Patient Experience
I'd been to three different doctors for this weird fatigue and joint pain. Everyone said it was stress or just getting older. Dr. Raji Varghese at Sakra was the first one who actually listened to the timeline I'd written down. She ordered a specific blood test the others hadn't, and it turned out to be something pretty rare. She explained it to me with a diagram on her notepad, which made a confusing situation feel manageable. I'm on treatment now and finally starting to feel like myself.
Had to get a minor cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first any procedure, you know? But Dr. Varghese made it so straightforward. The whole thing at Sakra was over in what felt like twenty minutes. She talked me through each step as she was doing it, which kept my mind off things. The incision was tiny, healed up clean, and the follow-up was just a quick check-in call from her nurse. It was exactly what you hope for: simple and smooth.
The parking garage was completely full when I arrived for my appointment, which stressed me out. But from the moment I walked in, the staff at Sakra World Hospital sorted it. The front desk person was really calm about it, and the nurse who took my vitals actually joked with me about the Bangalore traffic, which helped. The whole place feels bright and quiet, not like a typical hospital. It made waiting for Dr. Varghese a lot easier.
What stuck with me most about Dr. Varghese was how she talks to you. She doesn't rush. When I was worried about some medication side effects, she sat back in her chair and said, 'Okay, let's figure this out together.' She remembers small things from previous visits, like asking if my daughter's exams were over. It feels like you're talking to a very smart, caring person who also happens to be your doctor. That kind of attention is rare.
