Medway Hospitals

With due respect to the age and experience of this doctor, I regret to mention that I had a pretty bad experience with him at Medway hospital. My Dad is 86 years old, he recently moved from Hyd to Chennai so I was looking for an experienced Nephrologist as his Creatine and Uric Acid levels were elevated in last six months and also he has been complaining of abdominal pain a bit. We took CMTs appointment to check him out see what they can do to avoid dialysis stage in future. The junior or intern doctor and Nurses supporting this doctor were great, they patiently took all my Dad’s history, prepared a report for the doctor so I had a positive vibe. But when we entered doctor’s room, My Dad and I were standing 5 feet away from the doctor, he saw my dad’s report a** ***** ******* ** *** ***** *** ****** ****** *** *** ********** ****** **** ****** ***** ********* ***** ** *** *** ******** **** ** **** *** ****** **** *** ******* ** ***** Being a Chronic Kidney Patient, My dad has been maintaining creatine and other levels very well, they were just elevated for last 6 months. My initial comment to the doctor was “Are you comfortable treating my Father or not”? for which he did not react. Then, after collecting his consulting fee *** *******, he referred us to Dr Dinesh, *** ** * ******* ********** he talked about Pros and Cons of Treatment options and suggested few medication with which we were happy, we had to pay for the second doctor also.

We know Dr.Balaji for his Vellore, CMC days where he was one of the key doctor in spine surgery speciality department. My father was diagnosed with cervical spondelotic myelopathy when we visited CMC,Vellore and he was advised a surgery due to the health complexities and resulting immobility without surgery. Dr. Balaji was part of the senior doctor team who performed the surgery successfully. We are really happy about the honesty and transparency in communicating the complexity , guiding us through the entire medical process, probability of success and the care which was shown to my father pre, during and post surgery which I could not have got anywhere else. It is really difficult to find good hearted doctors like Dr.Balaji. Post surgery care was really awesome and the confidence that they instilled with the patient and family was awesome. I am so happy that Dr.Balaji has moved from Vellore to Chennai as a consultant in Medway, Nungambakkam.

It's my first time visit and I must say Dr. Arun Kumar was really very nice and friendly and he explained everything and first he listens what is the patient is trying to tell. And he started with simple examinations and that too not with much of pain killers. Good place *** * **** **** ******

I have already consulted him and he is very friendly and diagnoise ********* and advices further course of action like physicio theropy.
