Dr. Kamalakannan has treated me for gastritis and is also helping me deal with the chronic issue of functional dyspepsia. I am also struggling with a health anxiety disorder which prompts me to be particular about the type of personality I seek in a physician. In addition to highest level of competence in their field, I earnestly seek compassion, patience, listening ability and strong ethics. I am very grateful to Dr. Kamalakannan who embodies all those virtues and for helping me to both clearly understand and overcome physiological & psychological issues that have been plaguing me for a few years now. Practo feedback mechanism helped me to discover him and I thank all patients who gave feedback since this helped me in my search for a suitable gastroenterologist. Through this feedback, I wish to suggest this truly great doctor for anyone seeking an excellent practitioner for consultation & cure. Also, i hail from Mahabalipuram (60km away from chennai) and have done both in person and video consultation with the doctor. I appreciate that i could consult from home when appropriate.
