Gleneagles Hospitals, Kengeri

I visited the Gleneagles hospital for a knee injury. After my first consultation was at Padma Clinic & Ortho Center, Tejaswini Nagar. The doctor there asked me to get an MRI. He told me it was a complete ACL tear and said I needed immediate surgery, even though the MRI report stated ACL partial tear. I was worried, so a friend advised me to take a second opinion from Dr. Basavaraju.

Dr. Basavaraju and his interns examined my knee for about fifteen minutes. They asked detailed questions. The doctor then sent me for an X‑ray to understand the real condition of my knee.

After the X‑ray, he told me I was absolutely fine and that there was no need for surgery. He spent more than twenty minutes explaining my condition and restored my confidence. I am truly grateful to him and his team.

He explained things clearly. He told me that what I need right now is to strengthen my leg muscles. He advised exercises and stretching for recovery. His guidance was practical and reassuring.

Everyone with joint issues should consult Dr. Basavaraju. His energy, attention, and approach show that we still have doctors who genuinely care about people’s health.

I feel lucky that I escaped an unnecessary surgery suggested by Padma Clinic. The contrast in care was clear. I’m thankful I met the right doctor at the right time.

I am an aerospace engineer. When working on an aircraft propeller equipment in the lab, the propeller rotating at very high RPM , I accidentally touched the blade and my right index and muddled fingers were almost dismembered. The middle finger was just hanging by the skin. I was immediately rushed to BGS hospital in Kengeri and was attended by Dr Manjunath and Dr Naveen Kumar H R. To examine the severity, X ray was done.

In the x ray it was noticed that my upper part of the middle finger bone was shattered, lower part was cut, index finger was fractured and both the finger nails were missing. The doctors immediately performed a very critical finger reconstructive surgery and joined the middle finger. K wires were inserted in both the fingers and was advised bed rest for a month atleast. It’s been three months now and the fingers are healing very well and I’m able to do most of the tasks. I very much thank Dr Naveen and his team for his utmost efforts in performing the most critical surgery in time and saving my fingers.

My father had a burning sensation near chest and was having breathing issues while walking steps. We visited Dr Nagesh Sir at BGS Hospital based on our family's relative recommendation. Nagesh sir listened to all my father issues and went through all medical records. Sir advised us to do Echo & TMT tests. TMT results came strongly positive, sir advised to test Angiogram. Angiogram reports were showing multiple blocks in all arteries and advised us to go for bypass surgery. My father had a heart attack just before operation & many issues after operation as well. But Nagesh Sir gave us confidence, he really took great care of my father & step by step he pulled my father out of many dangers . Now my father is recovering & he is doing really well it's all due to Nagesh sir's help. Sir You are truly a remarkable doctor and professional that our family respect and trust. We really enjoy your personality. Words could never express our gratitude for all you did and continue to do for my father.

Dear Dr. Krishna Shama Rao Sir,

I wanted to sincerely thank you for the exceptional care and surgical precision you provided during my recent procedure.

Going into a surgery involving all four wisdom teeth — with lower roots in direct contact with the nerve, and an additional cyst near my upper front tooth — was honestly overwhelming. I was especially anxious about the risk of nerve damage. But your detailed planning, calming approach, and expert execution made all the difference.

Your decision to carefully section each tooth and even divide the roots showed how much you prioritized safety and precision over speed. I truly appreciate the time and care you took to protect the inferior alveolar nerve, especially given how high-risk the case was.

I’m relieved and grateful to say that I can feel my lip, chin, and tongue normally, and I know that’s because you went the extra mile at every step.

I also want to thank you for handling the cyst removal with such precision. Knowing that was taken care of thoroughly and safely adds immense peace of mind.

Thank you again — not just for your surgical excellence, but for the way you made me feel informed, respected, and cared for. I feel truly fortunate to have been in your hands.

With sincere gratitude,

Abhishek Kumar

I met Dr. Naveen Kumar for, 1st time with my friend whose MOM was admitted due to a small accident. Her face was completely damaged on one side. The doctor treated her in such a way that, we cant identify any marks on her face. Based on this I wanted to meet him for my ENT and cardiac-related issue. He was so humble and introduced ENT Dr. Prashant Reddy and Cardiologist Dr. Ravindra Reddy. All are very kind persons and give an honest opinion. Especially I would like to say thanks to Dr. Naveen for his humanity and for helping nature. We really want such doctors in Bangalore. Thanks, Dr. Naveen Sir.

Initially my father was feeling very tired and very weak. So we had to check with local doctor and after checking the heart rate, they immediately told to check with cardiology.

After we visit to another local cardiologist, he said my father's heart rate is more than 180 and need immediate admission to hospital.

They treated to reduce the heart rate and reduce water content near heart. But after a month still again my father was very weak and bad than before. Post on suggestion of my relative. we reached to Nagesh sir in Sparsh hospital.

Nagesh Sir, was very friendly and help us immediately and asked us to admit in the hospital for treatment.

within 2days in hospital, my father started felling better and recovering.

Now its been more than a week, my father is feeling well and recovering.

We are very much thankful to Nagesh sir.

Dr. Nagesh Basavaraj performed an exceptional Aortic Valve Replacement surgery on my mother(senior citizen aged 74), through open-heart procedure.His diagnosis was the best, and he listened well to our concerns, providing a detailed and clear explanation. Throughout the process, he was very approachable and remained calm, composed, humble and patient. He fearlessly took choices in tough situations, yet remained cautious and calculated in his approach. He instilled confidence in both patient and the family members. His ability to simplify complex medical jargon and offer a comprehensive understanding of the surgery set him apart.We highly recommend Dr.Nagesh Basavaraj.We are grateful for the honest and exceptional care provided by Dr. Nagesh Basavaraj and his team.

(Note: Iam writing this review almost 10months after the surgery. He is doing a very thorough care post surgery. )
