I am a banker with the nature of my job being mainly a desk job.
I was afflicted with a severe low backache (L4, L5) which had rendered me completely immobile.
It was during these torrid times that I consulted Dr. Abhishek Bangera upon insistence of one of my close acquaintances.
I must admit that 50% of the ailment was cured in the first meeting itself thanks to the personalized and confidence building approach adopted by Dr. Abhishek, unlike other commercialized approach adopted in today’s world by most of the professionals in this field.
Added to this were a few selective physio exercises advised to be followed regularly which have put me back on my feet with immobility being a thing of the past.
A “BIG THANK YOU” Dr. Abhishek
3 years and 1 month. The former is the period of time I had been suffering from backache before seeing Abhishek and the latter is the time he took to cure it. Need I say more?..well, perhaps.
I was suffering from slipped disk since the last year of my college and had been shuttling from one physiotherapist to another for almost 3 years. It did not work out since most of them could not diagnose the problem and few who did, could not prescribe me the proper treatment.
When I went to Abhishek, our pre-treatment diagnosis session went on for almost an hour. During this, not only did he ascertain my problem but also understood the peculiarities of it.
Incidentally, I was a special case of slipped disk and required a radically different, and from what I know, actually the opposite treatment of what is usually prescribed for patients with back pain problems. The moral of the story is, Dr. Abhishek is Superman!...only that he doesn't like to, as far as I know, wear his underwear over his pants.
I have been having severe back pains for more than a year now. After several tests and an MRI, the doctors told me that I have a herniated disc between my L5 & S1 vertebrae. This meant that I was now not able to bend down, lift weights and a load of other stuff. I had 2 choices - opt for surgery and get rid of the herniated disc or get in to physiotherapy to ensure I am pain free.
I opted for sports physiotherapy under the advice & guidance of Dr. Abhishek Bangera. After an intense 3 months under his guidance, I was almost pain free and was able to pursue my interest in cycling and also do regular work. Post this recovery, I consulted with Dr. Bangera to start me on physio fitness therapy so that I can get back in shape. Dr. Bangera's approach of understanding the state of the patients' state before he & his team start treatment is great. His method of using the natural range of motions and incorporating this to help cure the patient of his/her ailment is what sets him apart.
Dr. Bangera has not only helped me overcome my back/spinal issues but also equipped me to deal with pain in the future - THIS has helped me live a better and wholesome life without any restrictions.
In 2017, I had to quit SCMM in the midst, due to severe pain in the back and spasm caused. Later it was diagnosed as a Slip disc - L3 and L4.
After being on complete bed rest for 2 weeks I started mild Physio therapy . It gave me relief but could not return to active running; making me more depressed. Also ortho surgeon advised me to not do active running for atleast 6 months.
I was very frustrated. Then my friend suggested me to visit Dr Abhishek Bangera.
I visited him immediately. He was very receptive about my issues. Explained me about the pain and slip disc in very practical manner and started with corrective exercises.
I was asked for a follow up visit every week ; where my progress was noted. Also I was advised to call immediately or visit if pain increased.
Dr Abhishek and his team were very helpful whenever I called and patiently heard the issues and suggested correction.
Best part about them is that they don’t diagnose solely on basic reports, but practically examine the patient and assess the issue by asking to do various movements.
Slowly I was allowed into slow running with advise to stop, if the pain increased while running and come for follow up.
I started running slowly post 1.5 month of injury and was back in form in a span of 4 months.
Only post they were satisfied that I am all right, was I discharged. He also helped me with exercises so that the pain episodes reduced.
Had it not been for the support of Dr Abhishek; I would have not been confident of running or any physical activity fearing that pain would come again.
Truly as he is considered in the running Circle; Saviour of all runners 😄😄😄
I am always so happy and relieved when I see him volunteering in a running event I participate ; considering that I am in safe hands.
He needs no recommendation for sure ... his actions speaks louder than anyone’s words.
Thanks a lot Dr Abhishek and team 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
It gives me an immense pleasure to say that Dr.Bangera has a good vision of the injuries that occur to us while running, and the way he has treated me for my sciatica problem was one of the examples.
I went to many Doctors but I was reeling in pain for 2 months. Dr.Bangera treated me in just 7 days.
I am very thankful to him as I am happy running now.
Thanks a lot.
