Patient Experience
I'd been to three different doctors for this persistent fatigue and low-grade fever. They all had different theories. Dr. Vaid was the first one who actually sat and listened to my whole history, even the stuff I thought was irrelevant. He ordered a specific set of tests the others hadn't, and it turned out to be a rare tick-borne infection. He explained it in a way that finally made sense. I'm on the right treatment now and starting to feel like myself.
Needed a colonoscopy, which honestly scared me more than it should have. The prep was the worst part, as everyone says. On the day, Dr. Vaid's team at Medanta had everything sorted. The procedure itself was over before I knew it. Dr. Vaid popped in after, showed me a couple of pictures on the screen saying everything looked clear, and that was that. It was just... straightforward. A relief to have it done and out of the way.
The hospital itself is huge, and I got a bit lost finding the right wing. One of the floor coordinators saw me looking at the map and walked me all the way to Dr. Vaid's clinic. The waiting area was calm, not like a typical crowded clinic. They had my file ready when I got there. It's those little things—someone helping you find your way, not having to repeat your story—that make a stressful visit feel manageable.
My mom was really anxious about her high blood pressure. Dr. Vaid has this way of talking that just calms her down. He doesn't rush. He'll ask about her garden, then gently steer the conversation back to her medication. He remembers small things she's told him before. She doesn't feel like just another patient with him; she feels heard. That means everything when you're worried about a parent.
