I'd been to three other doctors for this nagging stomach pain and fatigue. Everyone said it was stress. Dr. Vijay Kumar actually listened to the whole history, asked a lot of questions I hadn't been asked before, 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. I had the surgery here at Apollo Bannerghatta last month and I'm finally feeling like myself again.

Needed to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous about any kind of procedure. Dr. Vijay Kumar walked me through the whole thing in the clinic, didn't rush me, and his calmness really helped. The day of, everything went exactly as he said it would. I was in and out of the hospital in a few hours. The scar is healing really cleanly, too. It was just a simple thing, but it's a relief to have it done properly.

The parking at Apollo Bannerghatta was a nightmare that day, completely full. I was flustered by the time I got to the clinic. But the front desk lady saw I was stressed, got me checked in quickly, and even found me a quieter corner to wait. The whole place just feels efficient and clean. It made dealing with the reason for my visit a lot less stressful. Dr. Vijay Kumar's team really has things running smoothly.

Doctor: Dr. Vijay Kumar H J Hospital: Apollo Hospitals Bannerghatta Road

What I remember most is how he talked to my elderly mother. She was confused and scared about her new medication. He didn't just talk to me; he sat down, looked right at her, and explained everything using simple words and a lot of patience. He didn't make her feel rushed or silly for asking the same thing twice. That kind of respect means everything. You can tell he genuinely cares about the person, not just the chart.
