I was so scared going in for my first ever check-up. Dr. Appaji just had this calm way about him that made me feel okay. He explained everything without making me feel silly for asking questions. I left feeling like I could actually handle this whole 'being an adult' thing.
At my age, one does not relish visits to the hospital. However, my consultation with Dr. Appaji Krishnan was a most agreeable experience. He listened with great patience to my various concerns and did not rush me at all. The entire process was conducted with a quiet courtesy that put me at ease. I felt properly looked after.
Had a persistent stomach issue. Went to see Dr. Appaji at Apollo Teynampet. He figured it out fast, gave me a clear plan. No fuss, got the job done. Would recommend.
So, I'd been putting off this general check-up for ages. The parking at Apollo was a nightmare that morning, which put me in a bad mood. By the time I got to Dr. Appaji's room, I was just grumpy. But he was different. He didn't just look at my chart; he asked about my work stress, my sleep, the whole picture. He connected some dots I didn't even know were there. The way he laid out a simple plan made it feel manageable, not overwhelming. It was the first time a doctor's visit felt like a real conversation, not just a transaction.
