Dr Shashidhar's expertise help me get out of my major spine issue in lumbar fusion. Always have a calm approach and very clear about the process. I am really thankful to him for solving my spine issue and also morally supporting me throughout this journey. Highly recommended for people who is looking for spine specialist
My mother (73. Yrs) had a compression of a vertebra in 2019 and was suffering from terrible back ache. She was finding it difficult to sit upright. We went to dr. Shashidhar. He diagnosed the condition very well and did a procedure d filled up the gap with cement. She had instant releif and was able to do most of the work with a back support. Within 2 months she was absolutely fine and doing her regular chores effortlessly. We are very happy with his treatment and of course his friendly nature makes him very approachable. Would definitely recommend Dr. Shashidhar for all back related problems.
I had a spinal pain, consulted so many doctors and was never convinced as they only adviced me to diet, rest needed or exercise or send me to consult other Doctors. I had given up my job with this tension. At last Dr. Shashidhar diagnosed correctly and asked me to take up a job. He explained in full detail with technical explanations that made me very content about my condition. No medicines no surgery. Confidence to stay happy and no chance of this disease to get worse. Nothing to worry.
My sincere gratitude and thanks. Best wishes Vijay Deshpande
I would like to thank you very much from my bottom of heart to you Dr. Shashidhar Sir. Last month you've operated my beloved one at #Columbia Asia hospital# the initial discussion which we had is very grateful and the way you answering for the small small queries through whatsapp and even on call also very appreciative and helpful also for anyone. And you treat the person and informing about the situation and explaining the way also awesome. You're the best surgeon for spine. God bless you sir and once again thank you so much.
Worst experience ever with a doctor period. Went for consultation at 10.55 to his clinic. The people from his clinic has asked to consult him in silver line diagnostics center which is opposite to his clinic. Waited there for till 12.30 pm. Still no show up. Finally he showed up and surprise he is a orthopaedic only for spine he don't look patients with knee problems. The receptionist even was surprised, worst part I am not sure whether he is the doctor only, doesn't look like one.

My mother is 60 years old and had been suffering from lumbar canal stenosis for the last 6 years, but six month back her pain increased and was unbearable. This was radiating from the back to the right leg. We met many doctors in different cities. Then we came to Doctor Shashidhar who listened to us very thoroughly and asked for my mother’s medical history. He suggested us to go for surgery after explaining us the issues in detail. My mother underwent minimally invasive TLIF L4 L5, Microdecompression L3L4 surgery. The pain decreased from next day of the surgery itself. She was able to walk after 2-3 days. We are very much satisfied with his treatment. We felt that Dr Shashidhar gave us personal attention. 6 months after the surgery my mother is able to walk freely and is back to her normal routine. We would definitely recommend Dr Shashidhar for any spine related issues. Once again thank you Dr Shashidhar.
Consulted Dr. Shashidhar for my mom. She is 64yrs old and was suffering a lot with shock like pain in her left leg (radiating from hip to the side of the leg) whenever she walked or stood for long time. Dr. Shashidhar is very amiable and is indeed a specialist when it comes to spine related problems. He does a thorough diagnosis and doesn't rush to conclusions. He explained the problem in a very detailed manner and clarified each and every doubt/questions we had. He suggested for epidural injection prior to surgery which gave her relief for couple of months (we were informed that it isn't a permanent solution). Since the pain reoccured, we went for surgery -TLIF L5S1. We were given both options - Open and Minimally Invasive TLIF L5S1. We went for MI. My mom was initially scared to undergo surgery but the Doctor explained to her in layman's terms and told her it is nothing to fear about and made her feel confident, not every doctor does this. The surgery was successful and she was able to feel the difference after a couple of weeks itself. Currently which is 6 months later, my mom is able to walk and stand without the pain and is back to her normal routine. Dr. Shashidhar is very approachable and once you are his patient, he makes sure he is there for you throughout your course of surgery and treatment. Would like to thank Dr. Shashidhar for his successful treatment. His patience is commendable. Personally I have never seen a Doctor so dedicated, skilled and yet so humble. Would highly recommend him for any spine related problems.
By seeing online rating I went to this person for my leg pain he took MRI and recommended spine operation even though MRI doesn't show any issue, he wanted me to go for surgery bcz of pain symptoms. Still I told that I had pain of 1/10 with max pain rating of 10 (for comparison). After that I went to some Ayurveda doctor and by studying my life style, doctor told me that I have some lubrication issue for my sciatica nerve and gave me some Ayurveda medicine for a month, now I am 100% all right and going for 6kms jogging also now. Please do not ever go to this person, they can spoil your life just for their money greed. I don't know what god is doing for such people.:). I still wonder how people are giving those ratings.: (: (same reports I showed to 2 more doctors (one in Manipal ortho surgeon) and both said there is no issue at all and my spine is stronger than people at my age.
I had problem of L4-L5 disc prolapse, I was unable to walk for more than 3 months, I tried everything like traction, proper rest, physical therapy, but I was unable to stand properly on my legs during my work or walk short distances. Then I visited Dr. Shashidhar in his clinic in 3 rd Block, HRBR Layout, Kalyannagar. I was given his reference by my sister who is a doctor in California. From his clinic I was taken to Columbia Asia Hospital, Hebbal for surgery. Dr. Shashidhar suggested L4L5 microdiscectomy. On the same day of surgery he made me stand and walk. He operated me at Columbia Asia Hebbal. All the follow ups where done in his clinic. Today it has been more than 1 and half year, I am back to my profession which involves prolonged standing for more than 2 hours. Till yet I don’t have any problem. I had best experience with Dr. Shashidhar. Damn polite and always smiling.
We met Dr Shashidhar BK after seeing 2-3 doctor for the lower back pain. He listen the problem very carefully then he diagnosis the problem in right way and found the issue. He advised on many posture correction related issue and that i were doing all wrong exercise and posture. He suggested Physiotherapy, Meditation, Couple of Flexion movement exercise, and Hot water swimming. He is the best man for the back pain issues. God Bless him. Thanks

Hi everyone. I would love to share my experience with all of you. In the month of June 2018 I found a big bump on my back, we went to chinmaya mission hospital for consultation with general surgeon and as per MRI report that doctor had referred my case to Dr. Shashidhar B. K.and doctor had guided us very well regarding the probability of having spinal tuberculosis, we had finalised my surgery on 23/7/18. With the great help and assistance of chinmaya mission hospital staff and Dr. Shashidhar surgery was successful. The sample collected from my back was sent to two different laboratories to be very sure about my disease and as per reports it was spinal tuberculosis only. Since 25/7/18 I was on prescribed medication and now I am recover, I am living my normal life. In this whole journey of mine I didn't run anywhere for my tests to be done, everything was available in the chinmaya mission hospital only. Hospital staff and post operation care was exemplary fantastic. In comparison to other hospitals the expense was also pretty decently cheaper. Last but not least Dr. SHASHIDHAR B. K was someone who made me believe that"Doctors are God". Thankyou Chinmaya Mission hospital.
