Apollo Firstmed Hospital Chennai Reviews

Had a persistent cough. Went to Apollo Firstmed. Dr. Venkataraman saw me, asked clear questions, ordered the right tests. Got a diagnosis and a treatment plan that worked. Follow-up was efficient. Parking was a hassle, but the medical care was direct and effective. Problem solved.

My visit with Dr. Indra was such a calm experience. I'm a quiet person and sometimes feel rushed, but she has a gentle way of speaking. She waited for me to finish my sentences and checked that I understood each step. The room was quiet, and she even wrote a few things down for me to remember. It felt like careful, personal attention.

Finally! Someone who figured out what was going on with my stomach issues. I'd seen a couple of doctors before and was starting to get frustrated. Dr. Venkataraman actually pieced it together. She was so thorough, asked about things no one else did. When she explained the plan, I felt this huge sense of relief. Honestly, just knowing there's a path forward makes all the difference. Really, really good doctor.

Had my gallbladder out last month. The surgery itself is a blur, but I remember Dr. Nithyanandam being really clear about what to expect afterwards. The pain plan he set up actually worked—I wasn't just knocked out, I could manage it and start moving. Follow-up was good, he answered all my panicky texts to the hospital portal. Still sore sometimes, but he said that's normal.

At my age, one does not wish to be a bother. Dr. Nithyanandam treated me with great respect and patience during my stay at Apollo Firstmed. He explained my condition regarding the persistent fever in a way I could understand, without rushing me. The nursing staff followed his instructions carefully. I felt properly looked after, which is a comfort when you're not at home.

Went in for a nasty skin infection that wouldn't quit. Dr. Nithyanandam fixed it. No nonsense, told me exactly what it was and how the treatment would work. Prescription did the job. Good doctor.

I'd been putting off seeing someone about this ache in my side for weeks, figuring it was just stress. Finally went to Apollo Firstmed, parking was a nightmare that day. Dr. Nithyanandam didn't just shrug it off. He asked a ton of questions, even some that seemed unrelated, and actually pressed around my abdomen. Turns out it was a mild kidney thing, not serious but needed attention. He drew a little diagram on the paper sheet to show me what was likely happening. What stuck with me was that he called two days later, himself, just to check if the meds were working and the pain was easing. You don't get that often.

My 8-year-old son had a high fever that wouldn't break, and I was a complete mess. Dr. Jayamoorthy at Apollo Firstmed was so calm with him, explaining everything in a way a kid could understand. He didn't just treat the fever; he took the time to figure out the root cause, which turned out to be a tricky ear infection. I felt heard as a parent, not just rushed through. The clinic was busy and we waited a bit, but the care we got was worth every minute.

When my elderly mother was admitted, Dr. T Jayamoorthy was the one who kept our family in the loop. He called me directly after his rounds to explain her condition in plain language, not medical jargon. He was honest about what to expect but always kind, and he actually listened to our concerns about her medications at home. In a stressful time, that clear communication meant everything to us.

Had a weird stomach thing for weeks. Went to see Dr. Jayamoorthy. He figured it out fast, gave me a straightforward plan. Fixed me up. Good doctor.

I've had this nagging cough for over a month, and honestly, I was starting to get worried it was something serious. My appointment with Dr. Jayamoorthy was late in the day, and I could tell he was tired, but he still gave me his full attention. He asked about my work, my commute, everything—turns out it was a combination of allergies and acid reflux from stress. His diagnosis made total sense. He wrote the prescriptions, but more importantly, he gave me some practical lifestyle tips that actually helped. It's been three weeks now, and I'm finally feeling like myself again.

My 8-year-old son had been having these awful stomach pains for weeks. We were so scared. The waiting area was busy, but when we finally saw Dr. Purushothaman, he was so calm. He got down on my son's level, asked him about his favorite cartoons, and explained everything in a way a kid could understand. He didn't just rush to tests; he listened to our whole story. He figured out it was a food sensitivity and gave us a simple plan. Seeing my boy smile and eat properly again... that's everything.

Had a persistent fever and fatigue. Went to Apollo Firstmed. Dr. Purushothaman V. saw me. He was direct, asked clear questions, ordered the right blood work. Diagnosis was a bacterial infection. Prescribed antibiotics. Followed up in two days. Fever broke. Felt better quickly. Efficient. No nonsense. Good doctor.

I was quite nervous about my check-up, as I’d been putting it off. Dr. Purushothaman has a very gentle way about him. He made sure I was comfortable before proceeding, and he explained each step of the examination quietly. He took the time to answer my little worries, which weren’t so little to me. It felt like a proper conversation, not just a visit. I left feeling heard and much more at ease.

Wow, what a relief! I'd been dragging myself to work with zero energy for a month. Convinced myself it was just stress. Dr. Purushothaman actually listened—really listened—and suggested a few checks I hadn't even thought of. Turns out my vitamin levels were in the basement! Started the supplements he recommended, and within a week, I felt like a new person. So glad I walked into his clinic at Apollo. He actually solved it!

My 8-year-old son had a high fever that just wouldn't break, and I was really scared. Dr. Sandhya at Apollo Firstmed was so calm with him, explained everything in a way he could understand, and even remembered his fear of throat swabs from a previous visit. She took the time to talk to me after, not just about the medicine but about how to keep him comfortable at home. It made a scary situation feel manageable.

I've been seeing Dr. Sandhya for my blood pressure and general health for almost a decade now, since she was at her old clinic. Following her to Apollo Firstmed was a no-brainer. She knows my whole history, remembers the little things I say, and never rushes me. That kind of consistency is hard to find. I trust her judgment completely because she's seen the ups and downs over the years.

Had a bad stomach bug. Went to see Dr. Sandhya. She was straight to the point, figured it out fast, and the meds worked. The hospital parking was a nightmare, but the appointment itself was efficient. Would see her again.

I walked into Apollo Firstmed last month feeling utterly run down—constant fatigue, headaches, the works. I was nervous it was something serious. Dr. Sandhya didn't just jot down symptoms; she asked about my work stress, my sleep, everything. She ordered the right tests but also talked about small lifestyle changes while we waited for results. Turns out it was a mix of things, and her approach of treating the whole picture, not just one part, really worked. The follow-up call to check on me was a nice touch.

For months, I just felt off—tired, some aches, nothing I could really point to. My old doctor kept saying it was stress. Dr. Venkataswami listened differently. He asked questions about things that seemed unrelated, like a weird rash I'd had. He connected dots I didn't even see, ordered a specific blood test, and found it was a tricky autoimmune thing. He explained it all with a diagram on his notepad. Finally having a name for it, and a plan, was a huge relief.
