Apollo Hospital

I visited Bengaluru in the month of October 2022 and after consultation with one of the doctors of Basanthnagar locality's hospital, it was suggested that the set up of a stent was extremely necessary and inevitable. I was totally astonished as there were no such symptoms at all. Even regarding my vericose vein problem, there were no problems of itching, swelling or clotting etc.

Then one of my friend of Astra Zeneca gave me his reference and during consultation he elaborately described all the procedures. He almost did the colour droppler test in presence of my wife and friend himself without charging a penny. Thereafter he also drew the blood circulation path of the lower part of our body and vividly described the necessity of the stent.

Last but not the least he told us about the procedure of Angiogram and informed us that just before the operation he would perform the Angiogram test and if any blockage was detected, he would opt for its removal via the balloon treatment unless the blockage is too severe.

We were very happy with his detailed explanation and made up our mind to be operated under him.

On 18.11.22. i.e. on the date of operation and after the Angiogram, the Doctor informed me that there was no blockage, the dye was flowing very smoothly and thus there was no need for the placement of any stent. I was fully relaxed before my varicose vein operation through Laser Technology.

Now after the operation, on that very day I was able to walk slowly at late night and the recovery process is going on smoothly. On 25.11.22 after final check up with the doctor S.Narasimhan, we returned to Kolkata.

I sincerely convey my gratitude to Dr. S.Narasimhan, Dr Manju ( his Junior ) and his whole team ( I apologize for not being able to recollect their names ) for their excellent work and strongly recommend this Doctor and his team for varicose vein related problems.

Dr Narasimhan is very friendly, approachable, and always gives ample time to his patient and relatives to clear any persisting doubts. And most important thing is that most of the time he himself takes up the job irrespective of it being a colour droppler test or a simple task of bandaging.

Only thing I would like to add here is that there is a need of operation clips and hope that infrastructure will be developed by Apollo Bannerghatta Unit in near future.

I again thank Dr. Narasimhan and his team for their excellent work. May their skillful work gets known to a wider audience and prosper.

My experience with Dr. Rajashekhar KT (Orthopaedic Surgeon) and his team of doctorsat Apollo Hospital, Bannerghatta, Bangalore for my revision knee replacement (right knee) has been exceptional and heart warming.I had my Total Knee Replacement (both the knees) in 2017. The surgery was successful but I had complications during post-op surgery care which required another procedure to insert plates and rods which were later removed due to spread of swelling and infection. The swelling and pain over time became worse and made the mobility of my right leg very difficult. I wanted to know  the next course of action as there was a lack of clarity on what can be done to fix my right leg and gain my mobility. I wanted to consult a surgeon here in Bengaluru who could guide me on the right set of next steps and answer my concerns and queries. After quite a bit of research and discussions with family, I met Dr. Rajashekhar K T at Apollo Hospital. My first meeting with him convinced me that I am in good hands. He gave a detailed explanation of what’s wrong and what the surgery would entail and assured me that the revision surgery although complicated isn’t a critical one. He is always willing to hear patient's concerns and addresses them timely. He understands his patient's frame of mind and makes sure that his patient gets the best care possible. His professionalism, expertise and compassionate approach are truly commendable. The confidence, comfort and assurance that I got from Dr. Rajashekhar is something that I didn't get from few other knee specialists whom I met before consulting Dr.RajashekharThanks for performing a successful Revision Knee Replacement surgery. The post operative physio care and rehabilitation under Doctor's advice is also very satisfying.I would also like to express my gratitude to the team of Doctors starting with -Dr. Srinivasa Holla (Anesthesiologist) for going through all my previous medical history and examining all the medicines that I was taking and suggesting me on what can be continued and what needs to be stopped. All these would not be possible if you hadn't taken extra care with my several year medical history and conditions. Thanks for attending on me during the surgery with utmost care.Dr. Anil for the initial examination of my right leg condition and patiently listening to my knee medical history and suggesting the required diagnostic reports and Dr. Jyothsna, physician for the utmost care.We are also grateful to Dr.Bhat and Dr.Kartik who interacted with us, leading to the surgery.Dr. Anandu and Dr. Abdul (Physiotherapists) and all other physiotherapists who helped me walk after post-op, giving attention to flexibility and workability and taught me all the necessary exercises.Dr. Rekha (Physician Associate) who helped me with all the consultations and attended to all my concerns, doubts and queries I had regarding the treatment, surgery, post-op care.Kalpagam Viswanathan

If you have any symptoms of ‘Varicose Veins’ or any ‘Vascular’ related problems, I would definitely suggest you meet ‘Dr. Sunder’ once & believe me you will feel much better & relieved after listening to him!

I had started observing some blood clots on my feet & veins getting swollen hence started visiting for remedies. A few of the specialists suggested medications & a few of them suggested I change my lifestyle so it won’t worsen. After meeting a few specialists I wasn’t very sure to get a proper solution since the right foot was not recovering but worsening. This used to make me worried & then I learned about ‘Dr. Sunder’.

One fine day I visited him, he observed my legs for a moment, scanned the same with some instrument/machine & shown me an exact problem that is causing the blood collection/leak in the feet & explained well to make me understand the problem that is causing Veins-swelling\blood-leaking & along with the problem he also suggested me that the ‘Laser Treatment’ is the optimal solution for it.

I was very impressed with the confidence Dr. Sunder showed me during observation. He made me believe that it is not any major thing & he can get me out of it easily. I took an appointment a week later for ’Laser Treatment’ & undergone the same. I was admitted only for one day & the next day I walked out of the hospital on my own.

Post-treatment, I visited him a couple of times for review. Every time I used to go for review; I used to carry a list of questions about my day-to-day activities & everything he used to listen & answer patiently.

I am really impressed with him & feel very confident after the treatment. I cannot thank him enough in words.

THANK YOU very much DR. SUNDER for being there!
