Patient Experience
I'd been feeling off for months, tired all the time with weird aches. Saw a couple of doctors who just said it was stress. Dr. Suhashini 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 the standard panels. She explained it all on a notepad, drawing little diagrams. I'm on treatment now and finally starting to feel like myself. She didn't give up when it got confusing.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first—any procedure is scary. But Dr. Suhashini made it so straightforward. She told me exactly what would happen, step by step, and how long it would take. The whole thing was over in what felt like twenty minutes. The follow-up was quick, and the scar is barely there. It was just a simple, smooth experience, no drama.
The parking at MGM was a nightmare that day, completely full. I arrived flustered and late for my appointment. But the front desk lady was so calm, got me checked in quickly, and the nurse who took my vitals had a really nice way of chatting that settled me down. The waiting area was clean and quiet, which helped. By the time I saw the doctor, I wasn't stressed anymore. The whole team there just works well together.
What I remember most is how Dr. Suhashini talks to you. I'm an older patient, and sometimes doctors rush. She sat down, looked at me, not the computer, and asked about my life, not just my symptoms. When she explained my new blood pressure medication, she made sure I understood why and how to take it. She has a quiet, patient way about her that makes you feel like you're the only person in the room. That kind of care is rare.
I've been seeing Dr. Swetha for my blood pressure for about five years now. She remembers the small things—asks about my grandson, knows I forget to take my pills if my routine's off. I don't feel like just another file on her desk at MGM. She's steady, never in a rush to change things unless needed. That consistency is what keeps me coming back.
Had a stubborn skin rash. Went to Dr. Swetha Ravichandran at MGM. She looked at it, asked a few direct questions, prescribed a cream. It cleared up in a week. No fuss, no unnecessary tests. Appointment was on time. That's all I needed.
I was quite nervous about the persistent stomach issues. Dr. Swetha has such a calm way about her. She explained everything in a quiet voice, drew little diagrams on the pad. The hospital was busy, but in her room, it felt peaceful. I left feeling heard, and much less worried.
Finally got to the bottom of my constant fatigue! Dr. Swetha was the first to really listen and run the right checks. When she called with the thyroid results, I was so relieved to have an answer. She was practically cheering with me over the phone. Starting treatment now and already feel a spark coming back!
