Patient Stories for Dr. Chandrasekar K
My mother in law had health issue so we went to hospital. Doctor was fine, he was not that informative and was not able to answer questions properly. I am 40- 50 percent satisfied with consultation. Doctor was asking why you went for advanced treatment, we are not that much satisfied with consultation. My mother-in-law had internal swelling, we are unable to know what's issue and doctor didn't tell us. There was not much waiting time in the hospital when we went.
