Patient Experience
I'd been feeling off for months, tired and achy, and a couple of other doctors just shrugged. Dr. Subudhi was different. He actually sat and listened to my whole history, asked questions no one else had. He pieced together some odd symptoms I thought were unrelated and ordered a specific test. Turned out it was a thyroid issue that wasn't showing up on standard checks. He explained it all in a way that finally made sense. I'm on treatment now and starting to feel like myself again.
Had to get a small cyst removed from my back. Honestly, I was pretty nervous about it, but Dr. Subudhi made it simple. The whole thing at Apollo was very straightforward. He talked me through each step before he did it, the local anesthetic worked perfectly, and it was over in what felt like ten minutes. The follow-up instructions were clear, and the healing has been a breeze. It was exactly what you hope a routine thing will be.
The place was busy when I went for my dad's check-up, parking was a bit of a hunt. But once we got inside, the front desk people were really patient with us. The nurse who took his vitals was gentle and cracked a joke that put him at ease. The whole wing felt calm and clean, which matters when you're stressed. Dr. Subudhi's part was great, but honestly, the team around him made a tough day much easier to handle.
What I'll remember most is how Dr. Subudhi talked to my mother. She's elderly and gets confused. He didn't just talk to me about her care; he knelt down so he was at her eye level, spoke slowly, and checked if she understood. He called her 'Ma'am' and had this quiet, respectful way about him. You could see her anxiety just melt away. That kind of respect is everything.
My mom was admitted for a bad stomach infection and we were all really scared. Dr. Deepa was the one who actually sat us down in the waiting area and explained everything in simple terms—what was happening, what the medicine would do, what to watch for at home. She didn't just talk to the chart. She gave us her direct number for follow-up, which we used once, and she called back herself. It made a stressful time so much easier for our whole family.
Had my gallbladder out with Dr. Deepa. The surgery part is a blur, but the recovery was rough. She was really clear about the pain plan beforehand, which helped. The first two days were hard, I won't lie, but the nurses followed her instructions to the letter. She checked on me every morning, asked specific questions about the pain level and movement, and adjusted things as needed. Felt like she was actually listening and didn't just expect me to tough it out.
Needed a general check-up and got Dr. Deepa. Quick, efficient, no nonsense. Explained my blood work results without any medical jargon. Told me what to fix, what was fine. Parking at Apollo was a nightmare that day, but the appointment itself was straightforward and helpful.
I'd been putting off seeing anyone about this lingering cough and fatigue for weeks. Finally went to Apollo and saw Dr. Deepa C K. I was nervous it was something serious. She had a calm way about her—asked a lot of questions, not just about the cough but about my sleep and work stress. She actually examined me properly, listened to my lungs for what felt like a full minute. Turned out to be a stubborn post-viral thing, but she laid out a clear plan: this medicine, rest for this long, come back if this specific thing happens. It was the thoroughness that got me. I left feeling like I'd been heard, not just processed.
At my age, hospital visits can be quite daunting. I was feeling rather unwell for several days before my son insisted I see someone. Dr. Padhy was recommended. I must say, from the moment I entered his room, he put me at ease. He listened to my old complaints without any rush, explained things in a way I could understand, and never made me feel like a burden. The treatment he suggested was simple and effective. I left feeling cared for, not just treated.
Had a persistent stomach issue. Went to Apollo, saw Dr. Debabrata Padhy. He asked clear questions, ordered the right tests, diagnosed the problem quickly. Explained the treatment plan plainly. Followed up as promised. Problem resolved. Efficient and competent doctor.
I was so nervous before my appointment, my hands were shaking. Dr. Padhy has such a calm way about him. He spoke softly, asked permission before any examination, and really listened when I described my worries. He didn't dismiss anything, even the small stuff I thought was silly to mention. He took the time. It made all the difference. I'm feeling much better now, both in body and mind.
Honestly, I was at my wit's end! This nagging cough just wouldn't quit after weeks. I walked into Apollo, parking was a nightmare, but seeing Dr. Padhy was worth the hassle. He figured it out in one visit—turns out it was something totally different than I thought. Gave me a new medicine and bam, started improving in two days. What a relief! He's got my trust, for sure.
I'd been to three other doctors for this nagging pain and fatigue. Everyone said it was stress. Dr. Jena was the first one who actually sat and listened to my whole history. He ordered a specific test the others hadn't, and it turned out to be something pretty rare. He explained it to me in simple terms, drew a little diagram on his notepad. It wasn't good news, but having a real answer and a clear plan finally made me feel like I wasn't going crazy.
Had to get a cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Jena made it seem like the most normal thing in the world. The whole thing took maybe twenty minutes in his procedure room. He talked me through each step, asked about my kids to distract me. Sore for a day or two, but that was it. Sometimes you just need something straightforward handled well, and that's exactly what happened.
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. Jena's front desk was so calm, she got me sorted quickly. The whole place just felt efficient and clean, not chaotic. Even the person who took my blood samples was really gentle. It made a stressful day much easier to handle.
What I remember most is how he talked to my elderly mother. She gets confused easily and was scared. Dr. Jena didn't just talk to me about her treatment. He knelt down so he was at her eye level, held her hand, and explained everything directly to her, slowly. He called her 'Aunty'. You could see her just relax. That kind of respect means more than any medicine sometimes.
My visit to Dr. Chanduka was arranged by my son. I must admit, I was a little anxious about going to such a large hospital, but from the moment I entered his room, I felt at ease. He has a very calm manner. He listened patiently to all my old complaints, never made me feel rushed, and explained my new medication in a way I could understand. The hospital itself is very modern, though I did get a bit turned around finding the pharmacy afterwards.
Had a persistent stomach issue. Went to Apollo, saw Dr. Amit Kumar Chanduka. He asked clear questions, ordered the right tests, and diagnosed the problem quickly. Treatment worked. No nonsense, efficient. Would recommend.
I was quite worried about some symptoms I'd been having. Dr. Chanduka was so kind. He didn't just look at the reports; he looked at me, asked how I was coping. His advice was gentle but clear, and he took the time to answer all my quiet questions. I left feeling heard and much lighter in my heart.
Finally! After months of feeling run-down and getting nowhere, my friend told me to see Dr. Chanduka. What a difference! He actually figured it out – it was a simple vitamin deficiency. He was so upbeat and confident explaining it all. I started the supplements he suggested and wow, my energy is back. So glad I went!
