8 Patient Stories for Dr. Shama S Kovale
Happy with: Value for moneyExplanation of the health issueDoctor friendliness
Dr Kavale was approachable, had patience to listen to my problems, evaluate and diagnosed my complaint promptly.
At Kokilaben hospital she gave me estimate of 3.75 lakhs for neck Surgery of Cyst removal. After surgery bill was 5.60 lakhs.when asked about additional cost, she said she has kept additional surgeon in surgery. Which she never informed me before surgery. Hospital charged for tow aenesthesia twice assistant dr fee. She did not inform all this prior to surgery.

From the first moment itself, the doctor seemed uninterested and started making assumption without even listening to the symptoms. She was rather condescending and ended with giving no feedback, no medicines and no information even. She asked me "to figure out the problem". Extremely unprofessional and pricey (at Rs. 1500 for a 3 minute appointment). Wouldn't recommend her at all.
I went to visit her with my elderly parents and she was unapproachable. It was only when we told her that we have come through Dr Santosh Shetty that her tone changed a little. ***** ***** ******* ** *** ** **** ** * ******* ****** ******** ***** Never had such an experience with a doctor ever!
