On behalf of my whole family,I express my wholehearted appreciation for the care and professional attention the doctors & staff of Aster hospithospital Mankhool has provided me when I stepped in the emergency on 27/9/17 with severe breathlessness and anxiety with palpitations. I was alone,depressed,crying as I could not breath, staff quickly attended to my needs in their most efficient manner possible .they made me feel at home.stayed with me just like my own family members. later I was taken to ICU as my condition has worsened.the whole team of doctors,Dr Alai,Dr Jyoti, Dr Sandeep &Dr Arun were there to find out the root cause of my problems, immediately one after another test were done.ICU staff whole night looked after me & assured me that I will back home smiling. "The professionalism and warm caring atmosphere in The ICU gave me another life." I want tot thank Aster hospital from bottom of my heart for their efficient service and professional care they have shown during my emergency treatment. special thanks to "Mother Teresa" Sister Dinu for comforting me whole night. by Ritika Agrawal
