Patient Experience
I'd been to three other doctors for months with this weird fatigue and joint pain. Everyone said it was stress. Dr. Sharath Babu was the first one who actually sat and went through my old blood reports line by line. He asked questions about stuff no one else had, like a rash I'd had years ago. He suspected something specific, ordered the right test, and it came back positive for an autoimmune condition. He didn't make it a big drama, just laid out a clear plan. Finally having an answer, even a tough one, was a massive relief.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but the whole thing was so straightforward. Dr. Sharath Babu explained exactly what he'd do, the nurse was really calming, and it was over in what felt like ten minutes. The parking at Apollo Karapakkam was a bit of a hassle that day, but once inside, everything moved quickly. Follow-up was easy, and the scar is barely there now. Just a smooth experience from start to finish.
What stood out for me was how the whole place felt organized. My mom needed a check-up, and I was worried about navigating the hospital with her. The front desk people at Apollo were actually helpful, pointed us in the right direction, and the clinic area was clean and quiet. Dr. Sharath Babu's assistant was also great, made sure we had all the paperwork sorted before we left. It's the little things that make a stressful day easier.
I really appreciate how Dr. Sharath Babu talks to you. I had a lot of anxiety about some stomach issues, and he never made me feel silly for asking what I'm sure were basic questions. He listens properly, doesn't just nod while typing. He even drew a little diagram on his notepad to show me what was probably happening. You feel like you're talking to a person, not just a medical authority. That kind of respect means a lot.
