Patient Experience
I'd been to a couple of doctors for this nagging stomach pain and fatigue, and everyone said it was just stress. Dr. Mehta actually listened to the whole timeline, asked a bunch of questions others hadn't, and ordered some specific tests. Turns out it was a tricky gallbladder issue that wasn't showing up on the standard scans. He explained it in a way that finally made sense, and the surgery he recommended fixed it completely. I feel like myself again.
Had to get a small cyst removed from my back. Honestly, I was nervous about any kind of procedure. Dr. Mehta's clinic at Apollo was really efficient. The whole thing was over in what felt like twenty minutes. He talked me through each step as he was doing it, which kept me calm. The stitches were neat, healing was straightforward, and the follow-up was quick. It was just a simple thing, but it was handled really well.
The Apollo hospital on Bannerghatta Road is huge and can feel a bit overwhelming. I got a bit turned around finding the clinic, but one of the floor coordinators saw me looking lost and walked me right to the door. The nurses in Dr. Mehta's section were great—friendly without being over the top, and they got my vitals done quickly even though the waiting area was pretty full. It made the visit less stressful.
What stood out most about Dr. Mehta was how he is in the room. He doesn't rush. He sits down, looks at you, and you feel like you have his full attention. When I was worried about some test results, he didn't just dismiss my anxiety; he took time to go over the numbers and explain what they meant and what they didn't mean. He has a calm way about him that makes you feel like you're in good hands, not just on an assembly line.
