Dr HS Mann (neurology) prescribed additional tests amounting to Rs. 62, 000 that were unnecessary to diagnose my wife's condition. We were first sceptical of the tests when, even after 2 MRIs, he instructed us to get the XRAY and Ultrasound done. While these tests were being awaited, he prescribed more blood tests amounting to Rs. 17, 000. We decided on Day2 to go elsewhere for a second opinion. The second doctor diagnosed our condition properly by looking at the MRI and was surprised that additional tests were suggested. We demand from Fortis 50% reimbursement of the unnecessary charges for the diagnosis.

Fortis...heard a lot about hospital.But once someone get treatment really suffer.As I am suffering after my delivery(c section)
You people and your services really suck.
Parking fee 50 and above and valet is for 100rs.
What's the need of charging parking fee if are are paying valet parking fee.Its completely loot.
No humanity nothing I think you should only provide or treat nri only so that you can or I should say you are making them fool easily.
Keeping a brand name you and and you I guess forgets to maintain the name of your brand.earning is good but earning by harassing people is Bs.
Stop making people fool by giving it a hospital name.
No 5 star or 7 star property does this.

My father is being diagnosed in fortis hospital ruby park, anandapur in kolkata, from past week. He is ailing with severe liver infection and jaundice. Doc from there has given some tests to be performed by the lab technicians. I don't understand today its the 6th day and the people don't understand that the patient is ill. Daily they are saying not today, come tomorrow for this test and that test.in fact they did a whole lot of wrong set of tests in a package to get the money. How ridiculous is that. He is so old 57 yrs and still in so much weakness travelling so much to hospital. Today its worst he went and they dint let him see the doctor saying one of your reports will be tested on friday evening so come tomorrow again then only see the doctor. Is the hospital faking people or irritating people in illness. Why the consumer doesn't put a seal to such ruthless medical centers?

I was admitted at fortis hospital bannergatta road, bangalore and had to go through an emergency laparoscopy surgery on 24th March, 2017. I was released on 26th March, 2017. Before the surgery, my husband applied for cashless admission but they asked for Rs 60, 000. Finally they agreed to give the admission with a deposit amount of Rs 30, 000. The medical bill that they made at the time of discharge was of Rs 1, 42, 666 and the non medical bill that they made was of Rs 11, 559. But to my surprise, all the things of the non medical bill were also included in the medical bill. Our insurance company paid the fortis hospital 1, 40, 000 for the medical bill. But the fortis hospital dedeucted Rs.11, 559 from our deposit money i.e. 30000 though the price of most of the things of the non medical bill was paid by the insurance company. But still i haven't got my remaining money i.e. Rs 18, 441 though I should get more than that. One more thing I noticed the list of the things that they used on me when I was in the hospital is so huge that I really wonder whether all theses things were really used on me for which they had extracted money from our insurance company as well as from us too. And what about the listing of the same things in both the bills and taking money twice for the same things. These hospitals are taking advantage of the plight of the patients by making nonsense bills. How can we do treatment in this way. Please help. My UHID is WHBG.[protected]. My bill no.is ICR111830.

My dad walked into the hospital and was taken back home in an ambulance.

We met Dr. Hasmukh Ravat for breathlessness on exertion. Angioplasty was performed the very day after..following which breathless continued and even increased( which was totally ignored) and he had to be readmitted. .when we discovered to our utter shock and dismay that my dad's CBC count was never taken before the procedure. His HB was 7. To add to the shock, his XRay which showed ILD was never seen before the procedure.

The angioplasty worsened the situation and was not needed to be done considering his lungs condition as was confirmed by leading cardiologists in 2 south mumbai hospitals to whom i went for a second and third opinion. There has been a break in the protocol where not even an Echo cardiogram nor CBC was performed on a 83 year old man before the angioplasty.

We were charged 52000 wrongly which on alerted they said was a barcode error and reversed. A cousin of mine was charged 95000 as barcode error and reversed. Patient or his relatives in fortis mulund needs to pay more attention to the bills than anything else as they might be fleeced.

And the icing on the cake was when Dr. Sandeep from Dr. Ravats team accuses and spoke inappropriately that my father of lying when we confronted them of charging us of Dr Ravat visiting us everyday when he was delegating his services to just a medical student who was outright rude. The charges to the extent of Rs. 7700 was soon reversed. Dr Sonal from his team again walked into the ward with a loud intonation and arrogance. Doctors need to be taught humanities.

