Write a ReviewHexaHealth helped manage appointments,admission,and hospital coordination while Dr Jaka focused on treatment. The process felt smooth and well organised during a stressful time.
I underwent treatment for breast cancer under Dr Rajshekhar’s care. He explained all treatment options patiently and helped me understand the benefits of robotic surgery. His confidence and calm communication made a very difficult journey manageable.
Dr Rajshekhar explained the robotic procedure in detail and ensured I felt comfortable before surgery. The recovery was quicker and less painful than we expected. Very satisfied with the care.
My mother required surgery for a gynaecological malignancy. Dr Jaka guided us through investigations,treatment planning,and surgery with great professionalism. The outcome has been very positive and recovery is going well.
What stood out was how Dr Rajshekhar coordinated with medical and radiation oncology teams. We always felt the treatment plan was comprehensive and well structured.
