Patient’s review from Google

  • I am extremely grateful to Dr. A. K. VENKATACHALAM as he had sucessfully carried out my ligament surgery of left shoulder in the year 2005. During that period, being a professional cricketer, I was badly suffering from dislocation of my shoulder quite frequently which could not be treated in Kolkata but he broght the majic moment to me and extended my cricketing career....Recently, in May 2022 I again met Dr. Venkatachalam after 15 long years with regard to my Sr. Citizen mother's knee problem and accordingly he diagnosed her for Total Knee Replacement.. I am thankful to him for his rendition of correct guideline to my mother...One should blindly choose and rely upon Dr. Venkatachalam for any ortho related sufferings...My heartfull respect will always be there for him..

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Dr. A.V. Venkatachalam did a stem cell treatment for my left knee, and I was up and about in 2 weeks. Before my treatment, my pain was unbearable and it hindered my daily routines. Post the treatment, not only was I pain free, I also got some flexibility on my knee joint, and I was able to go about my daily routines without any issues. I strongly recommend Dr. A.K. Venkatachalam. He is sincere, high on integrity, and empathic to his patients, and has their best interest in mind.
