Dr. Arthi Narayanan

I've been seeing Dr. Arthi Narayanan for my diabetes management for over five years now. She remembers the small details from my last visit, asks about my family, and never makes me feel rushed. The Apollo centre is huge and can feel impersonal, but her clinic room is where that stops. She's the reason I haven't switched doctors, even after moving across town. You just don't find that kind of steady, reliable care everywhere.

When my father was admitted, we were all terrified and confused. Dr. Narayanan was the one who made sense of it for us. She took the time to explain everything to me and my sister in the waiting area, using simple terms and a whiteboard. She gave us her direct number for after-hours worries, which we used once, and she called back in ten minutes. That communication took a huge weight off our shoulders during the worst time.

Saw Dr. Narayanan for a persistent cough. Got in, she listened, ordered the right tests, sorted the meds. No fuss. Parking at Apollo is always a nightmare, but the appointment itself was straightforward and she knew her stuff.

I went in for what I thought was just bad heartburn. Dr. Narayanan, though, she didn't just write a prescription. She asked about my job stress, my diet, even noticed I was tapping my foot constantly. She said, 'Let's just check a few things to be sure.' That 'check' found a minor heart issue I had no idea about. I was nervous at first, thinking she was overreacting, but she walked me through each step. Because she looked past the obvious, we caught it early. I'm on a simple treatment plan now and feel better than I have in years.
