I recently consulted Doctor Gautham for grade 2 haemorroid and fissure related consultation at Sai Multi-speciality Clinic near Arekere, Bangalore. Since Sir had earlier operated and fully treated my Mother-in-law for Hernia, he was well known to my husband who recommended that I consult him first as he also treats piles, fissures and other related ailments.My problem had been recurring for past 4years and at times got painful impacting work and daily activities. I had been following conservative treatment on my own everytime the problem occurred but was to no avail and just a temporary fix for few days/ weeks adding on to my frustration.Post diagnosis by Dr Gautham, he suggested that I get a laser Fissurectomy and hemorrhoidopexy done to get rid of the problem in the long run as it was already in grade 2 and with time it would only aggravate and complicate the situation. I was a bit hesitant initially to give in immediately for surgery at once but what he suggested not only made sense but somehow I could also sense a genuine care for his patient. He is very calm, composed, highly ************** caring and extremely humble. Appreciate his quick responsiveness over chat, calls, etc.. he is reachable and always available for his patients no matter how busy he is. A very rare quality of professionalism mixed with a personal touch. These are a few qualities that every anxious patient (like me) would like to see in a doctor treating him/her. I was lucky to have met him without much effort or research. He has honestly answered all my queries well (I must have frustrated him at times with multiple ifs and buts which came out of mere anxiety) but he is a true gentleman and has handled every situation with utmost calm.Honestly, there was no need for me to write this long review as there are already so many feedbacks from his previous patients that attests to his superior skillsets and excellent services. I got my surgery done at Rainbow Hospital Bannerghatta a day before and here I am writing this review as I really wanted to express my sincere gratitude for his kind services.I feel much better now and happy that I got rid of a long standing problem and mental blockage.If you have consulted Dr Gautham, then there is no need for you to look back or hopelessly goose hunt for another doctor. Trust him (he is Godsend), sincerely follow his advice and he will cure you off your illness completely.Thank you Dr Gautham for your kind support, the painless surgery and excellent treatment.Kind Regards

I got diagnosed inguinal hernia and needed to get treated. After a long search on Practo & google by going through the review comments specified on many doctors, we have found a right doctor for the hernia treatment i.e., we have decided to get the treatment by Dr.Gautham based on many positive reviews on him.We have consulted Dr.Gautham and he has explained clearly about the issue & the procedure to be followd to fix this issue and has also answered all our queries patiently. His explanation & response have given us more confident and comfort to start the surgery immediately. He has done the Laproscopic surgery successfully and the surgery went very well without any complication and I got discharged very next day without any pain. He is always reachable on call or WhatsApp for any queries before & after the surgery. He has supported me on Sunday also in a critical situation (continuous stomach pain & continuous vomit due to intestine stuck). His humanity and caring to patient are impressive.It has been less than a week now since the surgery got over, I am feeling quite comfortable and getting back to regular routine life. I am so happy now that I have taken the right decision in finding a right doctor for the treatment.Thank you very much Dr.Gautham for your wonderful support 🙏

I have been suffering from Acute Pancreatitis for past 8 years and on and off I was getting admitted to various reputed hospitals and nursing homes for this.
But out of the surprise nowhere the exact reason of my ailment got diagnosed properly.
Some of the hospitals told exact etiology of the disease could not be found, in some places I have been told that due to excessive alcohol consumptions I got acute pancreatitis.
But let me tell you guys that I am not alcoholic at all.
Pancreatitis is a nightmare one can have. You can’t stand, you can’t sleep, you can’t have all types of spicy food once you are diagnosed with pancreatitis.
Due to recurrent attack of pancreatitis, eventually it led to Chronic Pancreatitis along with Gall Bladder stones.
After several hospitals, numerous visits to different reputed doctors, one day I met Dr Gautham S L.
This is the first time, I felt that a doctor is listening minutely to a patient without any hurry burry and he tried to find out the exact reason of my Chronic disease without generalising with common myth of Alcohol abusiveness.
He thoroughly checked all my previous medical reports( Even though the reports were as old as 8 years) and came to conclusion as the Gall bladder stones are the main reason of my recurrent Pancreatitis attack.
I was literally very low in morale and tensed as how to lead the rest of my life. He is the one who not only guided me , but also did the laparoscopic surgery for gallbladder stones removal with utmost effective way.
Throughout this, he was very caring and friendly and the treatment which he has given me is outstanding.
What I have observed, he is very professional and responsible in his duty, at the same time he has done a very good counselling job and boosted up my confidence of leading a normal life with the disease.
Many a times I had disturbed him by calling or messaging out of agony. Surprisingly I got everytime a quick response from him.
This helping and friendly nature makes Dr Gautham ahead of others.
I am truly satisfied and a very happy patient under him who not only treated me well but also boosted my morale up!!!
Thank you very much Doctor! I truly admire you!!!
Thanks and best wishes,

