Dr Indran was outstanding. He provided clear, thorough explanations of the procedure and managed my expectations exceptionally well. He took the time to ensure I fully understood each step and encouraged my questions until I felt completely comfortable. His professionalism and skill during the procedure were equally impressive.

Dr Davaagnan was exceptional. He took lots of time to reassure me and explain the procedure beforehand and was really kind and understanding about how anxious I felt . He also explained everything during the procedure really clearly … and actually in the end it was not the ordeal that I had imagined..it was not even uncomfortable .. thank you very much to him and also the lovely team that helped him and I’m sorry for making such a fuss !

The CT-guided lumbar puncture procedure with Dr. Davagnanam went extremely well. He first took time to explain the procedure in great details and recommended what I should or should not do in the hours and days post-surgery. The procedure in itself was completely harmless and Dr. Davagnanam was very reassuring. I did not experience any side effects in the hours and days that followed. I would definitely recommend him for that kind of procedures.

I felt very supported and reassured throughout the process. Dr Davagnanam took the time to explain all the procedures and after care, and had a very professional, calming manner which helped with any nerves. I felt I was in the best hands.
