Patient Experience
I'd been to a few doctors about this nagging fatigue and stomach pain, and everyone said it was just stress. Dr. Vijay Bhaskar actually sat me down, listened to my whole history again, and ordered a specific test the others hadn't. Turns out it was a tricky parasite. He explained it all on a notepad, drawing the lifecycle. Felt like he was solving a puzzle, and I was finally the answer.
Had to get a cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Vijay made it feel like no big deal. The whole thing was over in what felt like minutes. He talked me through each step as it happened, and the recovery was exactly as he said it would be. Sometimes simple is good.
The parking at Apollo Bannerghatta was a bit of a mess that day, I won't lie. But once inside, it made a difference. The front desk lady saw I was flustered and helped me find my way. The nurse who took my vitals was really kind and cracked a joke about the weather. It's not just about the doctor; the whole place felt calm and professional.
What I remember most is how he talked to my elderly mother. She was scared and hard of hearing. Dr. Vijay didn't raise his voice; he just pulled his chair closer, looked right at her, and spoke slowly and clearly. He treated her with such genuine respect, not like a task on a list. That meant the world to us.
