What a delightful find for an ultrasound place! The radiologist, Dr. Karthik (if I remember correctly), was exceptional—probably one of the best out there. I went for a USG of the pelvis and abdomen, and it was one of the most comfortable and relaxing doctor visits I’ve ever had. He was kind, helpful, and incredibly humble. Not only was he on point, but he was also extremely thorough. I ask a lot of questions to be sure what is going on with me and most of the doctors get impatient. Not this one. He's a gem!
Fantastic experience with Dr Kartik (MD Radiology) . My husband went for a USG pelvis and abdomen, the entire process was smooth, and he was very prompt in delivering the results. He took the time to explain everything in detail.I was impressed by how they combined expertise with a caring and friendly approach. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing radiology services.
I had a really pleasant experience, the USG was done with patience and he was all ears to my queries. Docscan is clean and tidy. Dr. Kartik is a messiah for sure when it comes to how patiently he was addressing to my queries and the advices he gave will be cherished.
I had a positive experience at the scanning clinic today. Dr. Karthik, who performed the scan for my father-in-law, was exceptionally thorough and attentive. He took the time to review the patient's history and conducted the scan at multiple intervals to ensure accuracy. His patience and thoughtful recommendations for treatment were greatly appreciated. The service at the reception, handled by Vishnu, was excellent, and the nurses were equally supportive and professional. The clinic also offers convenient parking, and the facility itself is modern and well-maintained. I highly recommend this clinic for scanning and other services they provide.
I went multiple times here for blood test and scan. Dr Karthi from radiology department explained to all my queries. All staff are attending quickly and no much waiting time. Over all good experience.
Great service and Great place to do the tests. The staffs are very friendly and and very nice in behaviour. Covering multiple of tests.
Met Dr. Karthik Dattani, MD (Radio) for a second opinion but we realized his should have been the first opinion. Finally met a good doctor in Bangalore, who not only diagnoses but also listens to all patient concerns and answers questions will full transparency. Would highly recommend him over other snobbish and surprisingly under qualified doctors at big chain hospitals (yes, the first name that comes to your mind - “M”).
Good Ambience. Met Dr. Kartik and can easily recommend anyone to him. Very well spoken and knowledgeable.
Great service, on point diagnosis and very humble and helpful doctor, had some tests recommended and dr karthik helped me with those while reassuring me with positivity all the while. 10 on 10 fully recommend.
