Patient Experience
I'd been to three other doctors for this weird, lingering fatigue and stomach pain. Everyone said it was stress. Dr. Tamilselvan was the first one who actually sat and listened, really listened, to the whole timeline. He ordered a specific test the others hadn't, and it turned out to be a tricky parasite. He explained it in plain Tamil, drew a little diagram on his notepad, and the treatment worked. I feel like myself again.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Tamilselvan made it seem so straightforward. The whole thing at Apollo Vanagaram was quick – in and out in a few hours. The procedure itself was fine, barely felt a thing. He checked in the next day himself, which I wasn't expecting. It healed up perfectly, no fuss.
The hospital itself is nice and calm, which helps when you're anxious. But what really stood out was the team. The nurse at the front desk saw I was alone and kept me updated on the wait, and the lab technician was so gentle with the blood draw. It felt like everyone, from the doctor to the support staff, was on the same page and genuinely cared.
What I'll remember most is how Dr. Tamilselvan talks to you. He doesn't just talk at you. When I was worried about my blood pressure, he didn't just hand me a pill. He asked about my job, my diet, even how much tea I drink. He gave me practical things to try first. He has this calm way of making you feel like you're figuring it out together, not like you're just another case.
