I was suffering from chronic sinusitis for years, and Dr. Sampath Prasad recommended sinus surgery. The procedure was seamless, and my symptoms improved drastically. His expertise and care were exceptional. He is the best ent doctor in India.
मुझे लंबे समय से कान में सुनाई देने की समस्या थी। डॉ. संपथ चंद्रा प्रसाद राव ने सही तरीके से जांच की और मुझे बेहतर इलाज दिया। अब मैं पहले से बहुत अच्छा महसूस कर रही हूँ।
ನನಗೆ ನಾಸಿಕದ ಶಸ್ತ್ರಚಿಕಿತ್ಸೆ ಮಾಡಿಸಬೇಕಾಗಿತ್ತು. ಡಾ. ಸಂಪತ್ ಚಂದ್ರ ಪ್ರಸಾದ್ ರಾವ್ ಅವರು ಶಸ್ತ್ರಚಿಕಿತ್ಸೆ ನಿಖರವಾಗಿ ಮಾಡಿದರು, ಈಗ ನನ್ನ ಉಸಿರಾಟ ಸಮಸ್ಯೆಗಳು ಪೂರ್ಣವಾಗಿ ಕೊಂಡಾಡುತ್ತಿವೆ. ಅವರ ಚಿಕಿತ್ಸೆ ಬಹಳ ಅನುಕೂಲಕರವಾಗಿದೆ.
Mujhe constant sore throat rehta tha, phir Dr. Sampath ne meri tonsillectomy kiya. Unka treatment bahut professional aur personal touch ke saath tha. Main ab bilkul thik hoon aur problem kabhi wapas nahi aayi.
Avevo un problema con le adenoidi da molti anni. Dr. Sampath ha raccomandato la rimozione, e ora respiro molto meglio. È stato un medico molto professionale e attento ai dettagli.
Ningala kande sinus problem undaithu, Dr. Sampath nammaga surgery madthand, aarogya ippude kaalari thulugaithu. Avarna kede aashirvad avathu kade ashvasa maddkai, tulu sulpu naadpuna neruna undu.
Maka deviated septum disturba kela, and ani Dr. Sampath nasal surgery keli. Surgery ekdum success zali, ani maka aata normal breathing karta yetta. Doctor ekdum suvikshik asa.
എനിക്ക് ക്യാൻസർ തൊണ്ടയിൽ കണ്ടെത്തി. ഡോക്ടർ സാംപത് തൊണ്ടക്കുറിവിനുള്ള ശസ്ത്രക്രിയ നിർദ്ദേശിച്ചു. ശസ്ത്രക്രിയയിൽ നിന്നും പൂർണമായും സുഖം പ്രാപിച്ചു. ഡോക്ടറുടെ പരിചരണം മനോഹരമായിരുന്നു
मम कर्णे दीर्घकालीन विकारः आसीत्। डॉ. संपथेन कर्णशल्यकर्म उचितं कृतं, तेन सः पुनः सामान्यरूपेण श्रवणं कुरुते। सः खलु अत्युत्तमः वैद्यः।
