Dr. Kamalakannan has treated me for gastritis and is also helping me deal with the chronic issue of functional dyspepsia. I am also struggling with a health anxiety disorder which prompts me to be particular about the type of personality I seek in a physician. In addition to highest level of competence in their field, I earnestly seek compassion, patience, listening ability and strong ethics. I am very grateful to Dr. Kamalakannan who embodies all those virtues and for helping me to both clearly understand and overcome physiological & psychological issues that have been plaguing me for a few years now. Practo feedback mechanism helped me to discover him and I thank all patients who gave feedback since this helped me in my search for a suitable gastroenterologist. Through this feedback, I wish to suggest this truly great doctor for anyone seeking an excellent practitioner for consultation & cure. Also, i hail from Mahabalipuram (60km away from chennai) and have done both in person and video consultation with the doctor. I appreciate that i could consult from home when appropriate.

My father had undergone complicated anal reconstruction surgery when he was 11 months old in Trivandrum. Now, he is 64 years old, and have been remaining with good health.Last month, he suffered from severe stomach pain and constipation for a week. We consulted our doctor in Trivandrum and as per advice, took a scan to find out that there is some growth in his rectal wall and was given enema temporarily to releive constipation issues and was recommended to consult a Gastroenterology surgeon. I took them to Dr. Kamalakannan for consultation. He listened patiently to everything what we had to say, learnt my father's medical history, examined my father and explained everything very well and said there seems to be no worrisome problems. Anyways to confirm, he advised to take a pelvic CT scan and results showed that there is no such growth. Doctor's examination was perfect and matching. Still to reconfirm, he conducted a colonoscopy and confirmed that my father is perfectly alright. He prescribed very few medicines for constipation and motion control. My father was very happy and finally, we all got peace of mind. We are highly grateful for his unblemished service.

My father underwent a surgery to remove a tumor. Although the tumor was in a very difficult place and would required a removal of the pancreas. Dr Kamalaratnan very skillfully managed to remove the tumor and create a bypass. He not just saved the pancreas but also performed a 6 hour surgery without blood transfusion both before the surgery and during the 19 day stay. Dr took the time to explain the process day to day condition and also any procedures required to both the patient and family. I strongly recommend the service of the doctor. Our sincere thanks and appreciation to Dr Kamalakannan.for helping my father

I had severe bowel disturbances along with stomach bloating for nearly a month when I met Dr. Kamalakannan.
I did not have any idea what the problem was and what was the cause for that. Mr. Kamalakannan examined me well and found me suffering from functional bowel disorder and prescribed me medications.
I felt much better after taking the prescribed medications. I am still undergoing the treatment and yet to recover fully, but I am very satisfied with Dr. Kamalakannan's treatment.
Dr. Kamalakannan is a very professional, well informed and a dependable doctor. Thank you very much Doctor. I am feeling much better now and I am confident that I will fully recover soon.

Happy with: Explanation of the health issue
It was my first encounter with Dr. Kamalakannan for the gastric problems I was suffering from. He listened very patiently and put across questions and explained certain medical facts pertaining to my condition. He wrote for some tests and prescribed medication, but gave me an assurance that my condition was not alarming based on the examination he had carried out. I've gained confidence and I know that I can rely on him for further course of treatment in case I need to pursue it. A very pleasant doctor. I would not hesitate recommending him to anybody should they seek his treatment.

Dr. KamalaKanan was a kind, competent, and excellent diagnostician.
Listens to the problem. Questions to understand better. Explains how the ailment will be treated.
I went to couple of doctors who were specialised in Gastro; however they do not diagnose properly. Because they do not have much knowledge OR they do not probe the patient to understand the root cause of the disease.
He is very specific and has lot of knowledge.
I strongly recommend the doctor to the people suffering from digestive disorders.
