Apollo Cancer Centre

I needed a minor procedure and honestly, I was pretty nervous about it. But Dr. Thamburaj walked me through every single step beforehand, even drew a little diagram. The day of, it was over before I knew it. The whole thing was straightforward, no surprises. I was back home the same afternoon feeling fine.

The Apollo centre is a big place, and I got a bit turned around when I first arrived. One of the nurses at the front desk saw me looking lost and walked me right to Dr. Thamburaj's clinic. The whole team there, from the person who took my blood to the receptionist, just seemed to work together really well. It made a long day much easier.

What really stuck with me was how Dr. Thamburaj talks to you. He doesn't rush. He actually listens to your worries, even the silly ones. When he explains things, he uses normal words, not just medical jargon. I never felt like I was just another file on his desk.

My 8-year-old son was diagnosed with a rare abdominal mass. We were terrified. Dr. Raghavan was the first doctor who didn't just talk to us, but got down on his knee to talk to our son, explaining things in a way a child could grasp. The hospital was busy, and we waited a bit past our appointment, but once we were in his room, he gave us all the time we needed. He walked us through every scan, drew little diagrams, and his calmness when we were falling apart meant everything. Our son had surgery and is now recovering. Dr. Raghavan checked on him personally every single morning, even on a Sunday. We felt seen, not just as a case, but as a family.

My case was a real puzzle for a while. I'd been to a couple of doctors with these vague symptoms, and nothing was adding up. Dr. Thamburaj was the first one to really sit and connect the dots. He ordered a specific test the others hadn't, and it finally gave us an answer. It was a relief just to know what we were dealing with, and his plan from there made sense.
