My hands were sweating in the waiting room. It was my first time seeing a doctor for this kind of stomach issue and I was really worried. Dr. Elankumaran came in and just had this calm way about him. He listened to all my jumbled-up fears without rushing me, explained everything in simple terms, and by the end, I felt silly for being so nervous. He just made it feel manageable. The hospital itself was busy, but he made the appointment feel personal.
Had a persistent cough for weeks. Went to Apollo Greams Road. Saw Dr. Elankumaran K. Appointment was on time. He asked clear questions, checked me over, ordered the right tests. Diagnosis was straightforward, got a prescription. Follow-up was efficient. Problem resolved. Good experience.
I was feeling quite unwell for some time and was a bit afraid to see anyone. Dr. Elankumaran was so kind. He has a gentle way of speaking that puts you at ease. He took his time during the consultation, which I truly appreciated. Even though the parking lot was quite full that day, once I was in his room, I didn't feel rushed at all. He helped me understand my condition better, and I'm feeling much more hopeful now.
What a relief! I'd been to two other doctors about this nagging pain and was getting nowhere. From the minute Dr. Elankumaran walked in, I could tell he was really thinking. He actually looked at my old reports, asked a bunch of new questions I hadn't heard before, and figured it out. It wasn't some magic cure, but having a clear plan and someone who actually listened? Huge. I'm so glad I booked that appointment!
