Dr. Somnath Mitra

This feedback is about practo - not the doctor . Initially I tried to book an appointment through practo and it showed appointment time of 4.45 pm . I called up Manipal directly and got appointment for 3.15 pm . Them practo Also updated appointment time of 3.15 am

I went to another doctor he is clueless on issue and he keep on ordering blood tests for 4 days, and I was depressed. Luckily that doctor went on leave and transferred my case to somnath, immediately in 1 day he diagnosed root cause for my fever, that is Brucellosis. Thank you doctor.

Dear Manipal Hospital, I am writing to provide feedback regarding my recent appointment with Dr. Somnath Mitra on 2 feb, 2023. While I appreciate the opportunity to receive medical care at your facility, I felt compelled to share my concerns about the professionalism and demeanor of Dr. Somnath during my visit. During the appointment, Dr. Somnath displayed several behaviors that I found concerning. For example, when I attempted to ask questions about my father condition, Dr. Mitra seemed dismissive and rushed, providing minimal explanations and failing to address my concerns adequately. Additionally, there were instances where Dr.Mitra tone came across as condescending, which made me feel uncomfortable and unheard as a patient. As a result of Dr. Somnath, I left the appointment feeling frustrated and unsure about my treatment plan. This experience has eroded my trust in dr ability to provide compassionate and competent care. Although I have been referred to him by Dr Palankar. Even though I thought of admitting my patient under Dr. Somnath but by seeing his behaviour I can't go forward to get treatment of my father

As per Practo the consultation fees is 500/-. Doctor has instructed Medha Hospital to collect only cash and the consultation fees is 700/-. No bills given. When you go back to show reports after 2 days also he would charge 700/-. He Has to charge if the patient has come after a particular duration, he asked us to get the report. The patient don't visit, I just took the report to show as he advised and he charges me fees for the same! And why only cash? And there is no bill given. He instructs us to come with report and and charges for the same.

First of all, there is no meaning of appointment here. It is simply based on first come and first serve algorithm. Even if you reach on time with an appointment, you might have to wait for 2 hours since people who walked in will get treated first. Last time I waited for 2 hours to consult the doctor. On top of that when I asked how much time is it going to take l, the doctor started shouting in front of everyone and said this is not how it works with me. People who walked in first will get treated first and that's how you have to keep waiting and stay on his door. Keep asking that how much time more ? ** ** * * Please do not confuse people by saying appointment. It is a first come first serve basis and waiting time can be anything unknown. I immedialtely took my money back and did not meet the doctor. I decided not to go manipal Hospitals ever. Poor management, poor staff behaviour, * ** ** No doctor talks like this to the patients on a small thing.
