KochiDr Nijit, a personal Dr of mine, when I was practicing hard for senior state badminton championship 2019, I had an injury of my ankle, which was attended to by Dr and I recovered well before the event and won the event at a tender age of 14
Pavithra Naveen
KochiDr Nijith conducts detailed clinical and blood tests before prescribing the treatment. This helps in correctly identifying your condition. Once medication starts, as your condition improves, he makes sure your medicines are tapered and finally you will be able to manage with necessary excercise. He also clearly advice you on the type of excercise which is suitable to your condition.

KochiMeeting Dr Nijith was one of the best things to happen to me. I had a fracture on my ankle and foot and he came to the hospital at midnight to make sure I was admitted properly and start the treatment. From that point onwards, I knew he was no ordinary Doctor. My surgery was scheduled a few days later and throughout the process he was checking on me each day, motivating me and mentally preparing me for it. The result of the surgery was magnificent. The alignment was perfect. All my relatives and friends said so after they saw the post surgery X-ray. His skill is unquestionably amazing but what makes him special is his compassion, love and care which goes beyond medical treatment. Everytime he sees me, he explains everything to me and more importantly looks into every aspect of my health and well being. I don't see him as a Doctor alone now, I see him as a son. That's how special he is to me.
Dr Indu
KochiAn efficient and understanding doctor, who is both supportive and reliable. Can openly discuss problems and quires, explains the conditions and situations in a simple way. Very supportive throughout the treatment especially during the surgery.
