Dr. Manjunath Haridas

Words are short while writing this note to express our humble gratitude to Dr. Manjunath Haridas. It's about a fatal road traffic accident (RTA) of a 27-year-old young man, one of our family members, in Whitefield, Bangalore. His friends have taken him to Emergency of Manipal Hospitals Whitefield (MHW) on accident night. The patient's right side lower abdominal, and pelvic were severely damaged, and the situation was critical. The following early morning, Dr. Manjunath Haridas received SOS from the hospital and rushed to the operation theater (OT) because there was a requirement for emergency surgery to save the life. Unfortunately, injuries were more critical than estimated from the X-ray, CT & other lab reports. Dr. Haridas not only assessed the actual damages inside the body but also restructured the badly deformed areas as much as possible and prevented further deterioration in the first and foremost surgery of the patient. He created the opportunity, foundation, and pathway to act on saving the life of a critically injured trauma patient. Easier said than done. Imagine a surgeon, with no accurate information about the amount of damage inside the body, with no conventional surgery plan, enters into the operation theater, spends hours, and comes out after restraining the out-of-control situation. Such an exceptional attempt needs knowledge beyond the textbooks, experience beyond exposure, and excellence beyond competence. The best example of a surgeon and a professional with the above qualities is Dr. Manjunath Haridas; he identifies problems, figures out the best solutions, plans the treatment well, and, more importantly, executes carefully and smoothly based on the patients' response. Our patient has undergone a series of surgeries by Dr. Haridas during the long course of treatment. A couple of them were on thin ice but performed fair and square. Dr. Haridas can establish a conventional solution to any non-conventional problem. Also, it is challenging for an emotionally broken family to handle such a traumatic situation. After Bhagwan (the God), next comes a doctor. In addition to all his professional excellence, Dr. Haridas is more than humble, caring, and friendly; he is a person of high integrity, ethics, and values. Human potential is four-dimensional - Body, Mind, Heart, and Spirit. Dr. Manjunath Haridas uses his full potential in all the dimensions for his patient and family. We wish him a happy, healthy, and long life to serve and save many needy lives. If you are a patient of Dr. Manjunath Haridas, trust us, and thank God that you are in the best of hands. Siddhartha and family

I highly recommend the doctor. I will explain why I have used highly recommended. 26/08/18 - My mother had undergone laparoscopic surgery(My Hometown not in Manipal hospital) for the stone she had in gallbladder. Doctor removed gallbladder. After gallbladder removal she had lot of stomach pain and due to the bile leak (some sort of liquid which helps in digesting fatty food) her stomach was blotted. We went to the same doctor he made few inches of cut in stomach and taken out almost 2 liters of bile. She felt little well. Doctor added a drainage pipe which was coming out of stomach and said it will be stopped in few days, we waited for almost 2 weeks nothing happens bile leak still continued. I was worried and I called my mom and dad to bangalore immediately. 03/10/2018 - we met Dr. Manjunath Haridas, He saw the drainage and explained (Pictorial explanation) what all the possible problems she may have. He suggested for MRCP scan, Abdominal ultrasound and few lab tests related to that area. It took a while After seeing the report he confirmed there is a common haptic duct injury which has happened during the past surgery. He recommended hepatojejunostomy this is surgery related to the treatment of bile duct. 08/10/2018 - Dr Manjunath Haridas has successfully completed the major surgery. He is very humble and kind doctor. He makes patient feel good all the time. My mom was admitted in hospital for 8 days he used to come every day to meet with her and he used to motivate her everytime. Pre surgery, during surgery and post surgery the support he has given was speechless. My mom is good now we usually go to meet doctor every week. Thanks a lot to Dr Manjunath Haridas. God bless him.

We had a very positive experience with Dr. Manjunath Haridas. Despite him being located far from our residence, we chose him based on his expertise—and it proved to be the right decision.My father underwent robotic abdominal wall hernia repair under his care, and the surgery was successful with a smooth recovery. His confidence, clarity, and strong command over GI procedures gave us a lot of reassurance.Based on this experience, we again consulted him for my mother’s laparoscopic gallbladder stone surgery, and the outcome was equally excellent.Dr. Manjunath is highly skilled, professional, and explains things clearly, which builds trust and comfort for patients and families.Highly recommended for advanced GI surgeries, including robotic and laparoscopic procedures.

Dr Manjunatha can be completely trusted with his expertise. His confidence and demeanour made me opt for my gallstone removal surgery at the earliest. He has a knack of simplifying complex issues into easy language for his patients. I would definitely recommend him.
