Dr. Ritesh Kauntia

Our 7-year-old daughter was diagnosed with a rare congenital kidney disorder that multiple doctors had missed. Dr. Kauntia's meticulous approach identified the issue through advanced imaging techniques. His gentle manner made our terrified child feel safe throughout treatment. She's now back to school and thriving, thanks to his expertise in pediatric nephrology.

When my 82-year-old mother's kidneys failed during emergency heart surgery, Dr. Kauntia coordinated a complex multi-disciplinary approach at Manipal Hospital. He personally monitored her dialysis sessions and adjusted treatments around the clock. His compassionate care gave our family hope during the darkest days, and mother has now regained 70% kidney function.

As a software engineer working overseas, I flew back to Kolkata specifically for Dr. Kauntia's opinion on my polycystic kidney disease. His innovative approach using targeted therapy rather than immediate dialysis has preserved my kidney function for three years longer than predicted. His global perspective on treatment options sets him apart.

During the monsoon floods, my husband needed emergency dialysis when our regular center was inaccessible. Dr. Kauntia arranged for emergency treatment at Manipal Hospital and stayed past midnight to ensure his stability. His dedication during crisis situations truly demonstrates physician excellence beyond ordinary practice.

As a 28-year-old marathon runner, I was devastated when routine bloodwork revealed rapidly declining kidney function. Dr. Kauntia didn't just treat the numbers, he worked with my athletic lifestyle, creating a personalized treatment plan that allowed me to continue training while managing my IgA nephropathy. Six months later, my kidney function has stabilized and I completed my first ultramarathon.
