Not sure where to start? Either door is fine — sugar, blood pressure and heart are reviewed together at every visit.
Department 01
For anyone living with diabetes, newly told their sugar is “borderline”, or managing insulin.
Department 02
For blood pressure, chest discomfort, breathlessness, palpitations, or follow-up after a heart event.
General adult medicine — fever, infections, acidity, weakness, routine health check-ups and repeat prescriptions for long-term conditions.
Physician consultationDepartment
Steady, long-term care for blood sugar — and for the feet, kidneys, nerves and heart it quietly affects.
About this department
Most people live with diabetes for many years. Good control comes from understanding your own numbers, a medicine plan that fits your day, and regular checks on the feet, kidneys, eyes and heart. That is the work of this department — patient education first, then a plan you can actually follow at home.
Conditions we see
Special interests
Services
Diagnosis, HbA1c-based review and a medicine plan built around your meals and routine.
Injection technique, storage, dose adjustment and how to recognise and handle low sugar.
Weight, food and activity changes with follow-up tests to see how your numbers respond.
Sensation and circulation checks, with practical foot-care guidance for every day.
Regular urine-protein and kidney-function monitoring alongside blood pressure control.

Understanding the conditions
Department
Blood pressure, chest discomfort, breathlessness and rhythm — assessed carefully, explained plainly.
Your heart physician
Cardiologist · Physician
MD · DNB · FIECH · FCCS
A heart consultation begins with a careful history and examination. ECG, echo or further tests are advised when they will change the plan — and referral is arranged when specialised procedures are needed.
Confirming the diagnosis, finding the cause where possible, and a long-term plan.
History, ECG and risk assessment, with onward tests when needed.
Medicines, salt and fluid guidance, and regular review of breathlessness and swelling.
ECG-based evaluation, with longer monitoring advised where useful.
Targets set by your overall heart risk, not one number alone.
Heart tracing and ultrasound when your consultation calls for them.
People with diabetes can have heart trouble without typical chest pain. Unexplained breathlessness or tiredness on effort is worth mentioning at your visit.
Understanding the conditions
Diabetes and heart disease often arrive together — so it helps when the same doctor is watching both.
Raised sugar, blood pressure and cholesterol all strain the same blood vessels. Over the years that strain shows up in the heart, kidneys, eyes and feet. People with diabetes can also have heart problems without the usual chest pain, which is why routine heart checks matter in this group.
At Sanjeevani, your sugar review and your heart review happen in the same room, with one set of reports and one plan — fewer gaps, fewer repeated explanations.
The three-month average, read alongside your home readings.
Clinic and home readings compared over time.
Checked as advised, with targets set by your overall risk.
When symptoms or risk suggest a closer look.
Commonly used screening ranges — a starting point for a conversation, not a diagnosis on their own.
mg/dL · after 8 hours without food
mg/dL · after a 75 g glucose drink
% · average sugar over ~3 months
mmHg · seated, after rest
One reading is never the whole story. Tests are usually repeated before a diagnosis, and your own targets may be different once you are on treatment. *On repeated checks.
Physician · Diabetologist · Cardiologist
Dr. Dattesh K. Devda holds MD and DNB qualifications with fellowships FIECH and FCCS, and consults at Sanjeevani Hospital, Jhalod, as a physician, diabetologist and cardiologist.
His OPD is built around two simple ideas: long-term conditions are easier to live with when patients understand them, and sugar and heart should be looked at together rather than in separate rooms. Families from Jhalod and the surrounding villages visit for diabetes follow-up, blood pressure, heart symptoms and general medical care.
You leave knowing what your numbers mean and why each medicine is on the list.
Sugar, pressure, cholesterol and heart reviewed together, alongside your food, work and routine.
Each visit ends with a clear next step — which tests, when to return, what to watch for.
The hospital
A diabetes and cardiac centre on Banswara Road, near the Taluka Panchayat in Jhalod — with morning and evening OPD so working families can visit without losing a full day.
A little preparation makes the consultation far more useful — especially for long-term conditions.
Call 95101 87784 or 99097 52219, or book online. Morning or evening OPD.
Old prescriptions, reports, your medicines and any home sugar or BP readings.

A written plan, what to watch for at home, and a date for your next review.

Booking ahead is recommended — it helps keep waiting time short. Call either number or use the online booking link. If you plan to come without booking, please call first to check the day’s OPD.
Morning OPD runs from 9:30 AM to 2:30 PM and evening OPD from 4:30 PM to 8:00 PM. For Sundays and public holidays, please call to confirm before you travel.
Only if you have been asked to do a fasting test. If you are on diabetes medicines or insulin, don’t skip doses or meals without advice — call the clinic the day before and the team will guide you.
Some people with type 2 diabetes bring their sugar back into the normal range — usually with significant weight loss and lasting lifestyle change — and may need fewer medicines for a time. This varies a great deal from person to person and is not possible for everyone. The aim of care is safe, steady control and protecting the heart, kidneys, eyes and feet.
Not always. In type 1 diabetes insulin is needed lifelong. In type 2 diabetes, insulin is sometimes used for a period — for example during illness, pregnancy or very high sugar — and sometimes long term. Your plan is reviewed regularly and explained at each step.
Diabetes raises the risk of heart disease, and symptoms can be less obvious. Blood pressure and cholesterol are reviewed routinely, and an ECG or echo is advised when your history, symptoms or risk suggest it.
When your consultation calls for an ECG or 2D echo, Dr. Devda will advise it during the visit. Please call ahead if you would like to check same-day availability.
Yes. As a consultant physician, Dr. Devda sees adults with general medical concerns — fever, infections, acidity, weakness and routine check-ups — in the same OPD.
All previous prescriptions and reports, the medicines you take (or their strips), and any sugar or BP readings from home. A family member who helps with your medicines is welcome to come along.
