Very hospitable and soft spoken..glad to have been treated by her.
My mother was diagnosed with cellulitis and her hand was swollen and she experienced a lot of pain. Upon recommendation from our general physician, we consulted Dr. Sanjitha at Apollo Jayanagar. We had a great experience with her. At the very beginning she made my mother comfortable in the way she interacted with her. Following a very thorough examination she recommended certain exercises and medications for my mother which helped her greatly. Her swelling decreased in a week’s time and the pain has also come down significantly. Most importantly there was no surgery required. Her reassurance during this entire phase and the confidence she gave to all of us was noteworthy. Highly recommend Dr Sanjitha.
Dr. Sanjitha perfomed my surgery and treatment was done with utmost care. She explained the issue in detail to us and made us aware of the options available for treating the same. I was diagnosed with abscess with pain and feverish symptoms. She completed the surgery very professionally and took great care to ensure that there was very minor/minimal scar arising out of surgery. She personally completed every dressing session post surgery which was for about a month and very closely monitored the progress of my health and healing of the wound. I was very comfortable to approach her with my queries and seek help. I thank her for her efforts and helping me recover fast.
