My 8-year-old son had a high fever that just wouldn't break, and I was terrified. We saw Dr. Sahoo at Apollo. He was so calm with my boy, explained everything to him in simple terms before talking to me, and actually got him to smile. The waiting area was packed, but once we were in his room, he gave us his full attention. He didn't just prescribe medicine; he told me exactly what to watch for and when to come back. My son is fine now, but I still remember how that man's quiet confidence made us both feel safe.
Had my gallbladder out last month. The surgery itself is one thing, but nobody tells you how rough the first few days after are. Dr. Sahoo checked on me every morning, even on the weekend. He was straight about the pain—said it would be there, but we'd manage it step by step. His instructions for moving, eating, and the meds schedule were crystal clear. I'm back home now and recovering better than I expected. He knows his stuff when it comes to getting you through the worst of it.
Saw Dr. Sahoo for a persistent stomach issue. He listened, asked good questions, ordered the right tests. Fixed me up. What more do you want? Parking at Apollo is always a nightmare, by the way.
I'd been feeling run-down for months. My local doctor kept saying it was stress. Finally went to Apollo and got an appointment with Dr. Prafulla Kumar Sahoo. First thing I noticed was how still the room got when he listened. He didn't interrupt. After I finished, he leaned back and said, 'Okay, let's start from the beginning.' He went through my history like a detective, ordered specific blood work the other guy missed. Turns out, it was a vitamin deficiency and a minor thyroid thing. Got me on a supplement and a tiny dose of medication. I'm not 100% yet, but I have my energy back. It wasn't magic; it was just a doctor who took the time to actually figure it out.
