malini ramineni2024-04-19My father is diabetic and has a wound on his right leg's second finger. We have seen numerous multi-specialists to treat him, but all of them have proposed removing the finger. Dr Rajendran sir inspected him and said there is no need to remove the finger because the drug and daily dressing can cure it. We did as he instructed, and now my father is OK, and the wound has healed. I sincerely thank the doctor. Excellent treatment. Givies importance to patient feelings. In final very good hospital , Doctors & staff.
