Look, I don't do doctors. But I had to go. Dr. Kalaichelvi was straight with me—no sugar-coating, but also not scary about it. Told me what was wrong, what we could do, and what I needed to change. Parking was a nightmare, but the appointment itself was fine. She knows her stuff.

My story's a bit long. I'd been feeling off for months, putting it off. Finally saw Dr. Kalaichelvi. She listened to my whole history, even the stuff I thought was irrelevant. Ordered the right tests, and when the results came, she sat with me for a good twenty minutes drawing diagrams to explain what was happening and the plan. It wasn't just a prescription; I felt like I understood my own health for the first time. There was a bit of a wait that day, but it was worth it for that kind of attention.
