"Recently, my wife was admitted to Global Hospital due to breathing issues along with allergies. The medical team took prompt and necessary actions to stabilize her condition. She was admitted for three days, and throughout the stay, all possible measures were taken to control her condition and monitor her health closely. The treatment and care provided were excellent. After shifting to the room, the nursing staff gave very good attention and care. I would like to specifically appreciate the nurses Meena, Muthulakshmi, and Sneha for their timely support, proper administration of medicines, and for making my wife feel comfortable throughout her stay. The housekeeping staff also did a great job. Nagalakshmi, Hitchbi, and Sulka visited the room regularly, maintained cleanliness, and ensured a comfortable environment. They were very kind and supportive towards the patient. Finally, the doctors thoroughly reviewed all the reports and clearly explained my wife’s condition and the precautions and measures we need to follow in the future. Overall, we are very satisfied with the care, professionalism, and support provided by the entire Global Hospital team. Thank you for the excellent service and care."

"I visited Gleneagles for sebaceous cyst removal and was treated by Dr. Selva Seetharaman and team. Dr. Selva sir is an expert and humble person. I had an overall positive experience. I was admitted twice—once for the surgery and once for suture—and both admissions and sevices were handled smoothly and professionally. Most of the consultations and reviews were done by Dr. Karthick and Sri Vidhya. Both were kind, patient, and explained the procedure and follow-up clearly. They took time to review everything properly and answered all my queries, which made me feel reassured throughout the process. Nurse Jayalakshmi and Vasanthi were also very helpful during the consultations and reviews, providing good support and care. Overall, the experience was well-managed and positive. Thank you very much."
