Consulted Dr. Naveen Chandra G S (Interventional Cardiologist) for Heart Conditions
Happy with:Â Treatment satisfactionDoctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issue
I visited Dr.Naveen Chandra for my 76 year old mother on Dec 2019 when she had difficulty walking even a few steps. She was 100kgs and there was edema in both legs. The doctor did an Echo and diagnosed severe PASP along with other age related heart problems and immediately put her on higher dose of diuretics. He did not rush us into admission. Although we were a new patient, the doctor was reachable on phone for clarification and on whatsapp thereafter to keep a close tab on blood work to adjust dosages. Today, my mother has shed all that excess fluid and is on a steady dose of medicines. Her quality of life has improved, thanks to Dr.Naveen Chandra.
I very strongly recommend Dr Naveen Chandra. His calming demenaour immediately put my mother at ease. He genuinely listened to everything that my mother had to say and did not belittle any of her complaints. While the doctor kept it real to me and my brother about my mother’s condition, that she cannot take in surgical interventions, he did not give up on her. He reassured my mother that she will get better with medicines.
My mother had twice been hospitalized in a prominent hospital and all I remember is doctors would often go ‘she has too many problems’, and a sympathetic hollow gaze. We felt very helpless. Contrast this to meeting Dr. Naveen who was reassuring with the patient, realistic with us and spot-on with the treatment as the results show.
Hats off to such compassionate and equally competent doctors in these times.

Dr. Naveen Chandra is himself a brand that it becomes needless to explain our experience. However, for greater good of the public it's important that we share our experience.
My father had an acute myocardial infarction few days back which we were not aware about. The day I met him after few days I noticed he had breathing issues. When we rushed him to Columbia hospital doctors informed us of his condition and that they cannot assure us anything.
Thanks to Dr. Naveen's expertise that my father recovered so fast. Most of the expert doctors were of the opinion that open heart surgery is the only go for my father. But Dr. Naveen turned this major surgery down, he handled the situation with angioplasty and this gave my father a speedy recovery and a normal life now. Through the entire period he was so comforting with us. His humbleness, kind attitude, empathy and hard work has made us indebted to him forever.
No matter how late it is in night, any issue Dr. Naveen is available at the next available moment making us aware of the condition and the next step. I cannot expect more. Even now when we meet him for regular check up, he meet us in the same way. Any emergency no matter what time it is on the clock he replies our call, messages. Always reachable.
We are fortunate to have a doctor like him. We wish him all success and good fortune in his life.
Consulted Dr. Praveen C R (General Surgeon) for Fistulectomy
Happy with:Â Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issue
I am 37 yrs, male. I live and work in USA for the past decade. I visited Dr Praveen CR (Columbia Asia Hospital, Whitefield Office) in Feb 2020, concerned about a posterior protrusion during a visit to my parents in India. Dr, Praveen diagnosed it to be a Fistula in the very first meeting and advised me to promptly undergo surgery to stop its further spread. I am glad I did. After a successful minor surgery, I am gradually recovering and feel relieved from an ailment plaguing me for 2 years. My decision to undergo, treatment, and subsequent hospital were made easy by the following:
1. His in depth knowledge about the issue. In the very first meeting, he put me to rest by illustrating the issue on a paper and explaining my many different questions. In my experience, the conversation was as in depth as with a specialist doctor in USA.
2. He never rushed my visit or made me wait. Meeting him each time has been very pleasant and polite. This has led to better doctor-patient bond.
3. He accommodate my concern of return to USA and personally helped schedule the operation on time
4. His tone with me has been re-assuring from the start. Surgery did scare me and my folks. But his tine and confidence and expert advice made all the different.
5. His bedside manner are the best I have seen among all doctors so far. He is respectful, sensitive to cultural concerns. I would not hesitate to take my family members for future visits.
6. He did not hospitalize me after surgery unnecessarily. Thus a saving me time, and hospital costs. I was discharged after the same day after a review
7. He was easy to reach out to and schedule an appointment with. He was there for my visit even though most doctors refused to come hospital due to COVID scare.
For me, he is a textbook definition of good doctor. I would not hesitate to visit or refer him based on my experience of Fistula surgery. Thumbs up for knowledge, accessibility, empathy and friendly manner of consultation

Little more than a year ago, we found out through routine tests that my dad needed an urgent surgery to remove blockages near his heart when we came to know about Dr Naveen. Given the urgent nature of issue, my dad was immediately admitted and Dr Naveen started working on his treatment and surgery.
Looking back, we couldn't have hoped for better outcome to my dad health and my family cannot thank Dr Naveen enough. Not only did Dr Naveen perform surgery well, he did it by mentally preparing my dad that gave him confidence to go in surgery room and more importantly kept open communication with my entire family and updated us at each and every step of the process, explained pros/cons of different procedures that helped us make informed decisions as family member of patient.
Writing this review a year later and we are still in touch with Dr and get our queries, questions answered.
