Patient Experience
I'd been feeling run-down for months, and a few other doctors just shrugged it off as stress. Dr. Gumber was different. She actually listened, asked a ton of questions I hadn't been asked before, and ordered some specific tests. Turns out it was a thyroid issue that wasn't showing up on standard panels. She explained it all on a notepad, drawing little diagrams. I'm finally on the right treatment and feel like myself again.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Gumber made it so straightforward. The whole thing at Sarvodaya was quick in and out in a few hours. The procedure itself was fine, barely felt a thing. She checked in the next day herself, which I wasn't expecting. It healed up perfectly, no fuss.
The hospital itself is pretty busy, I won't lie, parking was a nightmare. But once I got inside for my appointment, the front desk people were really patient helping me find my way. The nurse who took my vitals had a nice chat with me about my grandkids, which calmed me down. It's the little things that make a difference when you're not feeling great.
What I really appreciate about Dr. Deepika is how she talks to you. She doesn't rush. I'm an older patient, and sometimes doctors use a lot of jargon. She breaks everything down, looks you in the eye, and makes sure you've understood. She has a calm way about her that just makes you feel like you're in good hands, even when the news isn't perfect.