I I had to undergo immediate surgery and had absolutely no money to pay for it. I asked for discount and no one was willing to give me a healthy discount. I was in so much pain. And I didn’t have lunch also that day. Doctor Gautham was so very understanding of the situation and gave me a healthy discount of INR 1000 without any negotiation and without any hesitation. The exact amount of discount I was asking every hospital staff around me for was INR 1,000. Only Dr. Gautham helped me out. I had an abscess removal. And it was my first time I am having any surgery. They was absolutely little to zero pain. I did not feel any pain after the surgery. In 24 hours time now I can walk very well. Absolutely no problem. Just amazing experience. He asked me about my profession when doing the surgery, made me feel at ease. We need more doctors like him. I felt so safe in his hands.
Again, I came to him the next day for dressing changes and the charges were INR 400. But he could see my financial condition and waived that entire amount. Wow! He told me how to take care of my post-op area at home.
I just want to tell Dr. Gautham thank you. But most importantly a bigger thanks to his parents, for raising a wonderful human being into society. He could have become anything, but he chose this path. I am happy our paths crossed each other.
Maybe we will not see each other in the future, but just know, I will never forget you and if I see you in public, I certainly come over and give my regards in person.
Thank you for everything Doctor. You touched my life on Feb 26th, 2020. :) Thanks to you, I can walk again much better today. You have won me!
Visited For Circumcision

I had booked a consultation with Dr Gautham S L to get treated for Phimosis. I was suggested to undergo ZSR Circumcision for the same and the doctor answered all my questions and clarified all the doubts that i had on the surgical and the recovery process. The surgery was very smooth and i was discharged the next day.
This was my very first surgery and the doctor clearly understood the anxiety that i carried and was patient enough to clarify on all my questions and concerns which gave me confidence.
For the follow up visit, as i had to visit the clinic from a far off place, despite of another commitment, Doctor was kind enough to wait till I reached the clinic even if I was late by almost half an hour, with all patience, again answered all my questions and made me feel much better mentally.
Its been 10 days after the surgery and now i have almost completely recovered.
Regarding the clinic, it was clean and all the staff in the clinic were friendly.
Dr Gautham is a gentleman and undoubtedly stands out of all the doctors that i have met till now.

I consulted Dr. GAUTHAM as my wife was complaining about abdominal pain which was later diagnosed as umblical hernia, gall bladder stone and appendigitas.
As would anyone be, even I was deceived looking at a doctor who was young and fit:). But those apprehensions didn't last longer. Dr. Gautham is not just a brilliant doctor but he has the true sense of humanity and is highly empathetic and compassionate about the patients health. Not just that, he very approachable and friendly unlike a lot other doctors who would get annoyed if you called them on phone or sent a whatspp message. And instead of helping would ask you to visit the clinic even to discuss certain things post consultation. He isn't a doctor to earn any fortune, he is someone who helps people with a genuine heart. I have consulted innumerable doctors in my lifetime, *** *** ******* ** *** ******* ** *** *** **** ******* *** ****** So if you are consulting Dr.Gautham, then don't even look around, you are in the hands excellent doctor.:)
Thanks a lot doctor. You are amazing. God bless you. Wish we have more doctors like you. All the best!!!

This is a review I am writing for those who are in search for best doctors.. I have got laproscopic hiatal hernia repair done by Dr Gautham. If you are still figuring out who's the best doctor to reach out, your search stops here. A very humble, patient and down to earth person. Very approachable and Responsive. The surgery went extremely well. Even though it looked complex, the doctor made it look like a painless procedure. He does it effortless, that implies his prior experience and expertness. Talk to the doctor once, you will know for yourself that he is extremely knowledgeable in his field of work, shows great interest and enthusiasm towards your treatment procedures, answers all your questions without being impatient. (Not even a bit)Do not give any second thoughts.. Just trust him blindly and you won't regret.. Believe me, he will take good care of you (like a friend).. Good luck.

No words to explain my gratitude for the treatment I've got from Dr. Gautham. Never ever expected this much friendliness and patience from a reputed and experienced doctor like him. The way he was explaining my condition is greatly appreciated and even during the surgery he never lost his patience in handling me as I'm highly sensitive and was not cooperating much. He is very polite and has a down to earth nature. All I wanted to tell you is I'm highly grateful to you doctor... Thank you so much for whatever you have done for me.

Dr. Gautham is a godsend. My mother needed a PEG tube to be implanted and and also had a large bedsore that had to be addressed. At a different place, we were misguided that the bedsore needed an immediate, complicated surgery. But as soon as Dr. Gautham took a look, he not only negated the need for the surgery, he gave a treatment plan that helped heal the rather large bedsore by creams alone! And for the PEG implant, he did it in quick time with minimal pain and my mother, who has Parkinsons and ALS, did not face any side effects from it. I am really thankful to Dr. Gautham for his highly ethical and friendly way of work. Even now, 3 months after the surgery and treatment, he messages to keep tabs on how my mother is doing. Very few doctors are like this and we were lucky to find someone like Dr. Gautham.

I was suffering from Hemorrhoids for past 10 plus years. Took tablets and creams to ease the pain reduce the bulge. But there was not much improvement and I had to control my diet a lot. And most of the days were very uncomfortable. I consulted Dr. Gautham SL at Grandhim hospital in Bangalore. He explained in detail about my state and asked me to go for surgery. He did laser surgery. The surgery was painless and i was discharged the next day. There was slight pain (bearable) in the night and just before passing stool the next day after surgery. After that things were ok, normal diet, but no work out, sports for a month. After a month I am back to my workouts, sports, usual diet and zero discomfort. Feels fantastic. Thank a lot to Dr. Gautham.
