I'd been to three other doctors for this persistent stomach pain and fatigue, and everyone just said it was stress. Dr. Balamurugan actually listened. He asked about things no one else did, like a trip I took months ago. He ordered a specific test the others hadn't, and it turned out to be a tricky parasitic infection. He explained it all on a notepad, drawing the lifecycle. I'm finally on the mend.
Had to get a cyst removed from my back. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Balamurugan made it so straightforward. The whole thing was over in what felt like twenty minutes. He talked me through each step, and the local anesthetic worked perfectly. The stitches were so neat my wife said you can barely see the scar now. It was just... easy.
The parking at Apollo Greams Road was a nightmare that day, I won't lie. But once I got inside, it made a difference. The front desk lady saw I was flustered and helped me find my way. The nurse who took my vitals was really kind and cracked a joke to settle my nerves. Even the cleaner in the hallway gave me a smile. It felt like a team effort, not just a doctor's appointment.
What stuck with me about Dr. Balamurugan was how he talked to my elderly mother. She gets confused easily. He didn't just look at me; he sat down, made eye contact with her, and explained her new medication in the simplest terms, checking if she understood. He has this calm, patient way about him that made her trust him immediately. That means more than any medicine sometimes.
