Write a Reviewडॉ. राव महाराष्ट्रातील सर्वोत्तम सर्जिकल ऑन्कोलॉजिस्टपैकी एक आहेत यात शंका नाही.
His surgical skill is truly exceptional; the operation went smoothly, and my mother's recovery has been faster than we anticipated. He has a way of instilling hope and confidence, which is so crucial when dealing with cancer. Highly recommend him for his expertise and compassionate approach.
His confidence and calm demeanor before the surgery put me at ease. The recovery was arduous, but Dr. Rao's guidance and his team's constant support were invaluable. He is not just a surgeon; he is a lifesaver. My gratitude knows no bounds.
शस्त्रक्रियेनंतरची त्यांची काळजी आणि रुग्णांशी बोलण्याची पद्धत खूप दिलासा देणारी होती. आज माझा भाऊ पूर्णपणे बरा झाला आहे आणि त्याचं श्रेय पूर्णपणे डॉ. राव यांना जातं. ते खरोखरच एक महान सर्जन आहेत.
उनके ऑपरेशन के बाद पिताजी अब बिल्कुल स्वस्थ हैं। डॉ. राव सिर्फ एक सर्जन नहीं, बल्कि एक सच्चे मार्गदर्शक और बहुत अच्छे इंसान भी हैं। उनकी वजह से हमारे परिवार को बहुत राहत मिली।
