Dr. Dukhabandu Panigrahy

I'd been to a couple of doctors about this nagging fatigue and weird joint pain. Everyone said it was stress or maybe just getting older. Dr. Panigrahy was the first one who actually seemed curious about it. He asked a ton of questions I hadn't been asked before, ordered some specific blood work nobody else had, and figured out it was a rare autoimmune thing. It wasn't a quick fix, but having a name for it and a real plan made all the difference. He didn't just shrug it off.

Had to get a mole checked and removed. Honestly, I was more stressed about the paperwork and finding the clinic than the procedure itself. Dr. Panigrahy made it so simple. He explained exactly what he was going to do, it was over in maybe ten minutes, and the follow-up instructions were clear. The whole thing felt very normal and straightforward, which is exactly what you want for something routine.

The place was busy and I had to wait a bit, which I expected. What stood out was the nurse at the front. I was clearly a bit lost and flustered, and she walked me right to the right room, cracked a little joke to settle my nerves, and made sure I had water. It's that kind of small thing that makes a visit less intimidating. Dr. Panigrahy was great, but the whole team there just seemed to get it.

Look, I'm not great with doctors. I get nervous and clam up. Dr. Panigrahy has this really calm way about him. He sat down, didn't rush me, and actually listened to my rambling concerns without looking at the clock. He explained my high blood pressure in plain language, no scary jargon, and we talked about options like we were figuring it out together. Felt like talking to a really knowledgeable, patient friend.
