We rely on our diagnostic skills to find the answers, but many clues come directly from patients' recollections of their symptoms and clinical history. This is when careful listening and an empathetic bedside manner play a huge role." With his astute diagnostic skills and knowledge, it is no surprise that Dr Ravikiran Barigala is considered one of the best infection specialists in Hyderabad.
