My thanks are due to the Dr.Vijayskumar , Nephrologist who helped and supported us both physically and morally in all angles at the time of transplantation.

more..Visited For Nephrology ICU
I had a bad experience today trying to consult this doctor. First of all, no one from the hospital knows at what time the doctor would be coming for O/P. After getting transferred thrice finally a person asked me to come as the doctor is present. My father is 71 years old and has to undergo a surgery. He couldn't even walk properly. On top of all this I took him to hospital and there are lot many patients waiting before us. All of sudden the staff came and asked me to show the medicine reports and files. Within two minutes she came out and said that the doctor has lot many O/P to visit and not ready to give appointment for us. Either they should give us some appointment over the phone or through direct consultation. Just sending a patient without any reason is not acceptable. Never this doctor again !! ***** ******** **
