Apollo Hospitals Greams Road Reviews

Had my gallbladder out last month. The surgery itself went fine, but the first few days after were rough. Dr. Patel and his team really had my back with the pain meds—they listened when I said something wasn't working and adjusted things quickly. They didn't just send me home and forget about me; the nurse called to check in twice. Still sore, but getting better each week.

I was so scared going in—never been to a hospital for myself before. My hands were literally shaking in the waiting room. Dr. Patel just had this calm way about him. He explained everything in simple words, didn't rush me, and actually answered all my 'what if' questions without making me feel silly. Left feeling like a weight was off my shoulders. Big relief.

Needed a general check-up and some persistent heartburn looked at. Found Dr. Patel at Apollo. Straight shooter. Got to the point, ordered the right tests, explained the results clearly. No fluff. Parking at Greams Road is always a hassle, but the appointment itself was efficient. Got a workable plan. Done.

This goes back about six months. I'd been feeling run down for ages, seen a couple of doctors who just shrugged. Booked with Dr. Kunal Patel on a friend's say-so. I remember the room was cool, and he sat back after listening to my whole history and said, 'Okay, let's stop guessing and start mapping.' He laid out a step-by-step process—blood work, then a scan, then a scope. It felt organized. The follow-up call came on a Saturday morning; he himself called with the scan results. Turned out to be a manageable ulcer and a vitamin deficiency. What stuck with me was the methodical approach—no drama, just a clear path to fixing it. I'm back to my old self now.

I'd been to a couple of doctors for this nagging fatigue and stomach issue, and everyone just said it was stress. Dr. Padmanabhan was different. He actually listened to all the weird little details I thought were irrelevant, ordered some specific tests others hadn't, and figured out it was a tricky thyroid problem affecting my digestion. It wasn't a quick fix, but having a name for it and a clear plan made all the difference.

Had to get a minor cyst removed. Honestly, I was more nervous about the hospital process than the procedure itself. Dr. Padmanabhan explained everything in plain English, the whole thing took maybe twenty minutes, and I was back home by lunch. The scar is barely noticeable. Sometimes simple things just go right.

The Apollo waiting area was packed, I'll admit that. But what stood out was how the nurse at the front desk handled it. She remembered my name from my call, calmly directed everyone, and even found me a quieter corner to wait when she saw I was anxious. It felt like the team actually worked together, which made a hectic place feel manageable.

Look, I don't really like doctors. I went in with my guard up. But Dr. Padmanabhan has this calm way about him—no rush, no big ego. He sat down, asked about my work and family before even getting to the medical stuff. When he did examine me, he told me exactly what he was doing and why. Felt like I was talking to a really knowledgeable person, not just a medical authority.

I'd been to a couple of doctors for this nagging abdominal pain, and everyone just said it was stress. Dr. Piramanayagam actually sat and listened to the whole timeline, asked about things I hadn't even thought were related. He ordered a specific scan the others hadn't, and it turned out to be a tricky gallbladder issue that was starting to cause problems elsewhere. He explained it all with a diagram on his notepad—no rush, even though I know he was busy. It wasn't just another prescription.

Needed to get a cyst removed from my back. Honestly, I was more worried about the scar than the procedure itself. Dr. Piramanayagam was really clear about what to expect, and the whole thing at Apollo was over in what felt like an hour. The worst part was probably the parking garage being full that morning. The stitches were so neat, and now a few months later, you can barely see a line. It was just... straightforward, exactly what you hope for.

First time at Apollo Greams Road, and I was a bit lost. The lady at the front desk saw me looking at the directory and walked me right to the clinic. The place is calm, not like some hospitals that feel chaotic. Even the nurse who took my vitals was chatting about the rain to put me at ease before the doctor came in. It sounds small, but when you're anxious, those little things make the actual appointment much easier.

What I remember most is how he talked to my elderly mother. She gets confused easily and was nervous about changing her medication. Dr. Piramanayagam didn't just talk to me; he faced her, spoke slowly, and checked if she understood each point. He even wrote the new schedule down in big letters for her. He has a quiet, patient way about him that made her feel like she was in good hands, not just being processed.

Had my gallbladder out last month. The surgery itself was fine, but the first few days after were rough. Dr. Kalathur was really on it with the pain meds, checking in to adjust things so I could actually rest. He explained what the ache was from and how long it'd last, which stopped me from panicking. I'm back at work now, moving a bit slower, but getting there.

As a project manager, I don't have time for drawn-out appointments or vague answers. I went to Dr. Kalathur at Apollo with persistent stomach issues. He was direct, ordered the right tests quickly, and diagnosed a food intolerance. Gave me a clear plan. Problem identified, solution in hand, back to my schedule. Exactly what I needed.

Look, I was nervous. Never been great with doctors. But Dr. Kalathur is straight-up. No sugar-coating, but also no scare tactics. He listened to my worries about some weird fatigue I had, ran the bloodwork, and it was just a bad vitamin D deficiency. Told me what to take, how much, and to get some sun. Simple. Felt better in a couple weeks. Parking at Apollo is always a nightmare, though.

It started with this dull ache in my side that wouldn't quit. After a week of my wife telling me to see someone, I booked with Dr. Kalathur. The clinic was busy, I waited about 20 minutes past my slot flipping through a magazine. When I got in, he had this calm way about him. He asked a ton of questions, even some that seemed unrelated, and then pressed around my abdomen. He suspected it was my appendix even before the scan. He called me himself with the results later that evening and talked me through the next steps calmly. The whole thing, from that first ache to being discharged, felt managed, not rushed.

I'd been to a couple of doctors for this nagging fatigue and joint pain, and everyone said it was just stress. Dr. Shalini was different. She actually sat and listened, asked questions about things no one else had, and ordered some specific tests. Turns out it was something pretty rare. She explained it all to me in a way that finally made sense, without making me feel stupid. It was a long road, but she was with me for every step.

Had to get a minor cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Shalini made it so straightforward. The whole thing at Apollo was quick and efficient. She told me exactly what would happen, the procedure itself was over before I knew it, and the follow-up was just a simple check-in. Sometimes you just need something done right without any drama, and that's exactly what I got.

The parking at Apollo Greams Road was a nightmare that day, I was running late and flustered. But from the front desk to the nurses, everyone was so calm and helpful. It made a huge difference. By the time I saw Dr. Shalini, I'd actually relaxed a bit. The whole place just feels organized, and the staff really seem to know what they're doing.

What I remember most is how Dr. Shalini talked to my elderly mother. She never rushed her, she got down on her level to explain the medication changes, and she checked if *we* had any questions, not just her. It wasn't just about the prescription; it was about making sure my mom felt heard and comfortable. That kind of care is rare.
