Patient Experience
I'd been to three doctors about this constant fatigue and weird joint pain. Everyone said it was stress or getting older. Dr. Parwati Sharma actually listened, really looked at my whole history, and ordered some specific tests others hadn't. Turns out it was something quite rare. She explained it all to me without making me feel stupid, and we finally have a treatment plan that's working. She didn't give up.
Had to get a minor cyst removed. Honestly, I was more nervous about the hospital experience than the procedure itself. But with Dr. Sharma, it was just... straightforward. She told me exactly what would happen, how long it would take, and what the scar might look like. The whole thing was over in what felt like twenty minutes. It healed up perfectly, no fuss. Sometimes simple is good.
The Apollo Sage waiting area was packed and I had to circle for parking, which put me in a bad mood. But the front desk lady was really kind about it. The nurse who took my vitals cracked a joke that made me relax. It felt like the whole team, Dr. Sharma included, was actually working together. The place just had a calm, efficient vibe once you got past the front door chaos.
My teenage son had to see her, and he was being a typical grumpy, closed-off kid about it. Dr. Sharma had this way of talking directly to him, not just to me. She asked him about his football practice while she was examining him. She got more out of him in five minutes than I had in a week. He left saying, 'She's alright.' That's high praise from him.
