My husband had been feeling off for months, just tired and achy. Our local doctor couldn't figure it out. We saw Dr. Vijay Kumar at Apollo, and honestly, I was prepared for another shrug. But he was different. He spent nearly an hour asking questions we'd never been asked, ordered some specific tests, and found it was a rare vitamin deficiency affecting his nerves. It wasn't some dramatic surgery, but figuring out that puzzle changed everything. He just knew where to look.
I needed my gallbladder out. Not an emergency, just one of those things. I was nervous, of course. Dr. Vijay Kumar explained the laparoscopic procedure in simple terms—no scary medical jargon. The surgery itself was quick, and my recovery was exactly how he said it would be. No surprises. I was back to my desk job in a week, feeling pretty much normal. Sometimes, straightforward is exactly what you need.
The parking at Apollo Greams Road was a nightmare that day, completely full. I was flustered by the time I got to the clinic. But the front desk lady was so calm, got me checked in, and the nurse who took my vitals had this great way of making small talk that actually settled me down. The place just runs smoothly. By the time Dr. Vijay Kumar came in, I wasn't stressed anymore. It makes a difference when the whole team is on point.
Look, I don't really like hospitals or doctors. I get awkward. But Dr. Vijay Kumar has this way of talking to you like you're just having a conversation in his office. He doesn't rush. When I told him I was worried about some minor symptoms, he didn't dismiss it; he took it seriously and explained why it was likely nothing, which actually made me feel better. He remembers little things from past visits, too. You feel like a person, not a chart.
