[Resolved]  Apollo Hospital, Greams Road, Chennai — Bad operation

My husband is operated for synovial chondromatosis (Calcium crystals removal) in right leg(knee) by Dr.Saravanan (ortho) last year in Greams road Apollo. But till date he s suffering a lot. The operation was not done well. Half the crystals remain in the knee. Maybe this doctor is not an expert in it. He could have refused to do it. I dont know why he has taken my husband for granted. He spoke so well, charged Rs.75,000. But no use.

After two months we found the truth, we have operated his left leg(knee) by an expert Dr.David rajan from Kumaran hospital. He has done an excellent operation. All the crystals in left leg is removed. He has charged only Rs.55,000. We are greatly indebted to him.

Now after one year we are reoperating his right leg by this expert. Just imagine how much pain it is for us. He has to take rest for two months, do physiotherapy to straighten his leg. How much are we suffering. Its not so easy to bear the pain. God will only have to teach these like Dr.Saravanan(ortho). He s graduated F.R.C.S from London. What s the use. He has used my husband as a test piece. Beware of such doctors. Dont think all doctors in Apollo are experts. There are exceptions. Find the background of this doctors. Finally its we who are at loss.

I storngly agree. I had similar experience with Dr.Suri Narayanan (Ortho) in Apollo Hospital (Greams road, Chennai). We were told that this gentleman was performing some kind of surgery for Tamilanadu Governor as well. This gentleman doctor will not talk to patients/or relatives and he does not even know that he has to answer few questions that the patient might be having.
Actually, in first place, we admitted our relative in Apollo through a common friend...later we came to know that he is an agent to Apollo hospital. Most of the times, when we could not even talk to Dr.Suri...we have to call this "agent" who in turn will talk to the doctor and relay the answer back to us. We then just realized that he must be an agent and some employees are also confirmed that.
Not just doctors, but the employees are also not doing their jobs on time. When I gathered some details, one of the employee told that the employee (i.e. nurse and room attendant) & patients ratio is very less due to which one employee has to attend ~20 patients which is near-impossible for a human being. They are being asked to overwork most of the days due to which their personal life gets miserable and they are very impatience to patients which ends in very poor quality of service.
We originally decided to go to Pallava Hospital (Ashok Nagar) and Dr.Selva is one of the experienced and kind doctor.
This is about MURALIDHaR RAJAGOPAL (dermatalogist) APollo greams road, and adayr...He is really a psycho doctor. God will kill him.
