I was admitted to Prakriya after me and my hubby met with an accident and my right humerus bone had a very bad fracture. I had almost lost hope but I have to thank Dr Akshay, Orthopedic Surgeon for being so positive and support me all through my healing journey. He was the best doctor I met giving me all hope saying everything is possible just give some time to heal.. It's been 11 months after my surgery I have never had a problem I started using my arm asusual after 2 weeks of surgery, except heavy weight. Now I am completely fine. I like to thank all the staff who helped me during the process and very much appreciate the cleanliness of the hospital.
