Had a persistent stomach issue for months. Dr. Shantharam D. at Apollo saw me, got straight to the point, ordered the right tests, and had a clear treatment plan in one visit. No fluff, just fixed it. Exactly what I needed.
My elderly mother was admitted with a bad infection. Dr. Shantharam was so good at explaining things to us, the family, in simple terms. He called me himself with updates when things were changing. He treated her with real kindness, and more importantly, he made sure we understood every step. That meant the world to us.
Look, I was nervous. Never been a fan of hospitals. But Dr. Shantharam? Straight shooter. Told me what was wrong, what we could do about it, and what would happen if we did nothing. No sugar-coating. Parking at Apollo was a nightmare that day, but the doc himself was efficient and clear. Got me feeling better.
I'd been feeling run-down for ages, just blaming work stress. Finally went to Apollo and saw Dr. Shantharam. He didn't just brush me off. He listened to everything, asked a ton of questions I hadn't even thought about, and pieced it together. Turned out to be a vitamin deficiency and a minor thyroid thing I didn't know I had. The whole process, from the initial chat to the follow-up, felt thorough. He remembered small details from our first talk, which really made me feel heard. I'm on a simple regimen now and finally have my energy back.
