I visited two-three days ago for the first time. The system and facilities here are remarkable. My family comes here for treatment. Patients come from Karnataka and other parts India, as well as from other parts of the world. On behalf of everyone, I thank Dr. Devi Shetty and other doctors, nurses, those in the administration, the staff - all those who make it succussful despite it being tough for all due to Covid-19".
"I hope life will be back to what it was two years ago. Medicine, hospital is beyond everything. You may be a cricketer, film star, businessmen but the end of the day your body and health is important. Such a pleassure to come here. I cannot explain just by speaking about the hospital facility", he further said.
