At my age, you don't want to be rushed. Dr. Vignesh was so kind and patient with me at Apollo. He explained my blood pressure situation in a way I could understand, and never made me feel like I was asking a silly question. The whole thing was much less frightening than I'd feared.

My mother was admitted with a bad fever, and we were all very worried. Dr. Vignesh was the one who really calmed us down. He took the time to speak with my brother and me directly after each check-up, explaining what was happening in plain language. It made a stressful time so much easier to handle because we felt included and informed.

Had a stomach issue that wouldn't quit. Saw Dr. Vignesh at Apollo Greams Road. He was straight to the point, ordered the right tests, and fixed me up. No fuss, good doctor.

Doctor: Dr. Vignesh Thanikgaivasan Hospital: Apollo Hospitals Greams Road

I'd been feeling run down for weeks, just not myself. The Apollo waiting area was busy, I'll admit I was a bit nervous. But from the moment Dr. Thanikgaivasan walked in, he had this calm way about him. He didn't just glance at my chart; he asked about my work stress, my sleep, things I hadn't even connected. He pieced it together as a vitamin deficiency and some exhaustion, not anything scarier. The treatment was simple, but it was his approach—like he was solving a puzzle with me, not for me—that really made the difference. I left feeling heard, and more importantly, on the mend.
