He, no doubt, a very good specialist but he needs to plan the no of patients to attend on daily basis. If he takes leave half day, second half he should not allow many patients which he cannot handle. Minimum 2 hours waiting and in between he goes out for some cases without any estimation of time he comes back.
On top of that he makes the other junior doctors to go through the case when he does not have time.
This is a somewhat un acceptable and he must improve these sensitive issue of patient waiting time.

Consulted on 21st Oct 2017... in first sight, i found charming smiley face...has lots of patience while interacting....Keenly listened to my health issues...suggested life style changes....prescribed only tests that barely necessitated ...explained medication...Personally practised on usage of rotahaler.... In a nut shell, it remembered the treatments rendered by our personal doctors in the good olden days..... It is an awesome experience
Very well experienced doctor taking very much care half of the disease is with the way the doctor talks and responses very well doctor than yashoda secunderabad I recommend each and every one of them to visit to him who have any problems related to pulmonology. Rating I personally give to him is 5/5.
Not a good experience, on the first visit he was good and listen to the problem and suggested a process to be done. Explained on the process and safety measures that patient need to take care after the process. He was reachable till the process was done.
Then started the real problem, patient started to face severe health issues and when we contacted him, he is simply like whatever the process I have done it is all well and have no idea about the other complications that patient had.
From the next visit, he left the check broncho process to his junior doctors and only be suggesting on the medicines.
The patient flow is high and no importance at all for the appointment given. Had to wait hours and hours to visit the doctor.
Nice experience. I was diagnosed with TB LYMPHADENITIS in April and wasn't well since.
After I first met Nagarjuna sir at YASHODA Somajiguda, things changed. Perfect decision making beyond investigations.
Though he suggested investigations.. his medical advice started before the investigation results n yes definitely inline.
I am recovering with his medical advice n I believe I have made a good choice of the doctor.
Doc was cool and had lots of patience, asked all relevant questions and went thru old patient history. Started off with mild dosage and asked us to observe the developments and then decide the next course of action. Check the way inhaler was being used and demonstrated the right way of using it.

Doctor heard my problem with patience and went through the earlier prescriptions. He didn’t unnecessarily ask me to take various tests. He was very friendly and gave comfort.
