My father suffered a stroke and we had immediately rushed him to the hospital. My father was in almost healthy and talkative condition when we rushed him to the hospital. But they showed us an MRI scan and told us surgery had 50-50 chances. We were like please go ahead and they gave him blood thinners. Later they do the surgery *** *** ********* ****** ************* **** ***** **** ************ *** *** ** *********** *** ******** *** *** **** *** Then they told that brain had developed a swelling and since dad was on blood thinners there was external bleeding happening. * ********* ******* *** ****** ********** ** ******** ********** **** ********* *** ***** *** **** *** * **** *** *** *** ******* ******** Please don't go to this person, **** **** ***** *** ** *** ***** ** **** ******* ** *** ****** ** ******* *** **** ** **** **** ********

My Mother was diagnosed with a very rare case of Neurological problem, called as "Cavernous Carotid Fistula" (CCF) when she was in Pune, Its only because of Dr Santosh N Us Confidence, I flied from Pune to Bangalore based on My Cousins feedback Dr Jothi (Neurological department at Aster)
We are so thankful to Dr Santosh NU & His entire team for successful operation, and brining so much of confidence in My mother & our entire family.

Strongly recommend Dr Santosh N U for all such cases.
