Patient Experience
Had my gallbladder out last month. The first couple days were rough, I won't lie, but Dr. Jesupandian's team had a clear plan for the pain. He checked on me every morning, adjusted my meds based on how I was feeling, not just a schedule. By day four, I was moving around properly. The follow-up call from his nurse a week later was a nice touch.
My mother was admitted under Dr. Jesupandian. We were all scared and had a million questions. He took the time, every single day, to find me in the waiting area and explain things in simple terms—what the numbers meant, what the next step was. He never made us feel like we were bothering him, even when I asked the same thing twice. That patience meant the world to us while she got better.
Went in for a bad stomach issue that wouldn't go away. Dr. Jesupandian figured it out fast, ordered the right tests. Got me on some meds and a diet plan. Feeling much better now. Straightforward guy, knows his stuff.
I'd been putting off seeing someone about this nagging pain for ages. Finally booked with Dr. Jesupandian at Apollo Tondiarpet. The waiting room was packed, I was nervous. But he walked in, sat down, and just listened for a good five minutes before saying a word. He asked about my job, my stress levels, not just the symptoms. Ordered a few scans, called me himself with the results (it was just a severe muscle strain, thankfully). The whole thing felt personal, like he was solving a puzzle, not just processing a patient. Even the parking being full that day feels like a minor detail now.
Had a persistent cough for weeks. Dr. Ilayakumar at Apollo Tondiarpet saw me quickly, diagnosed it right, and gave me a treatment plan that worked. No fuss, just effective. Got me back to work.
I was really nervous going to the doctor alone for the first time. The waiting area was busy and I almost left. But Dr. Ilayakumar was so calm and took time to explain everything in simple terms. He didn't rush me at all. I walked out feeling like I could actually handle this.
Look, I needed a doctor's note for work and a check-up. Went to Apollo, saw Dr. Ilayakumar. He was straight to the point, asked the right questions, got it done. Parking was a nightmare though.
My story with Dr. Ilayakumar started last monsoon. I kept getting these dizzy spells, and my local clinic just said it was low BP. Went to Apollo Tondiarpet on a friend's push. The doctor listened to my whole history—even stuff I thought was unrelated—and asked about my diet and sleep. He connected dots my previous doctor missed. It wasn't just pills; he suggested small daily changes. A month later, the dizziness is gone. He remembers me each visit, asks about the changes. Feels like he actually cares about the long-term fix.
Had a persistent stomach issue for weeks. Booked an appointment online with Dr. Praveen Kumar. The clinic was busy, waited about 20 minutes. He listened, asked clear questions, and ordered a couple of tests. Got a straightforward diagnosis and a treatment plan that worked. No fuss, just effective care. Would recommend.
My husband was feeling very weak. We were worried. Dr. Praveen Kumar saw him at Apollo Tondiarpet. The doctor was very calm and kind. He explained everything in simple words, what was wrong and what medicine to take. It made us feel much better. He is a good doctor.
I was so stressed about this weird pain in my side. Convinced it was something serious. Saw Dr. Praveen Kumar. He was so reassuring! Did a thorough check-up, said it was likely muscular and gave me some advice. The relief was instant. Followed his instructions and it cleared up in a few days. He really put my mind at ease.
Went in for a general check-up. Parking at the hospital was a hassle, as usual. But the consultation with Dr. Kumar was efficient. He reviewed my history, asked about my lifestyle, and gave practical advice for my blood pressure. Felt heard and got a clear action plan without any unnecessary drama. Solid, professional experience.
Our two-year-old, Aarav, had been running a high fever for days and was just listless. We were so scared. The Apollo emergency was busy, but once we got to see Dr. Ekambaranath, he was so calm. He didn't just talk to us; he got down on his haunches and spoke softly to Aarav first, which made our boy stop crying. He explained everything about the viral infection in simple terms, told us exactly what to watch for, and even called the next morning to check in. Seeing my child smile again because a doctor took the time to be kind... that means everything.
Had a stubborn skin infection on my leg. Went to Apollo Tondiarpet. Dr. Ekambaranath examined it, asked about my work (I'm a mechanic), prescribed a strong antibiotic cream. Clear instructions: apply twice daily, keep it dry, come back in a week. It worked. No fuss, no unnecessary tests. Got the job done.
I was quite anxious about my persistent stomach issues. Dr. Ekambaranath listened so patiently to all my worries, never made me feel rushed. His clinic was running late that day, but he apologized for the wait. He suggested a gentle course of action first, rather than jumping to scopes. It's been a few weeks now, and following his advice, I feel much better. His quiet, sure way of doing things really put me at ease.
What a relief! I thought I had something seriously wrong—chest tightness, shortness of breath. Panic mode! Dr. Ekambaranath ran the tests, all clear, and then he actually sat me down and talked about anxiety and how it can physically manifest. He gave me some breathing techniques right there in the room! It wasn't just 'here's a pill.' He addressed the real root of it for me. I walked out of that hospital feeling lighter than I have in months. Brilliant doctor!
My father, 78, had a persistent fever that wouldn't break. We were worried sick. Dr. Bharathi Sezhian saw him at Apollo Tondiarpet. She didn't just talk to us; she drew a little diagram on a notepad to explain what might be happening inside his body. She called me herself the next evening with the test results, before we even had to ask. It was just a stubborn infection, but her way of explaining it took a huge weight off our shoulders. The hospital was busy that day, but she made us feel like we had all the time we needed.
Took my wife in for what we thought was just severe fatigue. Dr. Sezhian listened quietly, asked very specific questions about things we hadn't even thought were connected—like her skin and her sleep. She ordered the right tests, straight away. When the results pointed to a thyroid issue, her explanation was so clear. No confusing jargon. She laid out the treatment plan step-by-step. My wife started improving within weeks. We're both so relieved. It's the first time a doctor made us feel truly heard.
Our 10-year-old son had awful stomach pains. Kids' hospitals were packed, so we went to Apollo. I was nervous a general physician wouldn't know about children. Dr. Bharathi Sezhian was wonderful. She got down to his level, talked to him about his school and cartoons first. She figured out it was a food intolerance, not something scary. She gave him a choice between two medicines, which made him feel in control. Parking was a nightmare that morning, but honestly, after the appointment, we didn't even care. She was kind, smart, and fixed him.
After my mom's fall, we needed a doctor to manage her overall recovery. A friend recommended Dr. Sezhian. From the first visit, she coordinated everything—checking in with the ortho, reviewing her meds, even asking about mom's mood. She has this calm, direct way of speaking that cuts through the worry. She told us plainly what to expect, good and bad. Mom's doing so much better now, back in her garden. That coordination made all the difference; we weren't juggling different opinions anymore. Just one good doctor steering the ship.
