He is very patient, friendly at patients. He can speak Telugu too. Hospital premises are not good, doesn't have parking. It looks like a clinical hospital, We don't find super specialty hospital atmosphere. But, charges are same as corporate hospital.

Doctor 's method of dealing with the patient is very good and diagnosis is apt. He thinks about the patient's financial status also and accordingly he charges for the treatment. His experience counts a lot. Thank you.
