Patient Experience
Had to get a colonoscopy. Not exactly fun to think about, right? I was nervous at first, but Dr. Venkatraman and his team at Apollo made it straightforward. The whole thing was over before I knew it. He came and talked to me after, showed me a couple of pictures, said everything looked clear, and gave me the all-clear to go home. No drama, no fuss. Sometimes you just want things to be simple, and this was.
The parking at Apollo Greams Road was a nightmare that morning, I won't lie. But once I got inside for my check-up, the whole experience turned around. The nurse who took my vitals was really kind and calmed me down. The clinic area itself felt clean and quiet, not chaotic. When Dr. Venkatraman came in, he was completely focused, not flustered. It felt like the whole system, from the front desk to the doctor, was working together smoothly, which made a stressful day much easier.
What I remember most is how he talked to my elderly mother. She gets confused easily and was scared about some new medication. Dr. Venkatraman didn't just talk to me; he sat down, looked right at her, and explained everything in the simplest terms. He repeated things without sounding impatient. He has this calm way about him that just puts you at ease. You can tell he sees the person, not just the chart.
I was so nervous going in for my first check-up in years. Dr. Safi Naaz just had this calm way about her that put me at ease right away. She explained everything in simple terms and didn't rush me at all, even though I had a million questions. I walked out feeling like I'd actually been listened to, not just processed.
Needed a quick but thorough check-up between back-to-back meetings. Dr. Naaz at Apollo Greams Road got it done. Efficient, clear diagnosis, straightforward treatment plan. Exactly what I needed.
Look, I hate going to the doctor. But Dr. Naaz is good. No nonsense, tells you how it is, and gets to the point. The hospital's big and parking's a pain, but she's worth it.
I'd been feeling run down for weeks and was worried it was something serious. The wait at Apollo was a little long, but once I got in to see Dr. Naaz, she took her time. She asked about my work stress, my sleep, everything. Ordered the right tests, called me herself with the results (which were thankfully clear), and helped me make a plan to feel better. It wasn't just about a prescription; she actually cared about the whole picture.
Our 8-year-old son had been complaining of stomach pain for weeks. We were scared, and honestly, the hospital felt overwhelming. Dr. Sajan Hegde was the first doctor who really listened. He got down on my son's level, asked him about his favorite cartoons while he examined him. He explained everything to us in simple terms—no confusing medical jargon. It turned out to be something manageable, but the way he handled our son’s fear and our anxiety made all the difference. We left feeling like we finally had a plan and someone who genuinely cared.
Had a persistent fever that wouldn't break. Went to Apollo Greams Road. Saw Dr. Sajan K Hegde. He was direct, asked clear questions, ordered the right tests. Diagnosis was quick, treatment started immediately. Follow-up was straightforward. Problem solved. No fuss. Good doctor.
I was quite nervous about my check-up; hospitals make me a bit anxious. Dr. Hegde has such a calm way about him. He didn't rush me, and he answered all my little questions without making me feel silly. The waiting room was busy, but once I was in with him, he gave me his full attention. It felt like a proper conversation about my health, not just a transaction. I'm very grateful for his kind and thoughtful approach.
What a relief! I'd been feeling run-down for months, seeing different people, and getting nowhere. Then I met Dr. Hegde. Finally, someone who connected the dots! He actually looked at my whole history, not just the last symptom. He figured it out, got me on the right track, and I’ve felt better in weeks than I have in years. The man knows his stuff! Sure, parking at Apollo is always a mission, but it was totally worth it this time.
I'd been to a couple of doctors about this nagging fatigue and stomach issue, and everyone just said it was stress. Dr. Vijay Shankar actually listened. He asked questions no one else had, ordered some specific tests, and figured out it was a tricky thyroid problem affecting my gut. He explained it in a way that finally made sense. I'm on treatment now and feel like myself again.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Vijay Shankar made it so straightforward. The whole thing was over in what felt like minutes. He checked in the next day himself to see how the healing was going. It was just a routine thing for him, I'm sure, but he made me feel properly looked after.
The hospital itself is a bit of a maze, and the parking was full that day, which had me flustered. But once I got to Dr. Vijay Shankar's floor, the difference was clear. The front desk lady was really patient helping me with my forms, and the nurse who took my vitals had a calming way about her. It made waiting a bit for my appointment much less stressful.
What stuck with me most was how Dr. Vijay Shankar talks to you. He doesn't just look at the chart. He sits down, makes eye contact, and really hears you out. When I was worried about some test results, he didn't dismiss it; he walked me through each line calmly. You feel like a person, not just another case.
I've been seeing Dr. Pramod Kumar for nearly a decade now, since my diabetes diagnosis. What I value most is that he remembers me, my history, and my family. He doesn't rush to change things just for the sake of it. His approach is steady, and that consistency is what builds real trust. You don't find that everywhere.
As a senior citizen, one often feels like just another file. Not with Dr. Kumar at Apollo. He is always very respectful and takes the time to explain things in a way I can understand. He asks about my comfort and listens to my old-fashioned worries without making me feel silly. The clinic is busy, but he never makes you feel hurried.
Had a nasty stomach bug that wouldn't quit. Went to see Dr. Pramod Kumar. He figured it out fast, gave me a clear plan, and I was better in two days. No fuss, got straight to the point. Exactly what I needed.
I was really nervous about some persistent fatigue I'd been having. The wait at Apollo was a bit long that day, but once I got in, Dr. Kumar just had a way of putting me at ease. He asked questions I hadn't even thought to mention—about my sleep patterns, work stress, the whole picture. He ordered the right tests, called me himself with the results (which were thankfully clear), and spent time talking about lifestyle adjustments instead of just writing a prescription. It felt like he was solving a puzzle with me, not just treating a symptom.
I'd been to a few doctors about this nagging abdominal pain, and everyone said it was just stress. Dr. Reddy actually listened, really listened, to everything I described. He ordered a specific scan the others hadn't, and it turned out to be a pretty rare intestinal issue. He explained it all in a way that finally made sense, without making me feel stupid for being worried. It wasn't a quick fix, but having the right diagnosis was a huge relief.
