Happy with: Explanation of the health issueDoctor friendlinessTreatment satisfactionWait time
I went for treating my wheezing and sinus issues. He is one of the very few doctors who doesn't write scans and other tests unnecessarily. If we follow his medicines properly you are sure to get relieved. I have searched for many pulmonologists. I am sticking on to his consultation for the last 15 yrs.
My daughter was asked to undergo tonsils and adenoids operation. He was the only dr who asked not to operate. Its been 2yrs and thank God my daughter survives with no complications. He is one such doctor who doesn't make his living out of patients' fear. May God bless u long life for the service u provide to the community.
Visited For Chest Disease Treatment
First day, we booked for an appointment and were on the way to the hospital as we stay pretty far from hospital and it was raining heavily. And the appointment was cancelled because the. Doctor was busy with a surgery and it was not intimated to us by hospital, we came to know about it when we called to cross check. Poor responsiveness. On the second day, we scheduled again and waited for around 45minutes and the doctor did not turn up and he was very far away in another hospital as per hospital reception.
And if you please the timings in practo's page, the timings clash with two hospitals.
I suggest the doctor to stop seeing patients at Ponmalligai Hospital as there is proper communication to patients on when he will arrive and patients with severe illness wait in optimism for the doctor to turn up. Thank you.
