Patient Experience
I'd been to three doctors for this weird fatigue and joint pain. Everyone said it was stress. Dr. Aditya Shah actually listened, asked a ton of questions I hadn't been asked before, and ordered some specific tests. Turns out it was something pretty rare. He explained it all with a diagram on his notepad—didn't rush me at all. Finally having a name for it and a plan was a huge relief.
Had to get a minor cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Shah made it simple. The whole thing was over in what felt like ten minutes. He talked me through each step as he was doing it, which kept my mind off things. The recovery was exactly as he said it would be—no surprises. It was just a straightforward, easy experience.
The Apollo waiting area was busy, I had to wait a bit past my appointment time, but the front desk staff were really nice about it. The nurse who took my vitals was cheerful and put me at ease. The whole place just felt calm and efficient, which matters when you're not feeling great. Dr. Shah's clinic there runs like a well-oiled machine.
What stuck with me was how Dr. Shah talks to you. He doesn't just look at the chart; he looks at you. When I was worried about a medication side effect, he didn't dismiss it. He sat back, thought for a second, and we talked through three different options. He has this calm way of making you feel like you're figuring it out together.
