Patient Experience
Our 8-year-old son had been having stomach pains for weeks, and we were really scared. The pediatrician couldn't figure it out. Dr. Anchalia saw him at Apollo. She was so patient with him, letting him explain his 'tummy aches' in his own words. She didn't just talk to us; she talked to *him*. She ordered some tests, sure, but she also asked about his school and what he'd been eating. Turned out it was a mix of anxiety and a mild food intolerance. She gave us a clear plan, not just medicine. My son now calls her 'the nice doctor who listened.' That means more than any diagnosis.
Had a persistent fever and fatigue for over a month. Multiple visits elsewhere, no answers. Booked an appointment with Dr. Manjulata Anchalia at Apollo Ahmedabad. She reviewed my history, asked focused questions, ordered specific blood work. Diagnosis: a bacterial infection that was missed. Prescribed a targeted antibiotic. Fever broke in two days. Energy returned. Follow-up was straightforward. She solved the problem efficiently.
I was quite nervous about my check-up, as I've always been anxious around hospitals. Dr. Anchalia has a very calm way about her. She explained everything about my blood pressure management in a quiet, clear voice, without rushing. The waiting room was busy that day, but she didn't let that affect the time she spent with me. She made sure I understood the adjustments to my medication. It felt like she was really thinking about what would work best for me, personally. A very kind doctor.
Wow, what a relief! I'd been dragging myself around with zero energy, thinking it was just work stress. Dr. Anchalia actually took the time to dig deeper. She spotted a vitamin deficiency my previous doctor had overlooked! A simple course of supplements and I feel like a new person. She's sharp, friendly, and actually *heard* me when I said 'I'm just tired all the time.' The Apollo clinic was running a bit behind schedule, but honestly, it was worth the wait. So glad I went to see her!
