Patient’s review from Google

  • Dr AK Venkatachalam Sir is a great human I have ever met. I cannot forget him life long as Sir help me in every aspect. My mother-in-law was suffering with severe arthritis from past 10 years. She came to position that she cannot walk for few steps and no proper sleep for few hours every day. I consulted many reputed Artho Doctors in Hyderabad. Nobody gave me assurance that she can do normal routine post knee transplant. Finally by god grace my colleague referred me AK Venkatachalam sir. After contacting Venkatachalam Sir, I was completely relieved from all mental stress. My mother-in-law felt very happy and peaceful after consulting Venkatachalam Sir. Knee transplant surgery was super success, within few hours post surgery she started walking with little support. We all were totally surprised with her transformation before and after surgery. She is very happy now and doing all routine. She is doing quick walk with my kids and carrying them with her hands. For any kind of Artho problems, please don’t give second thought, just go and meet AK Venkatachalam sir. Trust me, he will take care of your problems and make you happy. I don’t have words to define how much help Venkatachalam Sir did to our family. I prey for you everyday sir, for your long life and strength to fill happiness in many families.

  • My wife (72 y) has knee osteoarthritis, mainly in left knee and less in right knee; she has suffered bouts of left knee locking for about 2 years, but she has no pain (luckily). In light of my wife not having pain or other issues, we did not want to go for TKR-type major surgical intervention. Recently we heard about Dr AKV in Chennai and his expertise in PRS-based treatment of knee arthritis. Dr AKV examined my wife and offered biological - (stem) cell - therapy option and explained the details and basis of PRS procedure. As both my wife and I have been scientists, we could understand well and it appealed to us as a simpler, worthwhile treatment option. She underwent the procedure at the end of July (about half a day at CMMH, Mylapore) and after 3 days, we flew back to our Mysore home. She is about to complete the 6-week duration of doctor-suggested restrictions to allow for internal healing. She has not had any problems or discomfort during this period and is ready to get back to her normal routines. Dr AKV is very friendly, gives adequate time to respond to patient's queries and concerns. Overall, it has been a very reassuring process and we are hopeful of good outcome of this treatment. N.

  • I visited Dr. Venkatachalam in 2010 and he did a right knee replacement for me. He did an amazing job for me. it allowed me to have a new lease on life. I was able to go back to work and once again do activities like skiing, biking and even some soccer. I am so grateful to this wonderful doctor and kind man.
