Heart Attack

I am a 67 year old retired banking official who is a diabetic patient. In the month of November 2022, I had breathlessness and I visited Aster RV Hospital. The Doctors - Dr.Venkatesh S was very quick to diagnose the problem as Heart Failure and his treatment was instrumental in me coming out of a very critical condition. Dr.Venkatesh immediately did Angiogram and found that there were severe blockages and since my condition at that time was not that good, Dr.Venkatesh took a very right decision to treat me medically and allowed me enough time to gain strength to withstand heart bypass surgery. Later, I had an incident of irregular heart beats on 8th Feb 2023 and I immediately contacted Dr.Venkatesh S who was kind enough to give timely suggestion. I was then admitted to Aster RV and my pulse rate was first stabilized. Dr.Venkatesh never does anything unwantedly and his decisions are always backed by scientific evidence. I was then suggested a PET scan to check if my heart tissues are alive and only upon those findings, Dr.Venkatesh S suggested that heart bypass would be a good solution for my condition. Since my heart pumping was weak, Dr.Venkatesh S again using all his experience suggested to use IABP(Balloon) to take the load off my heart during surgery. This was a very critical decision and helped the Cardio-Thoracic Surgeon Dr.Divakar Bhat during the Surgery to control the heart. Dr.Venkatesh S is a very kind and approachable doctor who is always available to the patient and their attendants. He is methodical in his approach and never does anything unwantedly. He is a thorough gentleman and a great Cardiologist with excellent knowledge and a person with a touch of humanity. I will always be indebted to Dr.Venkatesh S for his great help to our family and he is a God Sent Angel to our family. Not only our case, we have seen so many patients and families being saved by his great acumen and skillset. Dr.Venkatesh S also took a great decision of implanting ICD for my case which has the potential to be a life saver for patients like me. ICD Operation also was performed very well by his team. I owe my recovery to Dr.Venkatesh S. Entire Cardiology team is very hardworking and Dr.Venkatesh S is kind enough to take a call anytime of the day or night to help save lives. Aster RV Hospital has the best Cardiology and Cardio-Thoracic team in the world and is on par with any of the best hospitals of the world. If you are looking for Cardiac Care with a human touch, then Aster RV is the place to go.

chest pain

We visited Dr. Venkatesh for my grand father who had exertional chest pain. Dr. Venkatesh was very patient and listened to the elaborate history narrated by my grandfather. He was attentive, compassionate and did not interrupt. He was also very prudent in prescribing only the most important and required tests and did not ask for tests that will strain my grandfather. He explained the condition to us in detail. We are happy to be in the safe care of Dr. Venkatesh and would recommend him to anyone with a cardiac condition.