Nurses clearly overworked ..forgot to switch on oxygen for my dad for about 4 hrs till i noticed .saying they were very busy and stressed and apologised. Likewise the ICU.

Then comes the chest specialist. who was kind enough to tell my dad directly on his face that the has Advanced ILD and that hes going to feel only 10% better to a man who was extremely breathless now even on sitting as against a person who walked into the hospital.What a morale booster. . Am not sure this is as per your patient and relative rights. Dr. Sandeep even told me that my concerns on my dads terminal illness was of no importance to him. This is my first communication post the discharge. Certainly Not the last for the emotional, physical and financial distress and torture.

On 7th floor I visited gastroenterology department today for registration and the receptionist was very unprofessional I was the first one to register but some other patient came and he served him first he might be someone this is really unprofessional and not at all acceptable a good management is an essence of an organisation which is not the case with this particular department gastroenterology department of fortis hospital

I have booked my appointment 15 days before for Dr. Praveen Gupta, because there is no free time slot available earlier, but when i went as per my appointment schedule again you are asking me to wait for hours. Then why the hell I took appointment so many days before and why you have given me particular time slot. If you cant abide to the timeline. why you are wasting times of others in taking pre appointments and then coming according to that.

For a simple vaccination of my child in the opd of doctor Dr shantanu Bag adopted a que process and as per his words we reached at 4 pm but he got us waited there as we were not paying him the fee for his consultation as he just took fees five days back for general check up of my baby.
The hospital staff is so slow and incompetent in working that they dont even realise the value of patient time.
The worst service is given by fortis healthcare kolkata and they are just money orieneted commerical business centres.
Let the management look at the working condition of their staff otherwise they will just loose their patients who are not satisfied by their service.

my recent experience with Fortis has been an eye opener, i have realized that Fortis is totally commercial oriented with little or no regard for Patients.

My wife pain in Left chest area and Doctor Sunil Mangla recommended to shift to Fortis and keep under observation. I went to emergency and believe me the patient had to walk as there was no one available to take patient, i requested multiple times but none came . My wife was kept in CCU and later shifted to a shared ward, and they did multiple tests including HIV, and other tests which as per the TPA and the Insurance policy are not needed for Heart problems, The hospital knew well that these claims are not supported by Insurance, that is why they take advance of 10000, and they tell you that they will refund this and then they do these tests and inflated my bill even above their own original bill at time of payment. i escalted to Menakshi Popli in customer Welfare, she was not even ready to listen to the issue but started saying that hospital and its staff are not aware about what tests are needed for heart patients.

Fortis Dietician recommended a non fatty diet to my wife, but she was given Cheese and mayonaise sandwich, i am sure the mortality rate of hart patients in extremely high in Shalimarbagh Fortis.

My nephew Amarnath was admitted with a head injury in Fortis Hospital Gurgaon on Jan 10 and discharged on Jan 13. He has been under treatment of neuro surgery and cosmetic surgery departments since he was admitted. The whole experience from day 1 has been terrible. No doctor or staff tell clearly what is the problem, or what is the line of treatment, or what should be done next. Doctors give appointment but do not turn up. Stitching of wound is done badly; and stiches are opened without checking if the wound is still raw.
After two weeks of treatment, we do not know what to do next, as patient is not improving. I would like to spread the word that Fortis Healthcare Gurgaon is a ABSOLUTELY TRASH HOSPITAL meanat for money making, where neither doctors nor staff care whether patient is improving or dying.

I am Poonam my uhid 667121, I am facing problem in my spine from last three months, As a meet with Dr Deepak Joshi on 3jun 17 he justed me to do MRI for lamber as per his suggestion I did it. On the same day he check the MRI images on his system and told me I have no problem with my spine and I could do everything, jogging, running and all activities as I dont have to take any precautions, On the next day 4 Jan17 when I collect my reports it mentioned that (L5-S1 disc has small central protrusion mildly indenting the thecal sac and transversing the nerve roots). As I checked and met to the Dr next day on 5jan 17 he said as I told you, you have nothing you just put down the report in the dustbin and go back to the home without any tension, , I don't understand if I have no problem why from past three months I am in pain in my back and leg too, , Dr Deepak Joshi said it's just bcoz I am talking too much tension about my health, , so I completely disagree with him

My Name is Mr.Anil T Khushalani, a resident of Mulund, Mumbai 400080.I was admiited to Fortis Hospital at Mulund on[protected] for dengue.The bill issued to me wrongly showed a room tariff of Rs.6000/- whereas it should have been only Rs.2500/- per day.After discussion with the billing department I was given a discount of Rs.3500/- per day totalling to Rs.28000/- for a eight day stay.However this Rs.28000/- was not reduced from Room tariff but shown as a discount.The TPA of new India assurance was a clarification from the Hospital that this Rs.28000/- discount is towards room rent.The hospital has till date not given the clarification to either me (complained on[protected] or directly to MD India the TPA of New India assurance.As a result my claim has only been partially settled by the TPA.

