Patient Stories for Dr. Raman Kant Aggarwal
Visited For Joint Replacement Surgery
My mother, aged 70, had been suffering from severe pain in both shoulders for more than 2 years. Movement of both arms was severely restricted. She was unable to lie down, and had to sleep in sitting position. She was unable to undertake normal activities like bathing on her own, cooking etc., and her normal life was disrupted.
Her treatment with injections, drugs and physiotherapy was not of much help, and the pain kept worsening. We made inquires in the medical community, and learnt of Dr. Raman Kant Aggarwal as a renowned shoulder specialist & surgeon in Gurgaon / NCR.
We thus approached him for a solution. After evaluating her, he informed us that both the shoulder joints were severely damaged due to osteoarthritis, and advised shoulder replacement for both shoulders. Accordingly, she underwent Total Shoulder Replacement of the right shoulder in April 2019, followed by Reverse Shoulder Replacement in the left shoulder in October 2019. This was the first surgery of its type done in India (Angled BIO RSA). Both the surgeries were respectively followed by a schedule of regular exercises done at home.
She was able to resume her normal routine gradually, and is now (since November 2019) doing her normal activities like bathing, cooking etc. without much issue. She does experience some pain, but it is manageable.
We found the entire experience with Dr. Aggarwal and his team to be extremely positive. He is an extremely knowledgeable and highly focused doctor, with a positive, can do approach. Also we found him to be very sincere and transparent / honest. I think we could not have found a better doctor to treat my mother's condition, even if we had gone abroad. We wish to express our sincere gratefulness to him. I also wish to mention that the Reverse Shoulder Replacement was done by him on very short notice. He spent the entire night before the surgery planning for it, and slept only after the surgery was completed successfully. The entire experience was deeply rewarding for us, and we are deeply grateful.
Also we wish to express our sincere gratefulness to his team members, Dr. Vipul Gupta and Physiotherapist Dr. Amaar Yasir. **** *** **** ****** ************* **** a very positive and helpful approach. It has been very rewarding to talk with and learn from them.

Hoped for better: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for money
Very rude behavior, hardly explains the health issue. I visited for my mother's shoulder pain issue and was prescribed a steroid injection. I took the shot but wasn't advised of any possible reactions of the injection. My mother's entire hand got numb for two days. I was told to visit after a week by which the pain should reduce by 70%. Unfortunately, in my mother's case this didn't happen, when we told so to the doctor, not sure why he got annoyed and sort of started shouting at my mother and said that you don't understand your problem and started asking her only as to what she understands about the treatment. He also said this can happen to only 1 out of 100. Now its not my fault if I am that one. ******* ** ***** ** ** **** ********** ** ********* **** *** ********* ****** ** *********** Hardly spent any time in explaining the condition and precautions to be taken.** ***** ** * ********** ****** *** patients would have benefitted, but my experience was very rough. I would expect the doctor to have some empathy towards the patients and treat everyone with respect with a bit more sensitivity towards the senior citizens.While the doctors are considered God and I have a huge respect towards them, however, I do expect them to treat patients also with respect and dignity.
