Dr Raghu is very informal while interacting making me feel more comfortable to explain my health problems in detail. He listens to me with full attention and then starts his checks. He is very caring doctor, particularity for the elderly people like me. He follows systematic diagnostic approach for identifying the cause *** ********** *** ***** ******** *** ********** He measures BP by himself also to reconfirm the symptoms.
Dr Raghu remembers me very well and has good memory of my past medical history like when I visited in the recent past and about medical history including BPH, marginally low WBC for few years etc. This enabled consistent treatment and progressive improvement in health
His advise on daily habits including the importance of exercise etc have been very useful to me in maintaining reasonably good health.
I have been going to him for more than last four years and am very happy. He also treats my wife and my visiting children to full satisfaction and confidence.

Dr. Raghu J is a wonderful doctor* *** ********* ** ******** *** **** ** ********* ** ******** Most of the time repeated visits were not required. He devoted sufficient time and explained about the ailment in simple language. I strongly recommend this doctor. My above narration is based upon my several visits to him at different occasions and his advice for my 85 years mother.

This is our first visit. Happy that there is not much waiting time. However Doctor is in a kind of hurry and consultation completed in just less than 5 mins. Prescribed a couple of tests to be done along with some medication. We have a follow up and hope it goes well.

I reached out to doctor for hyperthyroidism, and the medicine he recommended was thyroxine ***** ****** ** *** * ****** ** ****** *** asked meet him with test result of T3, T4, TSH, and Anti TG test. As suggested, I meet him with the test result (T3, T4, and TSH were normal) and Anti TG was on the higher side. Post seeing the test result he asked to double the dose to which I asked as I started to see result and level is close to normal should I increase the dose he asked to trust him. **** ********** *** **** *** *** ****** *** ********* ********* **** ********* ***** *** ***** ******** ***** ******** so I went for test and found out the TSH level dropped to 0.03, and other tests like LDL, etc. was abnormal which I never seen in my past reports. When I reached out to doctor with this report to my surprise, he asked to discontinue the medicine for a month and asked to ignore Anti TG report (this time it got increased to three times). Without medication, for ten days I was not feeling well, so I decided to see another doctor. *** *** ***** ****** *** ********* ** **** **** * *** ***** ** **** *** ******** *** ***** ** **** ** ******* ** ********* *** ***** *** ****** **** *** ********** **** ** ******* *** I would never recommend this guy to anyone.
Visited For Fever Treatment

Doctor asked us to leave as he had to examine another patient recommended by Sakra Staff (Shubhashish). Also the patient was sitting outside and talking selfies !!! It was mentioned by Shubhashish that you are going through my recommendation so no need of queue to preferable patient.
We had been waiting for our number since past 1 hour and number was also on display still doctor had his preferences !!!! If doctor can’t respect his / her patients and go by recommendations, absolutely not recommended, better have someone like Shubhashish to help you facilitate the visit !!!!

Doctor didn't spend enough time to listen to my problems.. Not sure why he was in so hurry.. They are charging so much fee.. atleast they should spend some time to make patient comfortable.. As he was in hurry i couldn't tell my problems completely.. bad experience.. didn't expect this from sakra.. better to go to some normal hospitals who charge reasonable..

I was sick for two months and after taking treatment from two different doctors at two different hospital , I finally took consultation from Dr. Raghu J. He was the only one to find out the root cause of my continous sickness and treated me very well. He is very polite and always give detailed explanation. Thanks to Dr. Raghu J

Dr. Raghu is one of the most qualified and professional doctors I have come across. He empathises with the patients and is a genius at diagnosis.
My son was very ill and dehydrated. The way Dr. Raghu treated him was exemplary. He was up and about in a very short time.
I would highly recommend Dr. Raghu to everyone.

Inconsiderate doctor I have ever seen. I never put reviews but I thought this review is a must as others can take right decision.
This doctor was not friendly to talk and we get that he is just trying to send us away quickly to save his time. He was not listening to patient’s concerns ************
Secondly and most horrible part is that he prescribed Citalin Forte to my wife and never told us the major side effects of it. *** ***** ****** ******** *** * **** *** *** **** *** ****** *** ********* ******* ****** *** *** **** ** *** ** **** ***** * ***** Seriously very very bad.
Third, I tried to contact the doctor over phone and WhatsApp but he is not responding at all.
Never ever see this doctor. ****** ** ******** ***** ** *** *******

***** **** *** **** ********** ** ******* ********* **** ******* **** ****** ******* *** *** ******* ** *** ********** Food routine part is least important. According to me that should be the most important part to explain. ***** **** **** **** ** **** ***** ** ****** *** ****** **** ******* ** ***** ** **** ** ***** ********** ***** And regarding responsiveness over whatsapp or call is very poor. For patient parties this is very annoying to follow up. Doctor will try to see you in 3 mins but Pharmacy will take 1hr to give you medicine. Sacra hospital really does not deserve further visit.
