Satisfied with Doctor's diagnosis. It was my visit to get second opinion about my health records. During my visit to a leading hospital in this city to get first opinion with my health records(the same one), the senior doctor in that hospital told me to get admitted to have angiogram within 24 hours. But I was sure that, nothing is wrong with my health. So I decided to have second opinion with Dr. Amal ji.
