Had a persistent stomach issue for weeks. Booked a slot with Dr. Rajiv Santosham online. Appointment was on time. He listened, asked clear questions, ordered the right tests. Got a diagnosis and a treatment plan that worked. No fuss, just effective care. Exactly what I needed.
I was quite nervous about some ongoing fatigue. Dr. Santosham has a very calm way about him. He didn't rush me, explained everything in simple terms. The hospital itself is large, but his clinic felt quiet. I left feeling heard and much less worried.
Wow, what a difference! I'd been to two other doctors for my back pain with no real help. From the first visit, Dr. Santosham was different. He actually figured it out! The relief after just a week of the new treatment is incredible. So glad I found him.
My visit was for a general check-up. Parking at Apollo was a bit of a hassle, I had to circle for a while. But once inside, things were smooth. Dr. Santosham was thorough, reviewed my history, and gave practical advice for my cholesterol. Straightforward and professional.
