I was on a short trip to India alone and I suddenly fell quite sick with fever, body ache, and was unable to get up from my Hotel bed. I took a video consultation with Dr. Vigi. She was very attentive and carefully listened to me, asking clarifying questions where necessary. She then provided detailed guidance and reassurance. She subsequently also answered questions and provided additional inputs via chat. Thanks to this, I was able to catch my flight back the next day.I had a very positive experience and would recommend Dr. Vigi! Thank you doctor!

She used to give me almost half an hour of her time on call, explaining me everything and also taking an extra effort to help me manage anxiety. Her treatment worked like a charm. ** *********** ***** *********** minimal medicines given. My 105 fever was completely cured. Her suggestions to increase platelet count for dengue worked as well.

I did a video consultation for fever and body pain which later turned out to be C ovid. Dr. Viji was extremely supportive and checked up at regular intervals using the chat option at Practo to see if other symptoms are surfacing and recommended medication accordingly. She explained the entire sickness lifecycle and what to expect in the coming days and the do's and don'ts to recover quickly.I was in a remote town and without her support situation could have escalated quickly. I can't thank Dr. Viji enough for her support.

A very warm and understanding doctor. Had approached her for a small issue of congestion and she made sure to ask all possibilities of my issue including my medical history, rather than just taking my word for it and just writing a prescription for the issue that I described. Really liked her approach and I’d recommend her for consultation.

I consulted doctor Viji because I felt extremely anxious as I suspected having a disease. She was extremely logical, empathetic and patient, and I don't feel anxious anymore. She truly cares about her patients. I highly recommend Dr. Viji, and I wish I found her earlier!
I contacted Dr Viji on Practo, when I was a suspect of Covid 19. i was totally scared and just kept blabbering my symptoms to her. Her calm demeanor and patient handling gave me the courage to face truth. She is prompt with her responses and has given me best possible advise to manage my situation. I am lucky to have found * **** Doctor in her. Thank you Dr. Viji Balakrishnan. Regards, Gurjit

I took an online video consultation, and the Doctor did explain the issues based on the symptoms provided by me and gave appropriate medicinal prescription for the illness. And the prescription was so clear that i don't have a need to get back raising questions.

She seemed kind and cared about my mom. I was a little worried if it was Covid but the doctor suspected it to be UTI and prescribed medication accordingly. Fever subsided in a few days and she neither over prescribed medication or diagnostic tests. I would highly recommend her!!
