Patient Experience
My husband was diagnosed with a rare abdominal tumor. We were scared and confused. Dr. Bhargavi sat with us for nearly an hour, drawing diagrams on a notepad to explain exactly what was happening and what the surgery would involve. She never rushed us, even when we asked the same question twice. Her calmness made all the difference. The surgery went well, and she called me herself that evening to give the update. We felt looked after, not just treated.
Took my mother to see Dr. Bhargavi. The hospital was busy, and we had to wait a bit, but it was worth it. The doctor spoke directly to my mom, not just to me. She laid out the options for her gallbladder issue in simple terms—surgery or manage with diet. No pressure. She helped my mom make her own choice. Follow-up was easy; her team actually answers the phone. Mom's doing great now.
After two other opinions that left us more anxious, meeting Dr. Bhargavi was a huge relief. My sister's case was complex, but the doctor broke it down step-by-step. She was honest about the risks but confident in the plan. You could tell she'd really studied the file beforehand. The whole team at Apollo Cancer Centre was coordinated. Post-op, my sister had some pain, and Dr. Bhargavi adjusted the meds right away. Just a very competent, no-drama experience.
Honestly, I was a wreck when my dad got sick. First meeting, I was scribbling notes frantically. Dr. Bhargavi noticed and slowed right down. She said, 'Let's go through this together.' She gave us her email for non-urgent questions, which we used once or twice. She always replied simply and clearly. It wasn't just about fixing the medical problem; it felt like she understood the weight on the family. Dad's recovery has been smooth. We got really, really lucky with her.
