Your first visit

Most health problems start small. The first visit is about hearing the whole story, examining you properly and treating the problem before it grows.

  1. He listens first

    Your symptoms and when they started, your other illnesses, your medicines, and what is happening at home and at work. A family member is welcome in the room.

  2. A careful examination

    Temperature, pulse, blood pressure and a full examination. Tests are advised only when they will change the treatment.

  3. Treatment and advice

    What the problem is, what to take and for how long, what to watch for, and when to come back or go to a hospital.

What patients say

Stories from patients and families, in their own words.

    Most everyday illnesses need a few medicines, for a few days.

    A good family doctor prescribes less, explains more, and knows when a problem needs a specialist. The panel lists the medicine groups you may hear about.

    • Do not take leftover antibiotics for a new fever; see the doctor first.
    • Drink plenty of fluids in any fever, and rest.
    • A fever above 103°F (39.4°C) that does not come down, a fit, severe breathlessness, or a child who is drowsy or not passing urine is an emergency. Go to the nearest hospital at once.

    At Uma Clinic, Devanahalli Town, Devanahalli, Karnataka 562110. Consultations run Monday to Saturday; send a request and the clinic team will confirm the time. He also consults at other centres, so the clinic team confirms the place and time when you book.

    No. You can book directly. If another doctor has seen you, bring their notes and prescriptions.

    Chest pain, sudden weakness on one side of the body, severe breathlessness, a fit, a very high fever with confusion, bleeding that does not stop, or a child who is drowsy, not drinking or not passing urine. Go to the nearest emergency department at once. Do not wait for an appointment.

    Only when they will change the treatment. Most coughs and colds need none; a fever that lasts more than two or three days, or a long-term condition such as diabetes, does.
