The doctor clearly explained the situation and listened to the patient's history carefully. However, the patient felt somewhat dissatisfied as the consultation was brief and mainly involved a referral to another specialist. The clinic's waiting time was a bit long, but overall the experience was acceptable.

I would like to express my profound gratitude to Dr. Krishen Ranganath.
He is truly a remarkable and transformative healer. Words cannot adequately describe his impact on my life.
My Problems:
For the past seven years, I have suffered from heartburn, belching, and reflux. Despite daily use of PPIs, my endoscopy and scans consistently showed normal results, and a full-body check-up revealed no issues. Additionally, I have experienced intermittent sleeping problems over the past two years. I consulted numerous well-known gastroenterologists, both locally and in Australia, but found no relief. I also tried various alternative medicines, all to no avail. While PPIs managed only my heartburn, my digestion did not improve, and I continued to struggle with belching and reflux, which caused significant discomfort. My dependence on PPIs was a constant concern.
My Lifestyle:
I am a teetotaller, abstaining from tea and coffee. I practice yoga, meditation, exercise regularly, and enjoy running and fast walking. I avoid oily foods, chat, and bakery items, and have adhered to a vegan diet for the past three years. Looking very slim and fit. I do not use social media or game apps as well.
Although I followed a healthy lifestyle, my problems remained unresolved. No medication provided a cure. Realizing I needed psychiatric treatment, I consulted Dr. Krishen.
Consultation:
During my first consultation, Dr. Krishen spent almost an hour with me. He made me feel so comfortable and listened to all my problems with great patience. He asked numerous questions about my personal, professional, and social life, gaining a comprehensive understanding of my history. His meticulous note-taking skills were evident as he recorded even the smallest details.
Medication and Improvements:
Dr. Krishen prescribed some medications, and within one week, I noticed significant improvements and magic.
My heartburn, belching, and reflux disappeared. I no longer needed PPIs or antacids, and my digestion improved dramatically. I now feel capable of digesting even the most challenging foods. I can eat without worrying about any adverse consequences.
I am also able to sleep soundly every night before 10 PM.
I am now on cloud nine, and my treatment is progressing excellently.
Benefits:
Overall, I am very healthy now. I have regained my optimistic outlook, self-confidence, and self-reliance. I have also rekindled my old habits of reading, writing, and engaging in various activities. My cognitive skills have improved significantly.
Final Thoughts:
Dr. Krishen is an exceptional doctor capable of addressing a wide range of issues. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of psychiatric treatment. He is jovial, friendly, charming and always has a smile on his face.
Dr. Krishen is the best example of the Thirukural couplet 948.
"Disease, its cause, what may abate the ill: Let leech examine these, then use his skill"
Meaning:
This couplet emphasizes the importance of a thorough examination by a physician, who must understand the disease, its cause, and the appropriate treatment before applying their expertise to cure it.
