Dr. Smitha Kumar

She’s is so kid friendly explains everything really well, we are happy with her treatments and medicines she prescribes.

very nice experience. she is cool and clam. Her ********* ** ********* *** line of treatment is also very responsive.

Dr.Smitha is always ready to assist and support. She hears you out patiently and provides relevant details and guides you in the right direction given your condition or situation.

Dr Smitha is well learned, very patient and clarifies all the doubts. I was also satisfied about how she suggested some home remedies instead of medicines and also helped with feeding positions as a lactation consultant would do. However introduction of naan and solid foods advice could be better. By 2 months I was told to introduce naan as top up bcoz feeding time was very long - 20 to 40 mins. By 4 months I was told that ideal breastfeeding time is only 5 mins else it means that the baby is not getting sufficient milk. Baby's weight gain n pee counts were very good n indicated sufficient mother's milk. I was adviced to start solids by 4.5 months n I was given sachets of ragi porridge and rice porridge sold by a vendor. I feel a doctor should not advice packed foods n should be strict about only giving moms milk and home made porridge. All other doctors I saw later said it's very common for babies to feed for 40 to 50 mins and I can wait to complete 6 months for starting solid food.
