My wife was admitted to Apollo Hospital Bannerghatta during July 2023 due to emergency health condition, where it was diagnosed to be left frontal meningioma. She was under the care of Dr Karthik Revanapa, who successfully performed craniotomy to excise meningioma completely.
Though she could walk two days post surgery, was advised bed rest for around one/one and half month as she had hurt T3-T4-T5 part of her spine during the emergency health situation. She could resume her normal activities with-in 3 months of surgery.
Our heartfelt gratitude to Dr Karthik Revanapa for his humility, constant assurance, guideline and motivation which helped to recover fast.

I am 35 years old male, suffering from chronic back pain, with weakness in hand. I was initially miss-diagnosed for 8 months in Tokyo, Japan. I was referred to Dr. Kartik by a local orthosurgen in my town in India.
I had consulted a couple of other surgeons before meeting Dr. Kartik . Everyone miss diagnosed and scared me that spinal surgery is must! And, I shouldn’t even be stepping out of hospital.
But, Dr. Kartik suggested correct scans & tests, did diagnosed my disease properly & swiftly. Dr. told me clearly how we can avoid complex spine surgery.
I am very glad to have met the doctor who could treat me with minimal invasive treatment.

I had disc bulge and disc degeneration (L5-S1) for over a decade with multiple episodes of severe back pain. I had developed leg pain over the past six months that became so excruciating that I was unable to stand or walk for more than a few minutes. I am a 31-year-old working woman, and this completely disrupted my personal and professional life. While I consulted several doctors, tried medication and physiotherapy, it was all in vain, until I consulted Dr. Kartik Revanappa and realized the severity of my condition. Dr. Kartik explained that the disc was severely compressing my nerves at the L5-S1 level, and advised for a lumbar decompression surgery to relieve the pressure. He patiently explained the entire procedure to me with all details and stages of recovery. He was available to answer my queries at all hours, both before and after the surgery.
I was admitted to Apollo Hospital Bannerghatta Road, Bangalore, the day before the surgery; the staff at Apollo were polite and caring. I was able to walk within a few hours after the surgery, and it felt almost surreal to not have any leg pain after spending months in agony. Like many people, I was apprehensive about spine surgery, but having the surgery has completely changed my life for the better. I am glad to have had Dr. Kartik as my doctor; his friendly demeanor, patience, care, and vast experience in his field gave me a lot of confidence. It’s been three weeks since the surgery, and my life is almost back to normal. I cannot thank Dr. Kartik enough for everything he has done to give me my life back.

Choosing your doctor right is always important. I was suffering from an extruded disc from last few months and the pain was on its extreme. Pain killers were really helpless. I was really confused what to do next as living with this pain was something I could never imagine of. That was the time I heard about Dr.Karthik Revanappa of Apollo Bannerghatta Road. To understand him better I have gone through the practo reviews and the experiences of each person made me decide to meet doctor without a second thought. Doctor suggested me to go for a Lumbar decompression surgery. I was surprised with the kind attitude of doctor while explaining the pre and post surgery procedures . I had undergone the surgey after few days and from the moment I got admitted to the hospital till discharge and during the recovery phase the support doctor extended was beyond expectations. The smile that he wears is the biggest support that we could ever get. Now iam recovered from all the pain that I was suffering from days together. I would be grateful if this could help someone to choose their doctor right !

I was suffering from sciatica in the last 2 months which became very intense and no pain killers eased the pain, that is when I consulted Dr. Karthik. Doctor went through my reports and suggested for a lumbar decompression surgery. Doctor was very kind enough to explain the pre and post operation procedure and it's associated risks.
I had read positive reviews and great feedback about doctor. I trusted him , so without any second thought, I underwent the surgery 12 days back. My pain is absolutely gone after the Operation. However I am been on a restricted activities for a month and will be resuming to the work afterwards. I feel, i took a best decision in choosing a right doctor !!!!
I am falling short of words to explain my profound gratitude and regards to specially Dr Karthik Revanappa and the supporting staff of Apollo, Bannerghatta road.
I wish this review could help many people like me who suffered the pain and also help them in choosing a right doctor.
Thanks all,
Shruthi.
