Met Dr. Karthik Dattani, MD (Radio) for a second opinion but we realized his should have been the first opinion. Finally met a good doctor in Bangalore, who not only diagnoses but also listens to all patient concerns and answers questions will full transparency. Would highly recommend him over other snobbish and surprisingly under qualified doctors at big chain hospitals (yes, the first name that comes to your mind - “M”).
