My grandmother wasThis review is for Dr. Ajit Shetty and the Suvidha Hospital staff.
A very bad and disheartening experience here.
My grandmother was admitted here and we lost her just one day after her discharge.
My grandmother was suffering from breathlessness and her stomach was bloated since few days that alerted us to have her check up.
Dr.Mamtha Shriyan had suggested to take my grandmother to Dr.Ajit Shetty who was in SRV Hospital then.
Dr.Ajit Shetty who had checked her had suggested that we do her chest X Ray ,Sonography and blood test at Hemant Shah X Ray and Sonography Centre.
On 13th Feb 2019 at Hemant Shah X Ray and Sonography Centre,Dr.Hemant did her sonography and immediately called Dr.Ajit Shetty talking about her problem and said that he is sending her at Suvidha Hospital "NOW".After keeping the phone he told us to take her there immediately. He didn't even make us sit and talk about her problem *** *** ******** * *** ** ***** saying her kidney has failed.
I was taken aback and asked him again ,then he asked for her blood reports which showed s.creatinine 2.9 that was above the permissible limit and said this high level shows her both kidneys have failed. He kept saying the same thing and pushing us to admit her there now .Even after saying that she didn't have her breakfast because of the sonography process he said "leave it ,she can have it there". We were already concerned about her health *** **** *** **** ** ** **** *** ****** ** ******** ******** *** ** ***** ** *** *** ******** ** ******* ******** **** "he himself kept and arranged all the documents I had given him in my folder" and asked his staff to arrange wheel chair to take my grandmother till the building lift.

Here at Suvidha , Dr.Ajit Shetty had intially said her kidney is not functioning properly and after two days observation she was kept on infusamin injection for three days.During this injection,on the first day she was not to be given food and water ,in the second day we were asked to apply water on her lips to avoid dryness and on the third she was allowed to have liquids. After this course a kidney specialist Dr.Keyur Dave had come to check on her and he cleary said the problem is not her kidneys but its her intestines.Just after the course her stomach had again started bloating!!!
This people had checked her sonography *** **** **** ***** ********Few days later Dr.Pradeep Shriyan came who again said her gall bladder movement is not heard and again asked her to be kept on only clear water diet(water and coconut water only).Again the next day ,Dr Shetty asked us again to start giving her liquid diet.

She was there for 12 days .They gave us hopes and almost after 6-7 days finally gave up when she didn't get better giving reasons such as "She is old..it's difficult..it's her diet".
******** ** ** ******** *** ********* ******** ****** *** **********she was unable to walk and had become extremely weak.On 9th day(21st Feb 2019) ,she was extremely sleepy all the time and would not wake up even with loudest sound.
As much as I have seen her,she doesn't sleep like this with her mouth open and tongue out!!! She would wake up even with the slightest sound.She didn't even urinate because she was so sleepy.I had alerted the nurses and assistant doctors present who said "she didn't sleep much ..let her sleep". I dont have problem with her sleeping *** ***** * *** ****** * *** *** **** *** * ****** ***** *** **** ********* I kept highlighting it to the them again saying she didn't urinate since 12 pm after which they checked her and around 11 pm gave her few medicines and glycerin enema and kept her on drips.Since afternoon,it took them 11 hours to take this action.Around 12am she had stool motion with urine and she seemed normal .
The next day ,when Dr.Ajit came for doing routine checkup,none of the nurses highlighted it ,I had to tell him after which they prompted it "yes she was drowsy and she got normal after motion".The doctor didn't react much. I didn't expect such reaction from a known doctor like him neither did i expect the nurses to describe it so normally. **** ****** **** ******* **** ****** **** ********* ***** ** *** ********* ************ ****** **** **** *************** I even informed them she had started having Nepro Low protein since that day but they ignored saying that could not be the reason.
This sleepiness continued for the next two days,she would just stare and speak less.She wouldn't feel hungry. On 23rd feb 2019, when Dr.Ajit visited her i told him "her condition has become worse" and he ignored it saying it's due to her diet and old age and gave her discharge saying nothing more can done keeping her here in hospital. Every nurse that came on that day to give her medicines/injections ignored the fact that my grandmother is not normal and every time I told them she doesn't look normal they would say its her age and liquid diet.My grandmother who herself told us when she wanted to use the washroom couldn't control her bladder and urinated there itself unaware about it.
Finally we had to raise our voice to make them realise her situation after which all nurses came and checked her BP which had dropped drastically * ****** **** *** ******* *** ****** ************ ***** *** *** then she was immediately moved to ICU .**** * ******** ** ********* *** ************* ********* ** ** ************** *** *** **** ****** ****** ** **** ******** ******** *** ******* ******** ** ***** ******** **
Also she had wound in her hand for which we had to continuously remind the nurses to check and dress it *** **** ***** ** **** ***** ******** ***** ** ****** ***** This happened because that was not part of the treatment and medicines they are required to give the patient and neither could they see the blood stained bandage in her hand.
These only happened because the nurses didn't find it important to give that "extra attention and care" as they are not bring paid for that.
That means they need a person to be with the patient ,monitor the patient and inform the doctors about them. Why am I paying this huge amount for her treatment in a "private hospital" if I am required to do the monitoring .
Even in ICU we had to tell them to check if she is urinating,my grandmother was kept in diaper which she was not used to .If she feels like urinating/passing stool she prefers to go to washroom so it was very difficult to convince her to use the diaper instead as she couldn't walk due to her weakness. We had informed the nurse and assistant doctor there about this and asked them to check this.
Let me inform you ,she was admitted there for her kidney malfunctioning ,*** **** *** ***** **** ** ***** *** ** *** *** ********* *** ** *** ** **** **** After continuously reminding them ,they went for Urinary catheterization late at night. Similarly next day in morning,she had problem with her stool motion(she also had intestinal malfunctioning) and we had to remind them to help her either by giving enema or by taking her to the washroom. They didn't take her till the Dr.Ajit came "around 11 am" and asked them to take her to washroom.
Isn't it wrong when the medical staff present couldn't understand how critical it was to help the patient to pass stool and urine in time with respect to their health problem only waiting for the doctor's orders!!!!
She didn't improve much in ICU ..no one would considering the way they treated her and was asked to be discharged saying nothing much can be done.
One who walked inside the hospital had to move out with the help of wheelchair in an extremely pitiable condition.
Even on that day I complained to Dr.Ajit regarding the carelessness of the nurses present that lead to her ICU admission and his reply came as a shock to me "Now you will be looking for faults but instead you need to decide what is to be done with your grandmother..do you want to keep her admitted here or do you want to get her discharged.."and continued telling us about her condition thus diverting our mind **** ***** ****** ** *** **** ******** *** ******* *
I expected him to take into consideration our problems but instead he made us feel guilty by thinking "how can I think of something other than my grandmother.. I am so wrong". **** ****************
And one day after on 26th Feb 2019 she expired!!!!
We thought admitting her here under Dr.Ajit Shetty would improve her condition *** ***** ******* *** **** ***** ** *** ******
We were charged a hefty fees including the ICU charges where she was admitted **** ******* ** ***** ************ *** the result is disheartening****** **** *** **** **** ********* *** **** ***** ***** ***** **** **** ******* **** ******** ********** ***** **** **** ***** *** ** *** ******** *****
