My review in 2016

The below u can find my review in 2012, and recently, have mixed feelings, I feel its become more like a profit oriented company - more money minded. with doctors advising un-necessary tests and scans etc.
If you go to emergency with stomach pain, they will say, may be its appendix problem, have to do blood test and ultra sound scanning and give you pain killer through IV and show to surgen doctor etc, who will advice for chest x-ray etc and advice to get admitted immediately for surgery.
if you get admitted, with out the knowledge of consultant doctor, the duty doctors will do all kinds of blood tests and scans and if he find any issues call those specialist and who again will advice more blood tests and scans. and try to prolong your stay as long as possible.
was one of the best before now sounds more or less like other commercial hospitals, but still a small evil compared to others bigger out there.
room charges also increased
for semi private ward ( twin sharing) - rs, 3600 / day.
nurses will try to say semi private not available go for deluxe rooms costing 5600 rs or more luxury rooms for 6850 etc.
my review in 2012

Recently had surgery. Doctor was honest, kind, patient and good experienced. Do not speak much, but answer to the queries if we have any up to the point.
The nurses and staff are helping and service minded. One junior doctor tried a few tricks to extend our stay, which I ignored and went for discharge as I have read lots about the surgery and did not see any point in staying more days. Which turned out to be good decision.The consultation charges and testing charges were reasonable and at par with other hospitals but not as much as luxury hospitals which cost almost 2 to 3 times for similar treatment.
Felt that the private room charges and deluxe room charges were on higher side and can be reduced. If for longer stay the room charges will hurt more than treatment and consultation charges
Specialist consultation charges:
General: 80 to 100 rupees / visit
Private(appointment): 180 to 200 / visit
Room charges:
General: 1200/day
Private( twin sharing) - 2500 / day
Private( single room) - 3500 / day
Deluxe( single room with tv) - 4500 / day
Plus 12.5% luxury tax for room charges.
Outpatient consultation 8 to 1 pm, its crowded and doctors keep come and go after seeing a couple of patients for breakfast etc. Have to wait a few hours for your turn.
