About Me
"On December 28, 2023, my son was involved in a serious accident and was rushed to Apollo Adlux Hospital. He sustained a critical injury to his right leg, and his left leg had multiple fractures. Under the care of Dr. Prince Shanavas, the orthopedic surgeon, and his team, my son underwent plastic surgery and received excellent treatment. After weeks of dedicated care, he was discharged on January 21st and is now steadily recovering from that critical stage. We are deeply grateful to Dr. Prince Shanavas and the entire team for their outstanding service."
“In December 2017, I was in a severe accident that caused knee joint ligament fractures. After an initial surgery in Mangalore, I remained in a wheelchair for two years, struggling with limited mobility. Then I met Dr. Prince Shanavas, who suggested another surgery. Despite the complexity of the procedure, it was a success. Now, almost a year later, I have fully regained my independence and can do everything without assistance. Dr Prince Shanavas’ expertise and care have truly transformed my life, allowing me to walk and live normally again.”
“In November 2022, I was in a severe road traffic accident, leaving me unconscious with no pulse or blood pressure. I was intubated due to multiple fractures, a head injury, and a pelvic disaster, relying on ventilator support for two weeks. Additionally, I had adenocarcinoma and faced the risks of surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation. Following that, I battled tuberculosis, requiring six months of chemotherapy. Today, I’m grateful to say that I can engage in any activity and have regained my strength. Dr. Prince Shanavas was instrumental in my recovery, providing the support and encouragement I needed. Thank you, Dr. Prince Shanavas”
