Testimonials

“From last 2 years I had been suffering from AVN. Because of which I suffered from immense pain in my hip and thigh area. Eventually I came to know that my left hip ball is destroyed and need to be replaced. Consulted 3-4 doctors. Then came across Dr. Srikanth. He guided us and educated us on hip replacement surgery. Thankfully I got it operated from Dr. Srikanth. The surgery was quite a success. And I am so happy that I do not have the same pain now. Dr. Srikanth , even post surgery has always addressed my queries and concerns.”

” Here is my experience that i would highly recommend Dr Shreekantha Rao for all the patients who is need of an Orthopaedician. This doctor brief’s about each and everything in detail to his patients. Recently i had an ACL tear in my left knee while getting down from the stairs and i consulted couple of well known doctors in the corporate hospitals such as apollo and manipal hospitals, but in both the hospitals i wasn’t satisfied with doctors consultations and cost for an ACL reconstruction in these corporate hospitals are close to an open heart surgery. Later i visited Dr. Shreekantha Rao clinic and the doctor breifed me about the injury in detail through Power point presentation and also explained that what type of surgery will be done for ACL reconstruction. Finally the surgery was done successfully as insisted earlier, and i was able to walk the next day after the surgery and was discharged from the hospital with in one day.”
