Dr. Archana Muralidharan Reviews

My 4-year-old daughter was terrified of doctors after a bad experience, but Dr. Archana's magical way with children completely changed that. She used cartoon character masks and let my daughter 'explore' the otoscope before her ear infection checkup. We left with a smiling child and effective treatment—pure pediatric ENT wizardry!

As a 78-year-old with chronic sinusitis, I've seen many ENTs over decades. Dr. Muralidharan stands out for her meticulous approach—she spent 45 minutes mapping my sinus anatomy with 3D imaging and created a personalized irrigation protocol. Finally found lasting relief after 20 years of suffering.

Rushed to Manipal Hospital at 2 AM when my husband suddenly lost hearing in one ear. Dr. Archana arrived within 20 minutes, diagnosed sudden sensorineural hearing loss, and started steroid treatment immediately. Her emergency response saved his hearing—we're forever grateful for her dedication beyond clinic hours.

What I thought was a routine tonsil checkup turned into a life-saving diagnosis. Dr. Muralidharan spotted subtle asymmetry during examination and ordered a biopsy that revealed early-stage cancer. Her attention to detail caught what three previous doctors missed over six months.

My teenage son needed complex endoscopic sinus surgery after a sports injury. Dr. Archana didn't just perform the procedure—she created 3D-printed models of his sinus anatomy to plan the approach and even video-called us post-op at 10 PM to check his first nasal rinse went smoothly.

Came for vertigo treatment expecting quick medication, but Dr. Muralidharan spent an hour teaching me vestibular rehabilitation exercises instead. She literally got on the floor to demonstrate head movements and made me practice until I got it right. No pills, just permanent solution!

As a professional singer, my vocal cords are my livelihood. When I developed nodes, Dr. Archana collaborated with my voice coach to create a holistic recovery plan instead of immediately recommending surgery. Her conservative approach preserved my vocal range perfectly.

My 6-month-old had congenital stridor that multiple doctors dismissed as 'normal baby noise.' Dr. Muralidharan performed a gentle flexible laryngoscopy in her arms and diagnosed laryngomalacia within minutes. Her confidence with infants is extraordinary.

Flew from Dubai specifically for Dr. Archana's opinion on my rare cholesteatoma case. She reviewed my scans beforehand, had a detailed surgical plan ready, and even arranged a video consultation with my family abroad to explain the procedure. World-class care with personal touch.

Thought I just needed earwax removal, but Dr. Muralidharan noticed my slightly asymmetrical smile and ordered tests for Bell's palsy. Early intervention prevented permanent damage. She sees what others don't—a true diagnostician.

Post-tonsillectomy follow-up was supposed to be quick, but Dr. Archana noticed my abnormal pain response and discovered I had undiagnosed bleeding disorder. She coordinated with hematologists immediately—turned a routine visit into potentially life-saving intervention.

As an autistic adult with sound sensitivity, ENT visits were traumatic until Dr. Muralidharan. She dimmed lights, used sign language for instructions, and let me control the examination pace. First time I completed an ENT exam without panic attack—revolutionary sensory-aware care.

Emergency foreign body removal from my nose could have been stressful, but Dr. Archana turned it into a game for my terrified 5-year-old. She used a puppet to 'help' with the procedure and gave him 'bravery certificate' afterward. Transformed trauma into triumph!
