Patient Experience
For months, I was just tired. My local doctor said it was stress, but it kept getting worse. Dr. Modi at Apollo listened differently. He asked these specific questions about things I'd never thought to mention, like my skin feeling a bit thicker. He ordered a few more tests and it turned out to be something pretty rare with my thyroid. He explained it all with a diagram on his notepad, and the treatment plan actually worked. I feel like myself again.
I needed to get my gallbladder out. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Modi made it sound straightforward. The surgery itself was fine, and the recovery was exactly how he said it would be. No surprises, no drama. I was in and out of the hospital in a couple of days, and the stitches healed cleanly. It's just a relief to have it done and not have to think about it anymore.
The parking at Apollo was a nightmare that day, completely full. I was flustered by the time I got to Dr. Modi's floor. But the lady at the reception desk was so calm, she got me checked in quickly and the nurse who took my vitals had a really nice way of chatting that settled me down. The whole place just felt efficient, and clean without being cold. It made the visit less stressful.
What I remember most is how Dr. Modi talked to my mother. She's elderly and gets confused. He didn't just talk to me about her arthritis. He sat down, looked right at her, and spoke slowly and clearly, asking her where the pain was. He even showed her on his own knee what he meant by 'the joint'. She trusted him immediately because he treated her with such simple respect. That meant everything to our family.
