My 8-year-old son had a high fever that wouldn't break, and I was terrified. Dr. Ramakrishnan at Apollo saw us quickly, even though it was late. He didn't just talk to me; he got down on my son's level, explained everything in a way a kid could understand, and made him laugh. The whole team was so gentle with him. We left with clear instructions and, more importantly, my boy feeling safe. That meant the world.

Okay, so I'd been putting off this general check-up forever. The parking at Apollo was a nightmare, I was already annoyed. Then I met Dr. Ramakrishnan. He had this quiet way of asking questions that actually made me think. Instead of just listing symptoms, I ended up telling him about my work stress and poor sleep. He connected the dots I didn't see, ordered the right tests, and called me himself with the results. It wasn't just a prescription; it was a real conversation about getting my health back on track.
