I had my fistula surgery done by Dr Arun , (Elixer Clinic), and the overall experience was very good. Dr Arun was professional and supportive throughout the treatment. The staff were caring and very helpful. I would also like to specially thank PRO Prashant ettan and the security chettan for their kindness and support. Since I am physically disabled and there were a few steps to reach the lift area, they helped me comfortably. One small request to the team: please consider improving wheelchair accessibility for disabled patients in the future.Posted on Karthika Babu14 May 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
