Sakra Testimonials

My father, Mr. Samir Chandra Banerjee, aged 66 years, recently underwent a neuro rehabilitation at Sakra World Hospitals under the able guidance of Dr. Anchal Joshi. 

My father is a resident of Kolkata, West Bengal. He slipped and fell down last year causing a subdural hematoma so severe that he was bedridden for almost 2 and a half months. He being a diabetic for past 25 years, took a lot of time to recover and get back to his daily routine as he also got detected with peripheral neuropathy. 

We were aware of Sakra's rehabilitation program as my father-in-law Mr. Dipak Chattopadhyay had also undergone a lung rehabilitation this year under Dr. Komal and was hugely benefited by it. So this time, when my father came visiting in Bangalore, I enrolled him with the neuro rehabilitation program. He was getting physiotherapy done while in his native.

My father immensely enjoyed the exercises with Dr. Anchal. Thanks to her for being so full of life and emphathetic. She understood the nerve of the patient and was always trying to motivate him to exercise and recover faster. She also figured out quite fast that it is his temporary loss of operational memory that's causing him to take more time to learn how to have a proper gait , how to walk with a stick and instructed us to give him verbal instructions while he is walking every time. This is something I am really glad she noticed and informed us. This is where we were lacking expertise in. Because till then we were thinking it is muscle weakness that is making my father take so long to get back on his feet and have balance. 

After her instructions, we continued giving verbal cues to my father and he started walking much better at home. Overall, the 2 and a half weeks he came to Sakra for exercising, his spirits went up, his motivation to get back to his normal life got aroused and his muscles got strengthened. He is able to walk more confidently than before. We are very thankful to Dr. Anchal and the whole unit for being so amazing at their work.

We would like to come back again with our senior citizen parents everytime they visit us in Bangalore because this unit will really help them with their orthopedic problems and energize them for a better life.

Please convey my best regards to everyone. You guys are doing an inspiring work!
