Patient Experience
Had a persistent stomach issue for weeks. Booked with Dr. Sahu at Apollo. Appointment was on time, he listened, ordered the right tests, and had a clear treatment plan by the follow-up. Problem solved. Efficient and effective.
Look, I don't like going to the doctor. But I had to. Dr. Sahu was straight with me. No sugar-coating, no unnecessary fluff. Told me what was wrong, what I needed to do, and that was that. Got my prescription and was out. Good experience.
My wife finally made me go after I'd been ignoring a cough for a month. The waiting area was busy, I'll admit. But once I got in, Dr. Sahu took his time. He asked about my work, my sleep, not just the cough. He connected some dots I wouldn't have, thinking it was just allergies. Turns out it was a mild infection that needed specific meds. He called me two days later to check in, which I really didn't expect. Felt like he actually cared about fixing the whole problem, not just getting me out the door.
My mother was admitted with a bad stomach infection. We were all worried, especially my father. Dr. Chhotray took the time to explain everything to us in our own language, step by step. He didn't just talk to me; he made sure my dad understood, which meant a lot. The hospital was busy, and we had to wait a bit to see him sometimes, but he always answered our questions. Mom is home and doing much better now.
I brought my son in after he spiked a high fever that wouldn't break. Honestly, I was pretty scared. Dr. Chhotray was direct and clear. He told me exactly what he thought it was, what tests he needed, and what the plan was. No sugar-coating, but he was calm. That helped me calm down. We got it sorted in a couple of days. Just what we needed.
My husband had a persistent cough for weeks. I was the one who finally convinced him to see a doctor. Dr. Chhotray was so gentle in his manner. He listened patiently to all my husband's worries and explained things in a very soft, reassuring way. He made my stubborn husband feel at ease. The treatment was simple, but the care made the real difference. We're both very grateful.
After days of terrible migraines, I saw Dr. Chhotray. I'd been to another doctor before with no luck. He actually listened to my whole history, asked good questions, and suggested a different approach. When the new medication started working, I was so relieved! I finally got my energy back. The parking lot was packed that day, but seeing him was worth the hassle.
I'd been to three other doctors for months with this nagging stomach pain and fatigue. Everyone said it was stress. Dr. Prasant Sahoo actually sat and listened, asked questions no one else had. He ordered a specific test I'd never heard of. Turns out it was a tricky parasite, not stress at all. He explained the whole thing with a diagram on his notepad. Finally, an answer.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Sahoo made it so straightforward. The whole thing took maybe twenty minutes in his procedure room at Apollo. He talked me through each step as he did it, which really kept me calm. It healed up perfectly, no fuss. Sometimes simple things done right are what you need.
The Apollo facility is nice, but what stood out was the team. The front desk lady remembered my name at my follow-up, which was a nice touch. The nurse who took my vitals was really kind when I mentioned I was anxious about the blood draw. Even the person who helped direct us when the main parking was full. It felt like everyone was on the same page, and that starts with the doctor's office.
What I'll remember most about Dr. Sahoo is how he talks to you. He doesn't rush. He came in, sat down, and looked at me, not just my file. When he explained my treatment plan, he checked if I understood and asked if I had any doubts. It felt like a conversation, not a lecture. That kind of respect makes a huge difference when you're not feeling well.
I'd been to a few doctors about this constant fatigue and weird joint pain. Everyone said it was stress or just getting older. Dr. Prusty was the first one who actually listened to my whole history, even the parts I thought were unrelated. He ordered some specific tests others hadn't, and it turned out to be something quite rare. He explained it to me in plain Odia, drew a little diagram on his notepad. It was scary, but finally having a name for it and a plan made all the difference.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Prusty made it seem so straightforward. The whole thing was over in what felt like minutes. He talked me through each step as he was doing it, which kept my mind off things. The incision was tiny, and the recovery was exactly as he said it would be—no surprises. Sometimes simple things done well are what you need most.
The parking at Apollo was a nightmare that day, completely full. I was flustered by the time I got to the clinic. But the lady at Dr. Prusty's front desk was so calm and got me checked in quickly. The whole place just felt clean and orderly, which helped me settle down. Even the nurse who took my vitals had a nice way about her. It felt like a team effort, not just one person.
What I remember most is how Dr. Prusty sat down. He didn't stand by the door ready to rush out. When I told him I was worried about starting a new medication, he put his pen down and asked why. We just talked for a few minutes about my concerns—no hurry. He has this quiet, patient way of listening that makes you feel like you're the only person he has to see that day.
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.
I was so nervous going in for my first check-up in years. Dr. Sahu could tell right away and just talked to me like a normal person, not a medical chart. He explained everything about my blood pressure in a way that actually made sense. I left feeling way less stressed than when I arrived.
