I'm really thankful to Dr. Pradeep Kumar Shenoy for how precise his diagnosis was and how clearly he explained everything to me. Honestly I was a bit nervous before going in but he made me feel so at ease with how compassionate and informative he was through the whole process. He answered all my questions, never once made me feel like he was in a hurry. Not many doctors have this mix of being really good at what they do and also being this patient and warm with patients. I walked out of every appointment actually understanding what was going on with my treatment, which honestly means a lot. Would definitely recommend him to anyone in Mangalore who's looking for a rheumatologist who actually knows his stuff and cares.Posted on Google![]()

We had a really good experience with Dr. Pradeep Kumar Shenoy. My mom had been dealing with arthritis for quite some time, and it was affecting her day-to-day life because of the pain and stiffness. After consulting Dr. Shenoy and following his treatment, she is doing so much better now. What we really appreciated was the way he took the time to understand her condition properly and explained everything to us in a simple and clear way. He was patient, approachable, and made us feel confident about the treatment. Seeing my mom move around more comfortably and get back to her normal daily activities means a lot to our family. We are truly thankful to Dr. Shenoy for his care and guidance. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a good rheumatologist in Mangalore.Posted on Google![]()

My family member recently visited Dr. Pradeep Kumar Shenoy for a check-up, and the experience was truly excellent. From the moment we walked in, we felt at ease. Dr. Shenoy examined him thoroughly and took the time to listen patiently to all his concerns, without rushing through the appointment at all. What stood out the most was how clearly he explained everything — the condition, the next steps, all of it in a way that was easy to understand. He is kind, professional, and clearly very knowledgeable in his field. My family member left the clinic feeling truly cared for and satisfied with the treatment. It's rare to find a doctor who combines this level of expertise with genuine patience and warmth. We would highly recommend Dr. Pradeep Kumar Shenoy to anyone looking for a good rheumatologist in Mangalore. Thank you, Dr. Shenoy, for your care and attention.Posted on Google![]()

Extremely Disappointing Experience I had a very disappointing and distressing experience with this doctor while seeking treatment for my mother. The medication prescribed to my mother resulted in serious side effects, and her hair became completely matted. Eventually, we had no option but to cut off all of her hair, and she is now having to wear a wig. This has been extremely traumatic for her and our family. What concerns me even more is that the prescription did not clearly mention how many tablets had to be taken or the exact frequency/dosage. We followed the prescription as we understood it. After my mother developed these problems, when we went back for a consultation and raised our concerns, instead of taking responsibility or clearly explaining the medication instructions, the doctor told us that it was not his responsibility to specify this and that the pharmacist was supposed to explain it. As a patient’s family, we expect a prescription to have clear instructions regarding dosage and frequency, and we expect our concerns about serious side effects to be listened to with empathy and responsibility. This has been a very painful experience for my mother, and I would strongly advise other patients to carefully clarify the dosage, frequency, and possible side effects of every medication before taking it.
