Doctor: Dr. Harikrishnan Nair Hospital: Medanta The Medicity

My local doctors were stumped for months. I kept getting these dizzy spells, and they kept saying it was just anxiety. Dr. Harikrishnan Nair at Medanta was the first one who really listened. He ordered a specific scan no one else had, and it showed this weird, tangled blood vessel near my heart that was the culprit. Explaining it to me, he drew a picture on a napkin. The surgery was scary, sure, but he made the complex feel manageable. I haven't felt that dizzy since.

Doctor: Dr. Harikrishnan Nair Hospital: Medanta The Medicity

I needed a straightforward valve replacement. Honestly, I was more nervous about the hospital stay than the surgery itself. Dr. Nair's team made it all pretty simple. The procedure itself went just as they said it would—no surprises. I was up and walking the next day, and the recovery instructions were clear. Sometimes the smoothest experiences are the ones you appreciate the most. It just worked.

Parking at Medanta is always a bit of a hunt, I won't lie. But once you're inside, it's a different world. The cardiac ward felt calm, not chaotic. What really stood out was the nursing staff; they seemed to know what you needed before you asked. One nurse, I think her name was Priya, noticed I was struggling to read my book and found me a better lamp without me saying a word. That kind of attention makes a huge difference when you're feeling vulnerable.

Doctor: Dr. Harikrishnan Nair Hospital: Medanta The Medicity

You know how some surgeons can seem a bit... detached? Dr. Nair isn't like that. Before my bypass, he came and sat on the edge of my bed and just talked. Not just about the surgery, but about my family, what I did for a living. He remembered my granddaughter's name from a previous chat. That human connection, him seeing me as a person and not just a case, is what got me through the fear. He's got a quiet way of making you feel safe.
