is in SAFEST HANDS".
Hats off to Dr. GKT Iyer and his amazing team!
Consulted Dr. Vinay Bhat (GastroIntestinal Surgeon) for Gallbladder Surgery
I would highly recommend Dr Vinay Bhat.
I underwent gallbladder removal surgery under him. Around eight months ago I knew I needed surgery as was suffering with excruciating pain .I met with couple of surgeons and couldn’t make up my mind . i happened to be in Bangalore during the lockdown .Not able to withstand the painful attacks I finally settled on meeting Dr Bhat . My first meeting with Dr Bhat went very well and I knew right there that I am making the best choice without any apprehensions .This inner intuition was very important for me to kick in .Dr Bhat is a true professional,************* *** possesses all the technical capabilities as far as skill goes. He answered every query with a lot of patience and understanding.Not feeling rushed in our conversation and being completely satisfied with my concerns and questions with accurate information and knowledge by Dr Bhat lead me to feel confident And felt the wait was well deserved.The surgery went well and so did the recovery ,was able to resume to normal lifestyle in a weeks time post surgery.
Dr Vinay Bhat has rather raised the bar very high and has set a great example of being an ideal doctor / surgeon.Qualities of Dr Bhat are definitely my benchmark to compare to before making Doctor/ surgeon related choices in future .

Dr Ganeshakrishnan Iyer is a superbly competent, efficient and friendly doctor with a history of innovations in surgery. ** ******* ********* *********** ***** ** *********** With him patients come first.
We first met him when my mother needed a triple by-pass surgery. My mom was immediately at ease when she met Dr. Iyer whose compassionate “patient and bedside manners” endears him to all. The surgery was successful and we would like to think that his sensitive and caring interpersonal personality also contributed to a speedy recovery. That was 6 years ago.
Recently my husband needed an aortic valve replacement and we didn't need to think twice about whom to go to. Dr. Iyer spent many considerable hours patiently explaining the procedure, illustrating on a notepad, walking us through animations and videos on the Net, the various options available and also discussing the merits and demerits of the other second, third and many opinions that we got from other doctors! His descriptions and explanations are clear, precise, and unambiguous. His philosophy is to provide as much information as a person and family need to come to a decision by themselves. Finally, it was he who operated on my husband. It is now 6 months and all is well.
We have no hesitation in recommending Dr GKT Iyer at Aster Hospital. He is a gem in our community.

Consulted Dr. Lokesh B (Neurologist)
Consultation experience was good overall, visited for my brother for so some nerve problem, happy with the explanation of health issue given by the doctor, one thing can be improved is when we visited him he was referring us to other doctors in the same hospital he is an experienced doctor but referring to other doctors how many doctors he referred we had to pay them consultation fees everyone doctor waste of money, when I visited him and said I have minor back pain he referred me to general physician said he is not the right person to see. Each doctor consultation fees is different if he couldn’t see he wouldn’t have taken the money unnecessarily charging the consultation fees,doctors behavior was good Overall good
