मैंने डॉ. नितिन शेट्टी से अपनी आंखों की सर्जरी करवाई थी। वह बहुत अच्छे डॉक्टर हैं और सर्जरी के बाद मुझे किसी भी प्रकार की कोई समस्या नहीं हुई। अब मेरी दृष्टि बिल्कुल साफ है।
माझ्या मुलाला डोळ्यांत हलका दुखावा होता आणि डॉ. नितीन शेट्टी यांनी त्याचे ऑप्टिकल चेकअप केले. त्यांना दुरुस्तीची आवश्यकता होती, आणि त्यांनी योग्य चष्मा दिला. आज तो खूप आरामात आहे
I had been suffering from cataract in both eyes for a while, and Dr. Shetty performed surgery with incredible precision. The whole process was seamless, and my vision has improved drastically. I’m so grateful.
ನನಗೆ ಕೆಲವೊಂದು ದಿನಗಳಿಂದ ಕಣ್ಣುಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಕಾಣುವಿಕೆಯಿಂದ ತೊಂದರೆ ಇದ್ದು, ಡಾ. ನಿತಿನ್ ಶೆಟ್ಟಿ ಅವರು ನನಗೆ ಕಣ್ಣು ನೋವು ಪರಿಹರಿಸಲು ಉತ್ತಮ ಚಿಕಿತ್ಸೆ ನೀಡಿದರು. ನಾನು ಈಗ ಚೆನ್ನಾಗಿ ಕಾಣುತ್ತೇನೆ, ಧನ್ಯವಾದಗಳು ಡಾ. ಶೆಟ್ಟಿ.

आँखों में धुंधलापन महसूस हो रहा था, और डॉक्टर नितिन शेट्टी ने उसे तुरंत चश्मा पहनने की सलाह दी। अब उसे बेहतर महसूस हो रहा है, और उसकी आँखों की रोशनी सुधर गई है। बहुत धन्यवाद डॉक्टर।
