After my diagnosis of breast cancer, I was overwhelmed. Dr. Ravi Diwakar patiently explained the treatment options. With his support, I went through chemotherapy and felt empowered. Today, I’m cancer-free and full of life. He is the best Oncologist in Bangalore.
मेरे पिताजी को लिवर कैंसर का पता चला था। डॉ. रवि दीवाकर ने उनकी स्थिति को समझते हुए हर कदम पर मदद की। कीमोथेरेपी के दौरान उनकी देखभाल और सहयोग ने हमें हिम्मत दी। हम उनके लिए हमेशा आभारी रहेंगे।
Mere husband ko breast cancer hua tha. Dr. Ravi Diwakar ne unhe chemotherapy se treat kiya aur har waqt hamein support kiya. Unki care aur empathy ne humein bahut comfort diya, aur ab wo bilkul theek hain.
जब मुझे फेफड़ों के कैंसर का पता चला, तो मैं बहुत चिंतित था। डॉ. दीवाकर ने मुझे उपचार के सभी विकल्प समझाए। उनकी सकारात्मकता और विशेषज्ञता ने मुझे सही दिशा दिखाई। अब मैं ठीक हूँ।
When I learned I had lung cancer, I was devastated. Dr. Diwakar's approach was comforting. He guided me through targeted therapy, and his care made all the difference. I’m grateful for his expertise and kindness.
Jab mujhe stomach cancer ka diagnosis hua, toh sab kuch thoda overwhelming laga. Lekin Dr. Diwakar ne mujhe samjhaya ki kya karna hai. Unke guidance se maine apni treatment shuru ki aur ab main behatar mehsoos kar raha hoon.
Being diagnosed with lymphoma was tough, but Dr. Diwakar made the journey manageable. His personalized treatment plan and constant encouragement during my radiation therapy kept my spirits high. I can’t thank him enough!
Mere dost ko Hodgkin’s lymphoma hua tha, aur hum Dr. Ravi Diwakar ke paas gaye. Unhone unka comprehensive treatment plan banaya. Unki professionalism aur care ke liye hum hamesha unke shukraguzaar rahenge.