Dear Sir,

This is with regard to my claim to refund the advance paid (Amounting to Rs 10000/-) for delivery package taken from hospital "Fortis La Femme', Richmond town Bangalore.

Detail incident

I have been consulting Dr prathima Reddy of Fortis la femme hospital. Though my expected date of delivery was in second week of December, I got unexpected pain and went to hospital on 14th November 2016. Though I was consulting Dr prathima reddy, at that point of time only Duty doctor attended me and informed me post my routine check up that Dr prathima reddy has asked me to get admitted immediately as it is my third delivery and the cervix is already 3 cm open and can deliver any time. I took their delivery package by paying an advance of Rs 10000/- on that day. As I was alone at Bangalore with my 2 kids that time (my husband working in Delhi). I informed them that I need to go home and make arrangements including my husbands arrival to Bangalore. They said its risky however on my repeated request they allowed me to go and come back post taking declaration that the whole risk is on me.
The same day my husband came at 12midnight and the next day we went to hospital and meet Dr prathima reddy for admission. But then she informed us that I can go back home and come once I get intense pain. We requested her to induce as I was staying little away from hospital and in peak hours its difficult to reach hospital. As it was 37 weeks + and as the cervix was already opened for 3 cm and it was 3rd delivery and considering the review given by the doctors previous day we repeatedly requested her to induce but she refused saying 'you should wait for the natural process' and we returned back home.
Two days later I got pain and being peak traffic hours we approached a nearbyhospital where I was delivered. Post my delivery I approached Fortis for refund of my advance amounting to Rs 10000/- which they are refusing to do.

Please help me in getting my money back as it was not my mistake in going to another hospital..

Security of icu a bald man was very rude they did not allow me to respond to a doctor request to patient enquiry. They started to argue with me I told them I am politely following doctors order yet they refused to listen. He called all patients relatives inside except me to visit my father as he decided that his duty can be used as revenge against my earlier arguments with him.

Forties hospital, vashi - 3 staff (Lady) in billing department, forced to give immediate resign by doing mental harassment by senior. However after 30 days working they are hold the staff salary. How staff will live without monthly salary. They may more gone in bad condition of mentally. If anything happen with this staff and family forties hospital will be responsible as no monthly salary. One of the staff's family member is suffering of illness of cancer. If medicine not got in time due to monthly salary problem, forties hospital will be responsible for the impact.

Dr didn't told us about the possibility of (Hernia)Surgery & after admitting also they kept the patient for 3 & half days & then told us it isn't possible to do operation.We lost 98, 000 rs without any treatment and benefits.My patient also got some extra problem and we r more depressed with the money wastage.So kindly take some proper action for it

I want to complain against a pharmacist who sits in fortis healthcare chemist shop/ outlet in B-10 market, Vasant Kunj, New Delhi. I had gone there with my mother to purchase medicines. After computing the total amount on machine n packing the medicines the pharmacist told us the amount to be Rs. 466. On giving him a Rs 500 note (old currency), he said give me a copy of your ID. On hearing this, the immediate and reasonable response from our side was that other chemist shops like Apollo r not asking for id proof for 500 rupee purchace then y needed here. He said we r taking. On hearing this we asked politely where should we get the photocopy from. His reply was "dhanyawaad aap jaaiye" . On this my mother said that had u told us properly in a reasonable manner n tone, I would have given you change also, to which he arrogantly said "dhanyawaad" again. We left thereafter. This is highly disappointing. Even though I don't hav a membership card but Over the years, I have been going to your chemist shop in b-10 to buy medicines n other products. As it is people are facing problems due to economic emergency. We understand if your pharmacists have been directed to take Id proofs but there is a proper channel to inform people for example sticking a paper near cash counter saying that we r accepting old notes provided a copy of ID is submitted, so that we can take the copy beforehand n then give it at time of billing. He told us this after computing the total amount on his machine. N even if he has not adopted this method, he can always tell the customers properly which he didn't. Please take notice of this incident so that incontinence is not caused to others.
