I'd been to a few doctors about this persistent fatigue and stomach pain, and everyone just said it was stress. Dr. Raghunath actually listened. He asked a lot of questions I hadn't been asked before and ordered some specific tests. Turns out it was a tricky vitamin deficiency causing the issues, not just 'stress.' He explained it all on a notepad, drawing little diagrams. I finally feel like I have a real answer.

Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was pretty nervous about the whole thing, even though they said it was routine. Dr. Raghunath was really calm about it. He walked me through each step on the day, and the procedure itself was over before I knew it. The follow-up was quick, and he made sure the scar would be minimal. It was just... straightforward, which is exactly what you want.

The appointment at Apollo was early, and I remember the parking lot was already packed. But once I got inside, the front desk people were really efficient and friendly, which helped my mood. The whole place felt clean and calm, not chaotic. Even the nurse who took my vitals had a nice chat with me. It made the visit less of a chore.

What stuck with me about Dr. Raghunath was how he talked to my elderly mother. She gets confused easily. He didn't rush her. He sat down, made eye contact, and explained her new medication using simple words, checking if she understood. He has a quiet, patient way about him that puts you at ease. You don't feel like just another file on his desk.
