Patient Experience
I'd been to three other doctors for this weird fatigue and joint pain. Everyone said it was stress. Dr. Mani Deepthi actually sat and listened, asked questions about things no one else did, like a rash I had months ago. She ordered a specific blood test the others hadn't. Turns out it was something pretty rare. She explained it all with a diagram on her notepad, didn't rush me. Finally felt like someone was actually solving the puzzle.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Dasari made it feel like no big deal. The whole thing at Apollo Seshadripuram was over in maybe twenty minutes. She talked me through each step as she did it, which really helped. Sore for a day or two, but it healed clean. Just a straightforward, smooth experience from start to finish.
The parking at the hospital was completely full that day, which put me in a bad mood before my appointment. But the front desk staff helped sort it, and the nurse who took my vitals was really kind. The waiting area was calm, not chaotic. By the time I saw Dr. Mani Deepthi, I was a lot less frazzled. It's funny how the whole environment makes a difference.
What stuck with me was how Dr. Dasari talks to you. I'm an older patient, and sometimes doctors just speak to my son. She looked right at me, asked what *I* thought was going on. Her tone was direct but gentle, no sugar-coating, but also no scare tactics. She has a way of making you feel like you're in capable hands without her having to say it.
