A feed back on Dr. Murthy? This is not my first visit (2nd Jan 2020) to his clinic.
I have known Dr. Murthy since 1985, when he was a bidding doctor at the Railway Hospital, Chennai. Even then he proved his mettle. When Echo machines were being introduced, not well known, or used, he diagnosed a lypoma in the left ventricle of my brother, just by physical examination with a stethoscope. His other colleagues found nothing amiss. So much for his professional skills.
His devoted care of my other relatives, I cannot forget, without gratitude.
His clinic is well organized despite the rush and clutter free. To cut down on long hours of waiting, I was asked to book my appointment well in advance and given a definite time slot for the next visit. Thoughtful arrangement. The people manning the reception are simple and function with quiet grace without affectation.
I have known Dr. Murthy as a good human being, simple and forthright who does not forget his acquaintances however small, like me.
I cherish his association and wish him long life and happiness, and laurels in his profession.

I suggest please visit this doctor if you have any heart related issue. These days it is very hard to find ethical doctors and Dr JSN sir is very ethical and do not suggest unnecessary treatments . I was so helpless when I went to him for second opinion when my father had a massive heart attached and was admitted to Apollo. He was the only one who suggested to let him rest at home and than to be taken care what has to be done next . But I could not listen to him as doctors in Apollo scared me hell and my dad went through hell in the next two and half months on bed and finally he gave up and left this earth. Till date I regret for not listening to this doctor and taking a Brave decision .Atleast my dad would have left peacefully without a scar on his body.

I am so blessed to know you, have you as my doctor and eternally grateful to you, Dr.Murthy JSN for all the care you have been giving me for the last 6-7 years. Your compassionate attention and professional care has been saving my life. I haven't seen a doctor, who, in the midst of hectic schedule is so approachable, competent, warm and calm. Also you cut down on the unnecessary quantum of drugs and prescribe just the right numbers. Never have you suggested unnecessary tests during my regular visits but only consider if it is only required right away. Also you believe in shared decision-making process and inform me of the options, if any, and then we sort together. I will always be grateful for the additional years of life that your care has allowed me to enjoy. I am able to spend little more time on this wonderful planet.

The Doctor use to smile at Patients, and Show his kind ness with them,
If a patient goes for treatment with him
The waiting time is too much
Say 3hours,
My suggestion to him is to hand over atoken to the Patients with appointment, and with out appointment with 2different kind of cour and the number marked
On that.
If two people with appointment is not turning up the the people out side his room should send the the patients with out appointment.
The staff and the doctor should plan how many patients he can see in four hours and give appontment to those people only.
Some times the i fluin ial people are also goin in by disturbing .
Others.
The se are my suggestion.

Dr.Murthy is one of those docs who is easily approachable and very patient in hearing out our health issues. He does not drug the patients unnecessarily and does not request for unnecessary investigations. With the right diagnosis and minimal drug prescription he is easily the best in the field and is very humane. To top it all his fee is very reasonable and it's value for the money we pay. I would any day strongly recommend this Cardiologist to all who are in search for one. He's been my Cardiologist for over 15 years. The only hitch is that the wait time on many occasions is more than a couple of hours.

Least expected a reputed Doctor of his stature can be so friendly patient n so attentive to every issue. So suave in approach to patients n never give a feeling of fear of disease to patients n at the same time firm in his opinion these are qualities rarely found in him.
Considering the time he takes to diagnosis every patient a small waiting time cannot be n should not be discussed at all.
Hats off to him.
