Patient Experience
I'd been to a couple of other doctors for this nagging fatigue and stomach pain, and everyone just said it was stress. Dr. Pushpa actually listened, really listened, and asked questions no one else had. She ordered some specific tests and figured out it was a tricky thyroid issue affecting my gut. It wasn't a quick fix, but having a real answer changed everything. She's sharp.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Pushpa talked me through the whole thing in the clinic itself—no medical jargon, just plain talk. The procedure itself was over in maybe twenty minutes. A bit sore afterwards, sure, but it was so straightforward. Felt silly for worrying so much.
The Apollo hospital in Vanagaram is a nice place. It's clean and doesn't feel as hectic as some others. What stood out for me was the front desk staff; my appointment got mixed up somehow, but the lady sorted it out calmly without making me feel like it was my fault. Even the nurse who took my vitals was really kind. It made the whole visit less stressful.
My mom was the patient, and she gets very anxious with doctors. Dr. Pushpa has this calm way about her. She didn't rush, let my mom ask the same question twice, and even cracked a small joke that made her smile. It wasn't about the medicine in that moment, it was about seeing my mom relax. That means a lot to our family.
