At my age, you worry about being a bother. Dr. Nair never made me feel that way. He took time to explain everything about my medication change in simple terms. The clinic was busy, but he was so calm and patient. I left feeling reassured, not rushed.

Had my gallbladder out last month. The worst part was the first 48 hours, but Dr. Nair's team had a clear plan for the pain. He checked on me twice a day, even on Sunday. Told me exactly what to expect as I healed, which made a big difference. Still sore, but getting better each week.

Dr. Nair is good. Fixed my stomach issue that two other docs couldn't. Straight talk, no fluff. Parking at Apollo is always a nightmare, but he was worth the hassle.

Doctor: Dr. Salgunan Nair Hospital: Apollo Hospitals Greams Road

I'd been feeling run down for months. My wife finally dragged me in. I was pretty nervous, hate hospitals. Dr. Nair actually listened to my whole story—how work stress had been crazy, my sleep was off. He didn't just jump to tests. Ordered a couple of blood checks, found a vitamin deficiency I didn't know about. Started supplements, and within a few weeks, my energy was back. It wasn't some dramatic illness, but he figured out the simple thing everyone else missed.
