Patient Reviews

What patients say about Dr. Rajesh Kumar

★★★★★

Dr. Rajesh saved my life. I was brought in with a heart attack and he performed the angioplasty within 30 minutes. His calm demeanor and expertise under pressure are remarkable. I owe my life to him and the team.

I was diagnosed with heart failure and was terrified. Dr. Rajesh explained my condition patiently, adjusted my medications, and enrolled me in the cardiac rehab programme. Six months later, my ejection fraction has improved significantly.

After my bypass surgery in another hospital, I came to Dr. Rajesh for follow-up care. His thoroughness and attention to detail during every consultation gives me great confidence. He never rushes and always addresses all my questions.
