Patient Experience
My 80-year-old mother with complex pediatric-onset cystic fibrosis was treated by Dr. Anjana with such empathy and expertise. She coordinated with pulmonology and nutritionists—truly a holistic approach rare in today’s medicine.
Routine vaccination for my newborn felt rushed elsewhere, but Dr. Anjana took 25 minutes explaining each vaccine, side effects, and even demonstrated calming techniques. We left feeling educated, not hurried.
Our daughter’s congenital heart defect required a multi-stage surgery—Dr. Anjana’s pre-op counseling was thorough, and she was present at every post-op check, once even at 2 AM when complications arose.
I brought my 7-year-old in for a follow-up after pneumonia; Dr. Anjana remembered his fear of stethoscopes and used a warmed one. Small gesture, huge impact—he didn’t cry even once.
Dr. Anjana diagnosed my infant’s rare metabolic disorder after three misdiagnoses elsewhere. Her ability to listen to our observations and connect subtle symptoms was nothing short of brilliant.
My elderly father (with Down syndrome) had swallowing issues—Dr. Anjana adapted her communication to his level, used picture cards, and involved a speech therapist seamlessly. Respectful and effective.
After a complex bone fracture surgery, my 10-year-old needed months of rehab. Dr. Anjana checked not just the physical healing but his mental health too, spotting early signs of medical anxiety.
A simple wellness check turned into a life-saving intervention when Dr. Anjana noticed subtle jaundice in my newborn that we’d missed. Early treatment prevented liver complications.
She handled my child’s type 1 diabetes diagnosis with incredible grace—taught us carb counting using food toys and made a frightened 6-year-old feel like a ‘diabetes superhero’.
For my daughter’s epilepsy follow-up, Dr. Anjana adjusted medications based on school performance notes we provided, not just clinical numbers. Academic improvement followed within weeks.
When my son with autism needed sutures, Dr. Anjana dimmed the lights, used noise-canceling headphones, and let him hold her medical torch. The procedure was tear-free—a first for us.
At 78, I was terrified when diagnosed with colon cancer. Dr. Aravind Ramkumar explained everything with such patience, using simple diagrams. His minimally invasive surgery left barely any scars, and I was home in 4 days. His team at Manipal Yeshwanthpur made me feel like family.
Our 9-year-old needed surgery for a rare abdominal tumor. Dr. Ramkumar was a miracle worker—he spoke directly to our son in such a gentle way, even making him laugh before surgery. The precision was incredible; our boy is now back to playing cricket without any complications.
Rushed to emergency at 2 AM with acute intestinal obstruction from undiagnosed cancer. Dr. Ramkumar arrived within 30 minutes, calm and decisive. His emergency surgery saved my life—no delays, no mistakes. Forever grateful for his expertise under pressure.
After three opinions, I chose Dr. Ramkumar for my complex pancreatic surgery. His confidence was reassuring but not arrogant. The surgery took hours, but he updated my family personally. Six months later, I’m cancer-free and back to work—miraculous recovery.
First consultation for a suspicious lump—Dr. Ramkumar didn’t jump to surgery. He ordered specific genomic testing first, which showed it was benign. His conservative approach saved me from unnecessary operation. A doctor who truly cares about overtreatment.
Follow-up visit post-thyroidectomy: Dr. Ramkumar remembered small details about my job and family. He didn’t just check the incision; he asked about my energy levels, voice changes, and even recommended a nutritionist. Holistic care at its finest.
Flew from Dubai specifically for Dr. Ramkumar’s opinion on my recurrent sarcoma. His surgical plan was innovative—combined cryoablation with resection. The man is a visionary in surgical oncology. Manipal’s facilities matched his brilliance.
My mother’s palliative stomach cancer surgery was handled with such empathy. Dr. Ramkumar was honest about outcomes but focused on her quality of life. He called us on weekends to check on her pain management. Humanity above all.
The recovery process was smooth thanks to Dr. chidananda ent's expertise. Highly recommend for ent treatment.
