Patient Stories for A.J. Hospital & Research Centre
Visited Dr. Dheeraj (Orthopedic surgeon)
My father (65 years old) had been suffering from severe hip and leg pain for over six months. We consulted many doctors, but his condition kept worsening. Finally, we met Dr. Dheeraj Kumar, and from the very first consultation, he clearly explained my father’s spine condition, the risks involved, the expected outcomes, and the treatment options available.
His confidence, clarity, and calm approach gave our entire family immense reassurance during a very difficult phase.
My father recently underwent a complex L4–L5 spine fusion surgery performed by Dr. Dheeraj. The surgery was successful, and the improvement has been remarkable. Before the procedure, he could barely walk and was in constant, severe pain. Today, just a few days after the operation, he is able to stand and walk with the help of a walker, and his hip and leg pain has drastically reduced. Watching him regain movement and strength so quickly has been a huge relief for all of us.
We are extremely grateful for Dr. Dheeraj Kumar’s expertise, kindness, and dedicated care. He has truly given my father a new chance at mobility and comfort.

On a friend’s recommendation I sent my mother to Dr Shivprasad for treatment of persistent dyspepsia. He was patient and understanding and examined and explained her problem in a simple and easily comprehensible way. It was over all a good experience and she is quite satisfied with his treatment.
Visited Dr. Saurabh Rai (Neurologist)
He is not just a doctor, but truly a lifesaver. His kindness, confidence, and professionalism gave us strength during one of the most difficult times in our lives. Thank you for giving my mother Mrs. Lalitha and sister Mrs. Mamatha Anil a new beginning, and for restoring happiness in our family.
We will always remember him in our prayers. * His care and dedication inspire patients to heal faster, and his presence itself brings hope. You are truly a blessing to our family.
Visited Dr. Maben E V S (General Physician)

Happy with the doctor, *** **** ******* **** *** ******** ********* ***** ****** ************. I had booked an appointment from Bangalore for my father who is residing in Mangalore. The appointment was booked for Monday, specifically to meet Dr Maben , however when my father visited AJ Hospital, he was asked to come on Tuesday since the doctor was available on Tuesday. The travel time to go and come back with disappointed feel was indeed frustrating for anyone who would think only of cure and nothing else. Hope things like this are not repeated in the future. Thank you
