I had severe stomach pain for months. After consulting Dr. Nagaraj Palankar, he diagnosed me with gallstones and performed a successful surgery. I’m now completely pain-free. His care and attention to detail were impressive. He is the best Gastroenterologist in India.

ನಾನು ಹಲವು ತಿಂಗಳುಗಳಿಂದ ಆಹಾರ ಹೀರಿಕೊಂಡ ನಂತರ ತಕ್ಷಣವೇ ವಾಂತಿ ಮಾಡುತ್ತಿದ್ದೆ. ಡಾ. ನಾಗರಾಜ್ ಪಳಂಕರ್ ಅವರ endoscopy ಮಾಡಿದ ನಂತರ, ಗ್ಯಾಸ್ಟ್ರಿಕ್ ಅಲ್ಸರ್ ಪತ್ತೆ ಹಚ್ಚಿದರು. ಅವರ ಚಿಕಿತ್ಸೆಯಿಂದ ನಾನು ಈಗ ಸಂಪೂರ್ಣವಾಗಿ ಗುಣಮುಖನಾಗಿದ್ದೇನೆ. ಅವರ ಸಮರ್ಥತೆ ಅತ್ಯುತ್ತಮ

मुझे लंबे समय से गैस की समस्या थी। डॉक्टर नागराज पालंकर ने जांच के बाद मुझे इर्रिटेबल बाउल सिंड्रोम बताया और दवाइयों के साथ सही खान-पान की सलाह दी। अब मैं पूरी तरह ठीक हूँ। उनका इलाज बहुत असरदार है।
