A Feed Back from one of our patients

Cvs Subramaniam

"Very good cool doctor who listens to our problems patiently and gives medicines.

Another good quality is that he follows up with patient everyday about progress, which i like very much. This i have not found with any other doctors. This actually boosts confidence with doctor-patient.

My experience with DR. Pradyuth:-

I am 67 year old. i was taking medicines for my severe cough during night for more than 70 days . i was not getting any relief .

I came to know about Dr.Pradyuth and I consulted just 15 days back. I started taking medicines as advised by him. Now I can proudly say that I got relieved of my cough. GREAT RELIEF.

Thank you very much doctor. God bless you."
