I recently had to admit my father to Continental Hospitals in Hyderabad because he got very sick with swine flu. We were very scared, but the medical team acted quickly and took great care of him.My father, who is 72 years old and has diabetes, hypertension, and anemia, was in the ICU on a ventilator for twelve days. Dr. Nishant Sinha, the pulmonologist, planned the entire medical care and took utmost care in detailed assessment of my father's condition. He was exceptional in managing my father's complex situation. Special thanks also go to the ICU care team, especially Dr. Nityanand Rao Patil, for their dedicated care and support. The doctors and nurses worked very hard to manage his conditions and treat the swine flu.

Dr. Nishanth Sinha is a godsend and life savior. He saved my father. Great experience as a first timer. I barely waited to be helped when I checked in.
