I visited Dr Gowda around 11 months back and waited to write the review to see if the treatment is effective for long term. I got a severe bout of loose motions way back in second half of year 2010. It never really got cured. I consulted many doctors, did all sorts of possible tests which came out clean indicating no issue. No doctor could diagnose what the issue is and the issue continued. Imagine having loose motions for almost 16 years and the urgency I felt every time. I had to be within 10 second proximity to the toilet. My quality of life had deteriorated over the years, young years of life gone, family suffering - as going out with me meant constant fear of unforeseen emergencies and so on. It has left a permanent impact on my health, which cannot be undone. And yet there was no diagnosis.
When I visited Dr Gowda, he heard my case, saw all past records and explained to me my issue and finally put a name to it - IBS. That done, he recommended certain medication - a course for 15 days. I was fairly feeling much in control by the time I finished the course.
He also made sure I do not have to travel to his clinic as i stay very far and told me to share my concerns over email so that I do not end up wasting my time, energy, money just to see him. I was really touched by this gesture (given the loose motion problem).
He then asked me to repeat the course for 15 more days. ** *********** ****** ** *********** ****** ** *** ******. And till date I have no episode of loose motion over long time. If I happen to eat something spicy, i do get it but it corrects on its own without any medication within a day or two.
** ***** ** ** **** **** *** *** *** I thank Dr Gowda from the bottom of my heart and very strongly recommend him for gastro issues.

I had done my gallbladder removal surgery on 4th May 2026 with Dr. Maruthesh Gowda. He is quite good at what he does and had explained me well all the medical terms before the surgery so that I was well prepared for the surgery. He was kind enough to give enough time to answer my doubts and help me to manage my anxiety about surgery . He explained medicine well and never scared me or put me under stress. I had a very pleasant and wonderful experience with Koshys hospital team during my stay and will highly recommend Dr. Maruthesh for anything related to gastrointestinal related issues . Thank you doctor for your support and service.

I visited Dr Marutesh Gowda for long term Gastric related issues along with recent gallbladder stones on 26th March 2026. The first visit with doctor Marutesh Gowda itself gave a very positive outcome due to his extreme ********* *** confidence. Doctor listened very carefully and patiently to all my symptoms and issues, and quickly understood my priority treatment. He immediately suggested for Laproscopic Cholecystectomy as my gallbladder was inflamed. Since this was my very first surgery, I was little nervous, but I was made comfortable by the entire team and mostly doctor's advice. I got admitted the very next day and got operated on 28th March 2026. Surgery went really quick and smooth. I was out of OT within 30 minutes. Since the surgery was done on time before any complications could have occured due to my inflamed gallbladder, my recovery was painless and fast. Staff were extremely helpful and guided me and my family through the entire process very well. Co-ordinator Julie arranged the entire surgery with Dr Marutesh Gowda's suggestions and guidance the right way, and accommodated our requests and attended our concerns on time. Doctor helped my surgery get done at a very affordable price, since I did not have insurance. Dr Marutesh Gowda is a true blessing for us and all patients. I highly recommend the doctor and clinic for my entire wonderful experience.

My sister suggested Dr. Maruthesh Gowda (Gastroenterologist), so I came all the way from Italy to get treated for a perianal abscess, with some signs of fistula.
The doctor was very patient and listened carefully to all my concerns. He explained everything clearly and suggested a small surgery. Since I had very limited time in India, he made sure the procedure was done within those few days.
I trusted him completely, and he truly lived up to that trust.
I’m very happy with the treatment and overall experience.
