Patient Experience
I'd been to a few doctors about this constant fatigue and weird stomach pain. Everyone said it was stress. Dr. Praveen Kumar actually listened, asked a ton of questions I hadn't been asked before, and ordered some specific tests. Turns out it was a tricky thyroid issue combined with a mild food intolerance. He explained it all on a notepad, drawing little diagrams. I finally feel like I have a real answer and a plan.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Praveen Kumar made it so straightforward. The whole thing was over in what felt like twenty minutes. He talked me through each step as he was doing it, which really kept my mind off things. The recovery was exactly as he said it would be—simple and quick. It was just a relief to have it done without any fuss.
The parking at Apollo was full that day, so I was a bit flustered when I arrived. But from the front desk to the nurses in the clinic, everyone was really calm and helpful. The place itself is clean and doesn't feel as intimidating as some hospitals. It made waiting for my appointment with Dr. Praveen Kumar much easier. Good support staff makes a real difference when you're not feeling your best.
What stood out for me was how Dr. Praveen Kumar talks to you. He doesn't rush. When I was worried about some medication side effects, he sat back and said, 'Okay, let's talk about what's bothering you.' He didn't just dismiss my concerns; he addressed them one by one in plain language. You leave his room feeling heard, not just processed.
