Patient Experience
Had my gallbladder out with Dr. Ramkumar. The first couple days were rough, I won't lie. But his team had a clear plan for the pain and he checked on me every morning, adjusting things as I got better. He was straight with me about what to expect, which helped a lot. I'm moving around much easier now.
At my age, one worries about being a bother. Dr. Ramkumar at Apollo was never rushed. He explained my arthritis options so my daughter and I could understand, and he asked about my comfort at home. A very kind and patient doctor.
Needed a general surgeon, got Dr. Ramkumar T. He fixed my hernia. Quick, clear explanation. Surgery went fine. Would see him again.
I was really nervous about the abdominal surgery. From the first consult, Dr. Ramkumar just had a calm way about him. He drew a simple diagram on the notepad to show me exactly what he'd do. The day of, I remember him asking the anesthetist to wait a moment so he could answer one last question from my wife. It was a small thing, but it meant everything. Recovery had its ups and downs—some days I felt great, others I was sore and tired. But his team never made me feel like I was complaining when I called. They just helped me through it. I'm back to work now, and while I've got a scar, I also have my life back.
