Patient Experience
I'd been to three other doctors about this constant fatigue and pain. Everyone said it was stress. Dr. Jayakrishnan at Apollo Vanagaram actually listened, asked a ton of questions I hadn't been asked before, and ordered some specific tests. Turns out it was a thyroid issue that was mimicking other things. He explained it all on a notepad, drawing little diagrams. Finally felt like someone had actually solved the puzzle.
Needed to get a cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first—any procedure is scary. But Dr. Jayakrishnan made it feel really straightforward. The whole thing at Apollo was quick; in and out the same day. The incision is tiny, healed up fast with no fuss. It was just a simple thing, but he treated it with care, which I appreciated.
The parking at Apollo Vanagaram was packed the day of my dad's appointment, which stressed me out. But once we got inside, the front desk people were really calm and got us sorted fast. The whole place felt clean and quiet, not chaotic. It made a big difference when you're already worried. Even the nurse who took vitals had a nice way about her.
What I remember most is how Dr. Jayakrishnan talks to you. He doesn't rush. My mother, who's quite old, was confused about her medication. He sat down, looked right at her, and explained it again slowly in simple terms until she nodded. He has a quiet, patient way that makes you feel like you're the only person he has to see that day.
