Patient’s review from Google

  • I  was in Chennai to attend a function of one of my relatives  where I heard about this Doc's method of treating patients with advanced arthritis,I immediately called for an appointment and got it . On seeing my x-rays he suggested a treatment called PRP injections and explained the whole procedure to me.I was trilled because I never felt it could get cured with anything other than a knee replacement surgery which is very painful and requires you to be hospitalised atleast for a week and after discharge also constant pain and 6 weeks of physiotherapy  . Having full faith in my Dr. I came to Chennai  and got my treatment done for both my knees. I was discharged the same day with no medication  , no stitches only crepe bandages on both my knees which Dr.said I could remove on my own after 2 days  only restriction was to avoid climbing stairs. Today I am quite confident of traveling to Mumbai and  hope to be fit and fine in the following days and tell my friends and relatives of my treatment and encourage them to undergo this instead of the laborious  replacement. Thanks a lot Doctor .

  • I underwent Platelet rich plasma treatment (PRP) treatment to both knees two weeks ago. I am feeling better. I have travelled to Mumbai and back to Chennai. Doctor has done a good job. By the grace of God, everything will be OK.

  • Dr. A. K. Venkatachalam did Stem cell therapy and PRP for my mother, Kalpana Chowdhury, right and left both knee.. After that she got much relief from the pain. The best part about him is he listenes his patient very carefully and explains everything from what actually happens to how it could be recovered. So, I strongly recommend him and wants to thank him for his valuable advice.

  • I am from Kolkata, aged 62 yrs. For the last few years, I have frequent swelling and pain in both the knee and had a few dextrose prolotherapy in Kolkata. The relief was short lived. My latest X Ray report showed advanced Osteoarthritis (Grade 3). I came to know about Dr. A. K. Venkatachalam and had a couple of telephonic consultation from Kolkata. I came over to Chennai and had a detailed discussion with Dr. Venkatachalam. He listened carefully and was kind enough to spare his valuable time explaining the procedures to be undertaken and its long term benefits. About 5 days back Dr. Venkatachalam did a combination of Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) and Stromal Vascular Fraction (SVF) on both knee. Within 24 hours I was able to walk freely and gradually getting better every day. Dr. Venkatachalam is very friendly and his way of explanation encourages the patient very much. Indeed an excellent Doctor and I extend my sincere gratitude to him.
