Patient Experience
Dr. Ganigi managed my mother's normal pressure hydrocephalus with incredible grace. When she became confused and resistant to treatment, he knelt beside her wheelchair and spoke to her like she was his own grandmother. His emotional intelligence matches his surgical skill, a rare combination.
My post-op infection was caught early because Dr. Ganigi insisted on daily video calls during COVID restrictions when others would have delayed follow-up. His proactive monitoring prevented serious complications. He even arranged for medicines to be delivered when I couldn't travel, care that goes far beyond the hospital walls.
As a fellow physician with a pineal region tumor, I chose Dr. Ganigi for his technical expertise but received so much more. He never talked down to me yet explained things with clarity that transcended medical jargon. His surgical approach balanced innovation with proven techniques in exactly the right proportions.

Our 14-year-old daughter was terrified about her first gynecological visit for severe period pain. Dr. Rao spoke directly to her (not just to us parents) and made her feel so grown-up and respected. She prescribed a treatment plan that actually works - our daughter is back to playing sports without missing school!
Emergency C-section at 2 AM - Dr. Rao arrived within 20 minutes of being called. Her calm presence during the complications saved both me and my baby. She stayed with us through the entire procedure and checked on us multiple times during recovery. Truly an angel in white coat.
After three miscarriages, Dr. Rao didn't just treat me medically - she became my emotional support system. Her personalized fertility plan and weekly monitoring gave us hope. Today I'm holding my 3-month-old because she never gave up on us.
Routine Pap smear turned into an early cancer detection. Dr. Rao's expertise caught what others had missed for years. Her surgical precision during my hysterectomy was incredible - minimal scarring and faster recovery than I imagined possible.
My fibroid surgery was supposed to be simple but turned complex due to unexpected adhesions. Dr. Rao handled the complications with such skill and confidence. Her post-op care instructions were detailed and she personally called to check on my recovery twice.
Follow-up visit after my ovarian cyst removal - Dr. Rao remembered every detail from my surgery without looking at notes. She spent 45 minutes explaining the pathology report and answering all my family's questions patiently.
Menopause consultation that actually helped! Dr. Rao didn't just prescribe hormones - she discussed lifestyle changes, nutrition, and mental health. Her holistic approach has transformed how I'm experiencing this life stage.
High-risk pregnancy with twins - Dr. Rao monitored me like a hawk. Her attention to detail caught early signs of preeclampsia and her quick action prevented serious complications. We have two healthy babies thanks to her vigilance.
Endometriosis sufferer for 15 years - Dr. Rao was the first doctor who truly understood my pain. Her surgical expertise combined with ongoing management plan has given me my life back. I'm finally pain-free!
Teenage contraceptive counseling that was non-judgmental and educational. Dr. Rao spoke to my daughter about safe choices without making her feel uncomfortable. She even provided resources for additional questions we might have later.
Postpartum depression screening that felt genuine and caring. Dr. Rao noticed subtle signs during my 6-week checkup that everyone else missed. Her referral to a mental health specialist and follow-up care made all the difference in my recovery.
Elderly mother's uterine prolapse surgery - at 82, we were worried about risks. Dr. Rao's conservative approach and minimally invasive technique had her recovering better than patients half her age. Her geriatric gynecology expertise is exceptional.
As a 42-year-old first-time mother with gestational diabetes, I was terrified of complications. Dr. Gayatri Kartik's personalized nutrition plan and constant monitoring made my pregnancy smooth. She delivered my healthy baby via planned C-section with such precision that I was walking within hours.
My 16-year-old daughter was diagnosed with severe PCOS and was losing hope. Dr. Kartik didn't just prescribe medication - she became a mentor, guiding her through lifestyle changes. Six months later, her cycles are regular and her confidence has been restored completely.
During a routine checkup at 34 weeks, Dr. Kartik detected fetal distress that everyone else missed. She performed an emergency C-section within minutes. Her quick thinking saved my baby's life - we call her our 'miracle doctor'.
I was so scared going in for my first diabetes check-up. My hands were literally shaking in the waiting room. Dr. Adarsh Ks just had this calm way about him—he explained everything in simple terms, didn't rush me, and by the end I actually felt like I could manage this. The whole 'lifestyle change' thing seems less terrifying now.
