I'd been to a couple of doctors for this nagging abdominal pain, and everyone just said it was stress. Dr. Piramanayagam actually sat and listened to the whole timeline, asked about things I hadn't even thought were related. He ordered a specific scan the others hadn't, and it turned out to be a tricky gallbladder issue that was starting to cause problems elsewhere. He explained it all with a diagram on his notepad—no rush, even though I know he was busy. It wasn't just another prescription.

Needed to get a cyst removed from my back. Honestly, I was more worried about the scar than the procedure itself. Dr. Piramanayagam was really clear about what to expect, and the whole thing at Apollo was over in what felt like an hour. The worst part was probably the parking garage being full that morning. The stitches were so neat, and now a few months later, you can barely see a line. It was just... straightforward, exactly what you hope for.

First time at Apollo Greams Road, and I was a bit lost. The lady at the front desk saw me looking at the directory and walked me right to the clinic. The place is calm, not like some hospitals that feel chaotic. Even the nurse who took my vitals was chatting about the rain to put me at ease before the doctor came in. It sounds small, but when you're anxious, those little things make the actual appointment much easier.

What I remember most is how he talked to my elderly mother. She gets confused easily and was nervous about changing her medication. Dr. Piramanayagam didn't just talk to me; he faced her, spoke slowly, and checked if she understood each point. He even wrote the new schedule down in big letters for her. He has a quiet, patient way about him that made her feel like she was in good hands, not just being processed.
