I am Nagarajan from Coimbatore and I took my mom for Knee replacement surgery Prashant hospital Chennai.
We had been to hospital only for the Ortho surgeon Dr. Arumugam. The surgery went OK.
Post surgery problem started for mom. She was vomiting's and didn't get sleep though we followed his medicines.
Medicines prescribed from Dr. Arumugam damaged by Mom's intestine and exhausted electrolytes.
She was admitted in the ICU and they could NOT figure out the Intestines' problem properly.
Started the treatment but did NOT diagnose correctly, one after another problem and she was in the hospital 27 days it include 23 days of ICU stay.
Our expectation was to improve my mom's knee pain but the useless surgery made her bed ridden. and We are charged Total cost 16, 28, 793.71.
Surgery cost Rs 530646.00 then ICU charges 1098147.71
To keep it simple this hospital and doctors charged Rs 1628793.71 to make my walking mom to bed ridden. Its so ugly.
What's worst?
1. When I took my mom for knee replacement surgery to the hospital she was walking on her foot, after ICU discharge I took my mom in ambulance as she was bed ridden.
Only her eyes were moving nothing else in her body part was moving.
Medicines prescribed from Dr. Arumugam made my mom to admit in ICU and further ICU treatment
Such a worse treatment by the doctors (Raja Saravanan, Paari, Sambath) and their team. They don't have the detailed expertise in handing emergency candidate.
The doctors have consulting charges, commission in the reports, tests etc. but the only expectation from patient was care and that's what totally missing.
2. When I look at the final billing and previous day billing, I was shocked there was a huge jump.
For sample I checked the billing for One full day(I was with my mom whole day) in the normal ward, there was amount of Rs6500+ was unwantedly added.
I asked the details they were bluffing and they agreed as wrongly added. I shouted at them.
One day normal ward charges If they cheat Rs 6500, think about cheating on the 23 days ICU ward charges and total 27 days of charges.
I am educated I know what treatment happened in the whole day and figure out the cheating, I shouted at them.
What happens if an Ignorant or uneducated go to this hospital. How much they would have cheated by this time?
Why these educated fools (Doctors, Hospital management) cheating the patient's family? This is so cheap and ugly.
I am sure I will take this to next level for our sufferings and to claim the cheating money back.
I write this review as another unknown mother, unknown father, unknown sister, unknown brother should NOT suffer as like my mom.
Please don't take your beloved ones here to suffer.
