Had my gallbladder out last month. Recovery was rough the first few days, but Dr. Santhosham's team had a clear plan for the pain. They didn't just throw pills at me; they explained what to expect and when to call. The follow-up at Apollo was straightforward. I'm back to making my own meals now, which feels like a win.

Doctor: Dr. Raja Mahesh Hospital: Apollo Hospitals Greams Road

My 8-year-old son had a high fever that wouldn't break, and we were really scared. Dr. Mahesh was so calm with him, explained everything in a way my son could understand, and didn't just throw antibiotics at us. He took the time to figure out it was a viral thing and told us exactly what to watch for. We left feeling like we could actually handle it. He made a scary situation much less frightening for all of us.

Look, I don't like going to doctors. Felt run down for ages though. Saw Dr. Raja Mahesh. He listened, didn't rush me, and figured out my thyroid was out of whack. On meds now and feel like myself again. Parking at Apollo is always a nightmare, but he was worth it.

Doctor: Dr. Raja Mahesh Hospital: Apollo Hospitals Greams Road

I went to Dr. Raja Mahesh with what I thought was just bad heartburn. He asked a lot of questions—about my stress at work, my diet, even my sleep. I was a bit nervous he'd find something serious. He sent me for a scan just to be thorough, and it turned out to be a minor hiatal hernia, nothing scary. What stuck with me was how he called me himself with the results instead of having a nurse do it, and spent ten minutes explaining what it meant and how to manage it. It felt like he actually cared about the whole picture, not just the symptom I walked in with.

Wow, what a difference! I'd been to two other doctors for my back pain with no real help. From the first visit, Dr. Santosham was different. He actually figured it out! The relief after just a week of the new treatment is incredible. So glad I found him.

My visit was for a general check-up. Parking at Apollo was a bit of a hassle, I had to circle for a while. But once inside, things were smooth. Dr. Santosham was thorough, reviewed my history, and gave practical advice for my cholesterol. Straightforward and professional.

Doctor: Dr. Somasundaram A C Hospital: Apollo Hospitals Greams Road

My 8-year-old son, Arjun, had been complaining of stomach pains for weeks. We'd seen a couple of doctors, but nothing seemed to help. I was so scared. When we met Dr. Somasundaram at Apollo, he didn't just look at the reports. He sat on the edge of the bed and talked to Arjun about his favorite cartoons, making him laugh. He explained everything to me in simple terms, not just medical jargon. He figured out it was a food sensitivity we'd never considered. He was so patient with my endless questions. Seeing my boy finally eat without pain and get his energy back... that's everything.

I was quite anxious about my procedure. The hospital is big and can feel overwhelming. But Dr. Somasundaram has a very calm way about him. He listened quietly to all my worries and never made me feel rushed. His explanations were clear and he checked on me personally each morning, even when I know he was very busy. It felt like genuine care, not just routine. The nursing staff mentioned how often he reviews his patients' charts. I left feeling well looked after, and I'm healing nicely.

Doctor: Dr. Somasundaram A C Hospital: Apollo Hospitals Greams Road

Honestly, I was a mess before seeing Dr. Somasundaram! I had this lingering issue that was really affecting my daily life. From the first consultation, he was so reassuring and had a plan. The wait for the surgery date felt long, but his team kept me informed. After the operation at Apollo, the difference was night and day! He high-fived me when he saw my recovery progress. I finally feel like myself again. My family and I are so, so relieved. Dr. Somasundaram and his team are fantastic!

Doctor: Dr. Vijayakumar S Hospital: Apollo Hospitals Greams Road

I'd been to a couple of doctors about this nagging fatigue and stomach issue, and everyone had a different theory. Honestly, I was starting to think it was all in my head. Dr. Vijayakumar was different. He actually sat and listened to the whole, messy story, asked questions no one else had, and ordered a specific test the others hadn't considered. Turns out it was a tricky vitamin deficiency mimicking other problems. He explained it in a way that finally made sense. I'm just relieved someone finally figured it out.

Needed a minor cyst removal, and I was a bit nervous about the whole thing. The procedure itself at Apollo was straightforward. Dr. Vijayakumar talked me through each step as he worked, which really helped. It was over before I knew it. The whole experience was just... normal. In a good way. No drama, no fuss, just a clean, efficient job done. The follow-up was quick and easy, too.

Doctor: Dr. Vijayakumar S Hospital: Apollo Hospitals Greams Road

Look, the parking at Apollo Greams Road is always a bit of a hunt, I won't lie. But once I got inside, the place just runs smoothly. The front desk staff sorted my paperwork without any hassle, and the nurse who took my vitals was really kind—she could tell I was anxious and cracked a small joke to lighten the mood. It made waiting to see Dr. Vijayakumar much easier. The whole environment feels competent, which matters when you're not feeling your best.

Doctor: Dr. Vijayakumar S Hospital: Apollo Hospitals Greams Road

What I remember most is how Dr. Vijayakumar didn't just talk at me. When he came into the room, he pulled up a stool and sat down, right at my level. He asked about my job, how the symptoms were affecting my day-to-day, not just the medical history. When he explained my treatment plan, he checked in to make sure I understood and was comfortable with it. It felt like a conversation, not a lecture. That kind of respect is rare.
