Arka Anugraha Hospital - Laparoscopic Surgery and Functional Medicine Hospital (Arka Health) Reviews

Dr. Ramesh sir and tulip ma'am at arka anugraha hospital provided exceptional care. Dr. Ramesh sir was outstanding as his expertise and kind approach made me feel very comfortable, the hospital staff was supportive and efficient.

Very good hospital where doctors really care. I really like the Integrative approach to health. The staff is also superb.

Its unbelievable that one can have such an excellent experience in a Hospital, I can’t even point out a single drawback during our stay in the hospital. My father was admitted for a kidney surgery and I cant believe everything went so smoothly. I can say confidently surgeon Dr.Ramesh is one of the best if not the Best in the country and he took care of every minute details and made sure everything is fine. Along with Dr. Tulip and Dr.Manohar. About the hospital and facilities ,it’s the best you can get in Bangalore, Rooms are clean and spotless, Rooms are airconditioned and beds are motorized everything works flawlessly including guest Wify, believe me you can watch movies in HD ,All the staffs are very friendly and helping, there is always someone to attend you and help you during the stay. Very good pharmacy and we never had to go out for any medicine. I thank them for taking care of my father so well.

Dr. Smrithi Bhagiratha is one of the most courteous child specialist to come across. She takes lot of effort to do complete assessment of the kids. She makes sure every observation goes into the report she prepares, this will really help everyone to get a good glance at history of the kids. Arka is the only place which didn't hurry up to collect the consultation fees as soon as you register for appointment.. Fee is charged upon consultation with doctor.

I recently had a consultation at Arka Hospital with Dr. Gaurang, and I couldn't be more impressed with the level of care and service I received. The facilities were top-notch, and the medical staff were both professional and compassionate. A special mention goes to Tanushree from the administration team. Her exceptional management and coordination skills made the entire process seamless. From scheduling appointments to handling paperwork, Tanushree ensured everything ran smoothly and efficiently. Her friendly and approachable demeanor also helped ease any anxieties I had. Thank you, Arka Hospital, Dr. Gaurang, and especially Tanushree, for making my visit as stress-free as possible. Your dedication to patient care is truly commendable.

I had a very bad neck pain when i visited arka anugraha hospital they treated me really well especially physiotherapy department by Dr.rajasree and team my pain got reduced and I'm completely fine now Thanks for giving great service,love and affection during my sessions

Excellent team of physiotherapy (Dr. Rajasree K and team) and functional medicine (Dr. Gaurang Ramesh and team)

I have undergone Hernia and Hysterectomy both surgeries at a time in last week of May, 2024 Dr Ramesh and Dr Saraswati both are true experts in their field. They patiently explained the procedure, answered all my questions thoroughly, and put my anxieties at ease. Heartfelt thanks to both of them. The entire staff at the hospital are very friendly. The nurses were attentive, compassionate, and always available to address any concerns. Recovery process was smooth thanks to their expertise. The hospital itself was clean, modern, and comfortable. The facilities were excellent, and the food was very good!

Revising my earlier review with update and one more star. This is my experience with this hospital and doctor. Others may have had a different experience. I'm sure Arka is a very good hospital. It comes highly recommended and it's alternative treatment options highly sought after. Unfortunately the experience is totally ruined by disinterested admin/appt staff with low/poor/mis-information. * Terrible experience with junior staff of Dr. Gaurang (name Monisha) who schedules appointments. Gave me three appointments (one each for three weeks) and cancelled each at last minute putting ailing patient at risk and making them travel from outside Bangalore each week. WHY DO YOU GIVE APPOINTMENTS WHEN YOU KNOW DOCTOR IS TRAVELLING & NOT AVAILABLE? * Very inefficient and unproductive - took 19+ calls and innumerable WhatsApp and Emails but still not seen Dr. Gaurang yet. * Insistence on Skype for virtual appointment (which didn't happen anyway) and didn't give the option of easy WhatsApp video call when requested - necessitating patient to travel for appointment. * CHAOS & DANGEROUS MISINFORMATION: At one point they told me appointment will be kept and the doctor's PA will take the appointment and assess what next steps are. Shocked. UPDATE: I was informed that not PA but it's an Ayush doctor with a degree in Naturopathy (after many questions from me). Still info misrepresented that this is a medical Doctor. BTW she was so angry that a patient had //dared// to ask about her qualifications and was even more angry at my refusal to address her as 'doctor'. Irony #1: I have the greatest respect for alternative medicines especially naturopathy over other alternative streams. Irony #2: Got to know I was given wrong information to meet Dr. Gaurang when I was actually supposed to meet a different doctor!! Monisha did not know that the other doctor even exists but was happy to instead tell/misinform me only Dr. Gaurang is there for this purpose and I have no option but tofirst meet him and then get referred/connected to any other doctor! Atleast finally Tanushree was able to set up an appointment with the correct doctor and clarified all other misinformation.

While the surgery went well and great hospitality was extended they have failed in one critical area of Insurance claims. While the advisor in the hospital said the insurer would pay for 80% of the surgery costs I was shocked to see that many of the charges were disallowed by the Insurance company and I landed paying for them. I hope that they communicate about the costs clearly. In the end I would certainly recommend the hospital to everyone.

The doctors at Arka Anugraha Hospital are undeniably skilled, deserving a full 5 stars. The facilities are also impressive, another 5 stars. But that's where the positives end. The reception staff here is like a black hole – it sucks all the goodwill out of the place. This isn't just a one-time thing. Every. Single. Visit. (Including my most recent one on May 6th, 2024 around 2 pm) has been marred by the receptionists' complete lack of regard for patients. They'd rather be glued to their phones than acknowledge you exist. It's infuriating, especially when you're dealing with time-sensitive medical needs. On this last visit, my mom and I stood at the reception like absolute fools for over 15 minutes. The receptionist? Oh, she was blissfully occupied with her phone the entire time. Not a single glance our way, not a peep of "can I help you in a moment?". This is the kind of service that makes you want to scream. Look, if you can stomach potentially hostile front desk staff, then the doctors and facilities at Arka Anugraha might be okay for you. But for me? **Never again.** And frankly, I wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy. There are other hospitals out there that can offer excellent care without the added frustration of feeling completely ignored.

I m looking to give a minus marking on the way the appointment is being handled by the reception and the dept coordinator Tanushree, it is extremely unprofessional as I have been told thrice that I would be informed in next two minutes when I first called them at 09:30 am in morning on 23rd March but it's very unfortunate and disappointing that in return I had to call 5 times to fix appointment with Dr Gauran Ramesh ! Veery very unpleasant experience just to book an appointment, after twice I reminded the lady Tanushree, I got an email confirmation of the appointment for Monday. I am hopeful hospital management should consider this review and take necessary action for educating the team who are the first responders to a patient / patient party.
