Patient Testimonials

how patients worldwide trust hospitals in India for expert medical care.
Muralidharan k.v

I underwent two major surgeries for colorectal cancer.Earlier I underwent 8 sittings of chemo and 24 exposure to radiation therapy.I found the radiology department headed by Dr.B.K.M.Reddy,and ably assisted by Dr.Priya Sinha,were very compassionate,friendly and took pains to explain the entire procedure. The entire department of Radiology is run like a well oiled machine.The competence of Dr.Bhat cannot be questioned as he is perhaps one of the best surgical gastro enterologist but what is outstanding is his interaction with the patient and the caregivers.He is extremely gentle, polite and specific.His overall bearing inspires confidence in both patient and care givers.Overall it was a 5 star experience

And I would like to mention my special thanks to his team Dr. Rekha and Dr. Karthik for their immense support throughout the stay supporting both physically and mentally.And housekeeping service was also good with very prompt cleaning.
