Amazing doctor and amazing hospital. My mother in law went through mitral valve replacement on 2nd April and everything from surgery to after care and even doctor availability was amazing. We met so many doctors in mumbai for second opinions but doctor panda and asian heart are class apart! He truly is a great doctor and asian heart does have very good set procedures for before and after care. I am writing today after observing for more than a month that mother in law is recovering well. I know none other hospital where dietician, diabotologist and even cardiac doctors will pick your phone even after 1 month of surgery and discharge wven though you are not going to pay any thing to them now. Thank you Dr Panda and Asian Heart!

My father was diagnosed with six plaques in his arteries. We went to Dr. Ramakant Panda hoping for our queries to be resolved, ***** *** ********* ****** *** ********** We were made to wait for over 7 hours to meet him, and the fees charged was 11K. Can you imagine? 2K just for him to review the angio CD. He dismissed us in 5 minutes, did not even watch my father's CD, and refused to answer any questions. He is extremely rude and unconcerned, *** ********** *** ***** **********. Please reconsider in case of emergency and otherwise, and DO NOT visit this overpriced, ***** ****** *** ******** ** *** ***** Strong and sincere advice from a concerned daughter.

There is no after operation service. The hospital is too costly *** ** *** ****** *****They only flaunt about the grt personalities they have treated , the doc might operate well but they do not take charge of the patient and their problems after the surgery.I would not recommend this hospital.Dr. Panda doesn't even attend his patients after the surgery
