Patient Experience
My dad was admitted for a sudden fever and confusion. Dr. Changanidi was the one who actually sat us down in the family room and drew diagrams on a notepad to explain what was happening with his kidneys. He called my sister himself with updates when she couldn't be there. It was scary, but he made us feel like a team. The nurses were great too.
I've been seeing Dr. Changanidi for my blood pressure for about eight years now, since he was at his old clinic. He remembers my history without always checking the file—asks about my son's engineering course by name. That consistency means something. When my meds needed adjusting last year, he explained the why behind each change. You don't get that everywhere.
Had a weird pain in my side that wouldn't go away. Went to Gleneagles, got Dr. Changanidi. Straight shooter. Said it was likely muscular but ordered a scan to rule other stuff out. He was right. Parking was a nightmare that day, but the doc himself? No nonsense, clear advice. Fixed me up.
It started as just feeling run-down for weeks. My wife finally pushed me to go. First appointment, Dr. Changanidi spent the whole time just listening, then said 'Let's not guess, let's check.' He mapped out a plan: basic blood work first, then more specific tests if needed. The waiting area was packed and I was nervous, but he never rushed. Turned out to be a simple vitamin deficiency. The way he walked me through each result, page by page, made a huge difference. I left with a prescription and actually understanding what was wrong.
