मैं लंबे समय से सीने की बीमारी से परेशान थी। डॉ. संजीव राव ने सही निदान कर मुझे सही इलाज दिया। उनकी देखभाल और समर्थन ने मुझे जल्दी ठीक होने में मदद की। वह ओल्ड एयरपोर्ट रोड, बंगलुरु के सबसे अच्छे जनरल फिजिशियन हैं।

A severe fever and joint pain left me bedridden. Dr. Sanjiv Rao diagnosed it as an infectious disease that had been missed earlier. His precise treatment cured my symptoms quickly. His thoroughness and calm demeanor gave me confidence in his expertise. I'm incredibly grateful to him. I’d call him a top internal medicine specialist in Bengaluru.

ഷുഗർ താങ്ങിനിൽക്കില്ലായിരുന്നു; മിതമായ ഭക്ഷണപദ്ധതിയുമായി ജീവിതം സന്തുലിതമാക്കി. ഡോ. സഞ്ജീവിന്‍റെ പരിചരണം എന്റെ പൂർണ്ണ ജീവിതശൈലിയെ മാറ്റിയിരിക്കുന്നു. എന്റെ ആരോഗ്യത്തിൻ്റെ ഏറ്റവും നല്ല പക്ഷം ഞാൻ കണ്ടപ്പോഴാണ്.

నా షుగర్ లెవల్స్ నియంత్రణలో లేకపోవడంతో ఎన్నో సమస్యలు ఎదుర్కొన్నాను. డాక్టర్ రవి సూచించిన దిశానిర్దేశంతో చక్కగా నియంత్రణలోకి వచ్చాయి. వాళ్ళ శాంతమయిన స్వభావం రోగుల కోసం ఎంతో ప్రేరణ. ఆయన్ని ఎంత పొగడినా తక్కువే.

ನನಗೆ ಮಲಟ್ಟುವಷ್ಟು ತೀವ್ರ ಜ್ವರ ಮತ್ತು ಸಣ್ಣ ಸೊಂಟದ ನೋವು ಬರುತ್ತಿತ್ತು. ಡಾ. ಸಂಜೀವ್ ರಾವ್ ರವರು ಚುರುಕಾಗಿ ರೋಗದ ನಿರ್ಧಾರ ಮಾಡಿ ಉತ್ತಮ ಚಿಕಿತ್ಸೆಯನ್ನು ನೀಡಿದರು. ಅವರ ಸ್ನೇಹಭರಿತ ಸ್ವಭಾವ ಮತ್ತು ತಂತ್ರಜ್ಞಾನ ನನಗೆ ನಂಬಿಕೆ ಕೊಟ್ಟವು. ನಾನು ನಿಖರವಾಗಿ ಗುಣಮುಖಳಾದೆ. ಒಲ್ಡ್ ಏರ್‌ಪೋರ್ಟ್ ರೋಡ್‌ನ ಅತ್ಯುತ್ತಮ ಆಂತರಿಕ ವೈದ್ಯರು ಎಂದರೆ ಅವರೇ!

I had persistent chest pain and difficulty breathing, which made daily tasks impossible. Dr. Sanjiv Rao identified my condition as a lung infection and started an effective treatment. Within weeks, I felt like myself again. His kind and patient nature made a huge difference.
