He was very receptive and patient. We were visiting him as the 4 doctor in contiunation with my treatment and had a lot of past medical history and reports to walk him through. He examined me well, reduced extant medication and scheduled follow up with some new tests. While nothing conclusive was found which is leading to my issues however he was able to assure us that nothing grossly wrong is present either hence alleviating a lot of worry that we had with my digestion, persistent stomach ache and burning sensation, and acidity issues. I will update once i do my entire abdomen ultrasound and confirm basis my next visit. As of now, his medication is not harming me and hence i am happy with it.

Dr. Nirmal Kumar is found to be very friendly. He listens to problems of the patients attentively. He explains the cause of illness and give proper suggestions. He prescribes very limited medicines.
My wife had pain in abdomen with acidity problem. He had advised some alteration in diet and changes in lifestyle. He never asked for any unnecessary tests. His treatment had improved my wife's health condition a lot.
I strongly recommend his name for guidance in gastroenterological problems.
Visited For Abdominal Pain
My mother had to undergo hernia operation at one of the biggest hospital in Delhi, we went to Dr Nirmal to consult about her abdominal pain which didn't go away after operation. Dr Nirmal didn't had any advice and just asked for some expensive tests to be done at venkateshwar hospital, which were twice expensive as compared to other path labs. We visited him again, this time with all the test reports that he recommended and to our surprise, this time he asked us to go and consult the doctor who operated my mother for Hernia. He had no advice, diagnosis or treatment to offer. We were very disappointed with our experience with Dr Nirmal

He is good at what he does but what I did not like was that he rarely explains the problems and gets irritated when you ask him questions. Even when you don't get the medical jargon and ask him about it, he gets irritated. This is my 5th visit to him and I have faced this issue repeatedly. I know there might be some things which we wont be able to get but patients should not be rebuked if they are asking basic questions like what are the functioning of the prescribed medicines and whether to continue the previous medicines or not.

The number of experience written just not real at all, Dr. Nirmal can just prescribe normal medicine and treatment, their staff and himself are just very curious to perform tests in their clinic, and if you have those test done already and have reports, they just can't help you out at all. Dr. Nirmal do not give time to patients to explain their problems nor they know the issue deeply.
Highly disappointed, will not suggest any body to go for Dr. Nirmal at all.
Thanks !!
Visited For Stomach Pain
Hoped for better:Â Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issue
The doctor was uninterested in my listening to mother's history. He just quickly dismissed her problem saying that she should get her chest X-ray done as it is not a stomach problem. He was unwilling to look at her prior medicines and prescriptions. We went to another gastro doctor and the problem was diagnosed. This doctor was just interested in his fees and not in diagnosing or treating a patient.

Our experience with Dr Nirmal has been very poor. My parents visited his Clinic for Gastro related issues, he neither paid attention to the patient and simply referred to them to Mayom hospital for couple of test, subsequently he neither supervised the test nor instructed any body from the hospital to do the same. Finally, he looked at the results disinterestedly at hospital lobby itself and didn't offer any proper clinical advise. Wouldn't recommend him at all.

Interecting with Dr Kumar has been very reassuring and he could very quickly understand the symptoms associated to the pain and the related history of previous operations and past illeness. Me and wife has found his advices very beneficial would definitley recommend others to take his consultancy .

Firstly, I would like to mention that doctor fees is very expensive interms of patient satisfaction also when you try and explain about your health problems doctor would certainly gives you very quick response I only and only deals in gastric issues be specific and try to get rid of patient as quick as possible plus would not give you time more than 2 mins or listen to you patiently. Not recommended at all... kindly refund the fees which you took ** ** *** ** ****
