Patient Experience
My dad was in for a bad stomach bug that just wouldn't quit. We were all worried, especially my mom. Dr. Keerthan sat us down in his office and drew a simple diagram on a notepad to explain what was happening. He didn't just talk to us; he listened. He answered every single one of my mom's anxious questions without rushing her. He made sure we understood before we left. That meant more than any medicine.
Had a stubborn skin infection on my leg. Went to Star Hospital. Parking was a hassle, had to circle twice. Saw Dr. Keerthan. He looked at it, asked a few questions, prescribed a cream. It cleared up in a week. No fuss. He was direct, which I prefer. Got the job done.
I brought my little daughter in because she had a high fever that scared me. The clinic was busy, and we had to wait a bit, but when Dr. Keerthan came in, he had such a calm way about him. He spoke softly, first to my daughter to make her smile, then to me. He explained everything in a way that didn't make me feel silly for being so worried. He has a very kind manner. We left feeling much lighter.
Wow, what a difference! I'd been dealing with this nagging back pain for months, tried a couple of other places with no luck. My friend finally pushed me to see Dr. Keerthan. From the first appointment, he was so thorough! He actually figured out it was a posture thing from my desk job. Gave me some exercises. I'm three weeks in and I feel like a new person. So relieved to have my life back!
