My Father was suffering from Diabetes from year 2009. I took him from cuttack,Odisha to Hyderabad. Today 5th Dec 2017 we met Dr. Shyam. First impression lasts long. His word itself heals our illness and gave lot of confidence and peace of mind. He took good amount of time and with lot of patience and explained us clearly about the illness/rootcause and the medication needed. He is not much into writing unnecessary medicines. Advised for exercise/morning walk etc.. for my 62 year Old father. I wish and pray to God Almighty, for long and healthy life of Dr. Shyam and wish more such eminent doctor should be available in our India. Regarding other aspects the Idea Clinic is more informative itself and staffs are very humble and polite and well behaved. Very neat and clean ambience. We are fully satisfied and its much worthy we came from Such a distance place to Visit such an eminent Doctor in Hyderabad. Wish you all the best Dr. Shyam for all your future endeavor .
Thanks and Regards

** ****** **** ***** *** **** ****** **** *** ******** I recommended you to my 61-year-old father because of your credentials. * *** ****** **** *********My father has always had a zest for life. I have seen him at his strongest, meeting every challenge head on. In February 2026, he travelled all the way from Patancheru to see you with an HbA1c of 12. He was already worried about his health. He came to you for guidance and some reassurance.**** ** *** ******* *** * ******** You told him his sugar levels were very high, that he had come all the way from Patancheru, and that at his age his levels should have been normal. ** ***** **** ***** ***** *** **** * ********* ********* ******* **** *** ******* ** ** **** *** ********** Your facts were correct. **** ****** *** **** You gave him no plan and no encouragement, no solution. ** **** **** ****** ******* ******* *** ********** **** **** * ********* **** He was quiet, ************* *** ** **** that he refused to see any other doctor* ** *** ******* ** ***** ******* ** **** ** **** **** *** ****** ***** * ****** ************ **** ****He fought back on his own. Today, his HbA1c is 6.2. ** ******** **** ******* **** *** ******* ** **** *** ***** ****** ****** ** ***** **** ***** ***** **** ** ********* **** ****** That is why I am writing this today.I understand that consultations are short and that a doctor cannot give patients the time a therapist can. But compassion does not require more time. It requires intent. A frightened patient needs a way forward, not ridicule. * ******* *** ****** **** **** ************ *** ***** **** **** ******* ******* *** *** * ********* **** *** ** ********** **** ***** ***** **** **** ** ****** *** ******.A doctor's words make an enormous difference to a patient's life.

The visit was for my mother in law.
**** ******** **** *** ********** ****** **** ** **** **** ************ The doctor has no respect for the elderly. He yelled at a 74 year old senior citizen for asking questions and costs. She was shell shocked at the doctor's behaviour. He did not stop there and lectured her about spending money, getting tests done, not being a miser etc. ********* *** ****** ****** ****** ***** ********* **** **** ** ******** *** ******** ********** **** *** ************** ***************** We were flabbergasted by this attitude being dished out by a professional and a doctor nonetheless.
**** ** *** ***** ** ******* ********* **** ****** ** ***** * **** ****** **** *********** ******** **** ******* ******* ************** *** *** *** ********* ** * ******** ********** No wonder, there was no waiting time. To add on, during the times of COVID, the clinic had no social distancing, sanitising, hand washing, hygiene policies.
We had to learn it the hard and expensive way. I do not recommend this doctor to anybody. ****** *** ******** *** ****** **** **** ******* *** ****** **** ****** ********* ***** **** ** ******* *********** ***** ************ ******** *** *************** **** ****** ******** *** **** ** **** ***** ***** ******* ****** **** ***** *******

He is a very good doctor for diabetes and treats patients very well. I’m very happy with his care. He also gave me clear answers to all my questions.
I was expecting a more detailed consultation about my thyroid concerns, but the doctor seemed rushed and did not discuss my test reports thoroughly. I would have appreciated a more thorough evaluation before recommending additional tests.
I recommend Dr. Shyam Kalavalapalli. The overall experience was good and the appointment was on time.
