Meet Dr.Rakesh Godavarthi (ENT Specialist)
ENT is a medical specialty which deals with conditions involving the ear, nose and throat. ENT specialists are specialized ENT doctors who diagnose and treat problems related to ears, nose and throat (ENT). There are many ENT surgeons in Vizag, but only a few of them are qualified to work on infections or tumors in the ear, sinusitis and breathing difficulties. However, the best ENT hospital in Visakhapatnam is equipped with all the necessary facilities to treat people with various Ear, Nose & Throat problems.
Dr Rakesh Godavarthi chose ENT as his lifetime career. As an ENT Doctor, he always feels a sense of pride to be able to provide a normal living like ours to patients with Ear, Nose and Throat disorders. His sole intention is to spread awareness of treating hearing loss with ENT facilities so that the patient can live a happy and better life!
