Dr. Chandrashekar is indeed a great orthopedic surgeon! He truly is just a surgeon and nothing else. read my words! he only believes in & is interested in one mode of treatment - which is to cut open & fix.
I went to him for a pain in my knees. Firstly I had to wait for over an hour inspite of an appointment I took weeks in advance. Then finally when I thought my turn came, even before I could explain my problem to him for less than a minute, he was called for some surgical procedure. I was seated in his chamber at Sakra for over 45 minutes but barely could interact with him for 2 minutes! this was because the moment he came in he used to be called back to the OT. This continued. and finally, when he did settle down, I could sense the absolute LACK OF INTEREST he had in treating a nonsurgical case like mine! her suggested a Physio therapy for me and got out finally.
Doctors please look at patient beyond surgery candidates! or advise that you are NOT INTERESTED in patients who seek nonsurgical treatments. I understand surgery fetches both doctors & the hospital lot of money, but that doesnt mean you should neglect others, of course we are also patients!
