One of the most efficient and knowledgeable doctors I have ever met. Equally important is the fact he is a great human being with down to earth approach who is always eager to listen to patients and their guardians/wards patiently and explain to them every aspect of the disease till they are satisfied. He can spare any time out of his busy schedule to address patients and their guardians’ queries, questions and apprehensions with utmost calmness and composure. His team including Dr Lokesh and Dr Kundan and assistants, is very friendly, energetic and efficient too and also always available to address any issue related to the treatment.

I had been operated by Dr. Prabhat Lakkireddi on Aug 16 2018 for an Arthroscopic Bankart repair surgery on my right shoulder, which is a minimally invasive surgery to repair instability and restore function of a dislocated shoulder. I live in the United States and the injury first occurred while playing volleyball and later dislocated on several occasions while swimming, basketball, cricket etc. totaling to about 6 painful dislocations. This is common in Athletes wherein a few tend to put the shoulder back into position without pain, but for me, I am well built at 6ft/ 85kgs and when the shoulder dislocates the whole body is like locked and the only position of the body is to kneel and lay my arm on the ground. The body in an uncomfortable position and the pain is immense.
On my visit to India, I've searched the web and found Dr. Lakkireddi on Practo. He was my first choice but was hesitant to visit him because of where he practiced. (Don't ask me why). I had seen a couple of Doctors before I visited Dr Lakkireddi but finally opted purely based off the reviews on Practo and this time followed my gut and gave it a shot. I was very impressed on the first visit for the reason, he speaks to you as someone you've know for a while and him just being more than a Doctor. Most Doctors explain the issue and the treatment needed which to me is common, but its the confidence that Doctor creates in the patient who needs to get treated moreover a surgery. I've been in pain for more than 2yrs and did not want to go under the knife for the wrong reasons.
I had planned for a surgery earlier at another hospital, had my MRI reports/ blood work done but backed off due to bad experience just 1 hour before the surgery. Dr. Lakkireddi used the same reports and blood work to diagnose and I decided to go for the surgery without a second thought. It all happened in 10-15min and that's the confidence he created in me as a Doctor that you don't see anymore or rarely.
I am proud that I made my decision and thanks to Dr. Lakkireddi and his office assistant Venkat, Dr Shekar Reddy (Anesthesia) and his other team members (Sorry I don't recall the names) for helping me out. The surgery was a bit complex than expected as I might have damaged due to multiple dislocations. Its been 4 months that I had the surgery and I am recovering well. I had done a lot of research online on the Bankart Repair before the surgery and being sports person and its easy for me to do a rehab and adopt to physiotherapy. I've visited Dr Lakkireddi a couple of times after the surgery but never got a chance to interact on the Physiotherapy as I had to leave back to the U.S. I am working on my own and have a full movement but will go for muscle strengthening over the next few months and I shall see Dr. Lakkireddi on my next visit to India.

I was operated for ATFL Reconstruction(Ankle) with internal Brace in June 2018 done byDr.Prabhath sir and I am immensely happy with surgery and my recovery. I would like explain in detail about what happened and how Dr..Prabhath sir was helpful, sorry for the detailed feedback and hope this helps patients with similar problem.
Background: I was frequently twisting my ankle from last three years, I visited some orthopedic doctors in Chennai (I was staying in Chennai at that time and later moved to Hyderabad) and I didn't find them helpful and neither they understood my problem. I visited Dr.Prabhath in February when I again badly injured my ankle while playing Cricket and on my first visit Dr told me there is some problem with one of my Ligament called ATFL and suggested to take rest and after a month of taking some tablets suggested a CT Scan. In the scan it is confirmed that my ATFL ligament got tored and it requires surgery to reconstruct.I took other doctors opinion in Hyderabad and they also said the same about surgery.
Process: I got my ATFL ligament reconstructed with internal Brace in June 2018 with Dr Prabhath and it's been close to 6months and I started jogging with no pain and as of now my ankle looks stable.I would say recovery is very good with very less medication and I appreciate how all this process went through with Dr.Prabhat sir.
For the following reasons I would suggest Dr.Prabhath Lakireddy.
1. Detailed explanation of the problem. Dr.Prabhath explained me what happened to mmy ankle and what should be done and what happens if we don't go for it's repair.
2. Time he spends with patients and having lot of patience in answering our doubts and questions.
3. Before the surgery he told me the procedure name and even told me to check in Google for some details and at the same time asked me not to go for too much details which might confuse.
4. Surgery went very well and I was discharged next day with an advise of rest for 2 months and a total rest for 6 months. I was suggested Calcium supplements for 3 months and pain killers for two weeks. Very less medication or no unnecessary medications.
5. No physiotherapy suggested. He told few excersices to do everyday and it helped a lot.
6. Avoids unnecessary lab tests and he asks every time if we can afford scan or not which is very rare.
I am very happy with Dr.Prabhat Lakireddy *** ** ** *** ** *** **** ******* ** ****** A big thank you sir !!!!!

Had great experience experience with Prabhat sir,
I had undergone arthroscopic surgery for shoulder, went great.
Prabhat sir is so kind and helpful in making me understand the problem, explained very clearly about my condition and what exactly the surgery is for. Post surgery follow up and support from Prabhat sir and his team especially kundan sir, solanki sir, Mr. Venkatesh was great.
Doctors like Prabhat sir is rare to find who really takes very much care about patients.
I am very thankful to him.
And finally how can I forget to mention great hospitality of Apollo hospitals, Jubilee hills. Sisters in Apollo treated me as if they are treating their own brother.
Thanks a lot for them too..
