Testimonials - What Patients Say About Us

I recently underwent a hernia operation at Kauvery hospital (and also the removal of gallbladder stones which was discovered during the scan). Since the development of the hernia was unexpected and sudden, we were advised by Dr.Sreedhara Setty about the need for a surgery. Firstly, I got the impression that I was talking to an expert specialist, which he is but his calmness and reassuring smile eased my nerves. He performed the robotic surgery and told me that it would be almost painless and recovery would be faster. The hospital staff is also very efficient and kind. The nurses were attentive and meticulous. The post operative care and advice was excellent and smooth. I was able to walk on the second day following the procedure.

Sunil King

Dr Sreedhar V Shetty and Dr Ravi Kiran, gastro and general surgeon specialist, both provided a detailed explanation, and listened to my concerns patiently. Both doctors are highly professional and have a wealth of knowledge. They handled my case very well, put me at ease, and made me feel good. Thanks to both of you.
