My mother was admitted with a high fever and confusion. We were all scared. Dr. Arvind was so clear with us, explaining what each test was for and what the possible causes were. He never rushed us when we had questions. He called me directly with updates, even late in the evening. Seeing him take the time to calm my mother down, speaking to her gently, meant more than I can say. She's home and recovering now.

Had a stubborn stomach issue for weeks. Went to Dr. Arvind K R at Apollo Firstmed. He listened, asked direct questions, ordered the right tests. No fancy talk, just clear facts. Diagnosis was straightforward, treatment worked. Parking at the hospital was a hassle that day, but the consultation itself was efficient and helpful. I'm fine now.

We were so worried about our father's sudden weight loss. Dr. Arvind has a very quiet, kind way about him. He didn't just look at the reports; he looked at my father, asked about his daily life. His explanations were soft but very sure. He made sure we all understood the treatment plan before we left. There's a real peace of mind he gives to families.

Finally! After seeing two other doctors for constant fatigue, Dr. Arvind figured it out. He actually went through my whole history again from the start. I was so relieved when he said, 'Okay, I think we've been missing this.' The energy is coming back. The hospital was busy and I waited a bit, but it was worth it for someone who really dug into the problem.
