Happy with: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for moneyWait time
My mom(Poongothai SS) who is 63 years old was suffering from Ankle pain for last 4 years. We consulted many doctors & tried various treatment but no luck. Finally met our beloved Dr.Balamurugan, who diagnosed the exact issue & then he slowly started the treatment and suggested surgery (Talonavicular Joint Fusion). Also Dr & his team ensured that mom had a smooth prep, surgery and follow-up. We are so glad that we choose Dr.Balamurugan and always grateful to him. It’s rare to find a doctor that combines such a truly personal touch and care for a Patient as a great human with outstanding quality of medical care. Few more months to go for my mom to get rid of this severe pain (already she is feeling the difference and happily said that her foot alignment is in shape now while walking with a support) since she had a surgery a month ago. No words to express thanks to Doctor. We highly recommend Dr.Balamurugan in Ortho field as we rare to find patient friendly with lot of patience and care in this fastest world.
