We met Dr. Nandakumaran after a bad experience at Sakra hospital. My wife Sujata was having frequent high temperature for the 5th day. On day 2 we went to Sakra. It is a big hospital and near to where we live. The duty doctor's approach was very casual. She didn't think much of it. She prescribed Dolo-650, which Sujata was already having. We told specifically that the temperature was coming back as the effect of the paracetamol's effect wears off. The Doc asked not to worry and continue paracetamol. We were asked to do CBS and the she said, there was nothing in it. Two days later when Sujata's condition remained the same, we went back and met the same doctor. She had the same casual attitude and this time send us back with antibiotic. The next day Sujata's condition worsened and she got a blackout. We rushed to meet Dr. Nandakumaran (I found his reference on Practo.com). We choose to go to Dr.Nandakumaran because of his number of years of experience. With Doctor we immediately felt very confident. He examined Sujata and immediately said that he suspected Viral Pneumonia. The chest X-ray confirmed it. He advised us to shift to Narayana. Sujata was in the intensive care unit for 3 days. She finally got discharged yesterday. Doctor went out of the way and visited Sujata at the ICU two times and also inquired on the phone on a daily basis. His reassuring words had very positive effect on Sujata and definitely helped her speedy recovery. We visited Doctor yesterday on out way back to thank him. He patiently read through the reports and advised on good diet etc. We are very thankful to Dr. Nandakumaran.

Happy with: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for moneyWait time
Dr. Nandagopalan nair is a very friendly doctor and has vast experience. He is defenetly ine of the best in HSR. he was very patient and explained everything in detail. But Health Nest hospital is not a recommended place for visit. The doctor consultation charge is Rs. 450 where as nursing charge is Rs. 1400 (thrice the consultation fee) and they do nothing but a glucose drip. so it's better you visit the same doctor at a different place. Greenview or Narayana hridyalaya is far more recommended above Health Nest.

Had almost 45 min to meet the doctor. It was because he was in another hospital and still the queen hospital booking was taken for 6 pm and he turned to the hospital after 45 min. Also asked nurse to give nebulization and just left the hospital even without explaining the medicine dosage.
