Dr. Rakesh Pandey

I'd been to a couple of doctors for this nagging stomach pain and fatigue, and everyone said it was just stress. Dr. Pandey was different. He actually sat and listened to every little symptom I described, even the weird ones I thought were unrelated. He ordered a specific test the others hadn't, and it turned out to be a tricky thyroid issue masquerading as something else. He explained the whole thing with a diagram on his notepad. Finally felt like someone had connected the dots.

Had to get a small cyst removed from my back. Honestly, I was nervous about the whole thing, but Dr. Pandey made it feel like no big deal. The procedure itself was over before I knew it. He talked me through each step, and the nurse was great about checking if I was comfortable. The best part was how clear the aftercare instructions were—no confusion, just simple steps. Back to normal in a few days.

The parking at Apollo was a nightmare that morning, so I arrived a bit flustered. But the front desk lady was really patient and got me sorted quickly. The whole place just felt calm, you know? Even the person who took my vitals was friendly. By the time I saw Dr. Pandey, I’d relaxed. It’s not just about the doctor; when the whole team is good, it makes a difference.

What I remember most is how he spoke to my elderly mother. She gets confused easily and was scared. Dr. Pandey didn't just talk to me; he knelt down so he was at her eye level, held her hand, and explained her new medication in words she could actually understand. He has this quiet, reassuring way about him that just puts you at ease. You don't feel like just another file on his desk.
