Doctor: Dr. Shubham Purkayastha Hospital: Apollo Excelcare Guwahati

I've been seeing Dr. Shubham for my diabetes and blood pressure for over five years now. He remembers my history without always checking the file, which I appreciate. The clinic at Apollo can get busy, but he never rushes our appointments. I trust his judgment completely because he explains things clearly and his advice has kept me stable for years.

Had my gallbladder out last month. The surgery itself went fine, but the first few days after were rough. Dr. Shubham was really good about the pain meds—listened when I said something wasn't working and adjusted things quickly. His follow-up calls to check on my recovery made a big difference. I'm back to normal now, and the scar looks neat.

Look, I was sick of feeling tired all the time. Went to Dr. Shubham at Apollo. He ran some tests, figured it was a major vitamin D deficiency. Prescribed supplements. Simple fix. Feeling much better now. He's direct, which I like.

Doctor: Dr. Shubham Purkayastha Hospital: Apollo Excelcare Guwahati

I walked into Apollo Excelcare with this nagging stomach pain that wouldn't go away. I was pretty nervous, to be honest. Dr. Purkayastha sat me down, asked a ton of questions about my diet and stress levels—more than I expected. He sketched out a simple diagram on his notepad to show what he thought was going on. We did a scan to confirm, and he was right. Started treatment that week. The waiting room was packed that day, but he made the time feel like it was just about figuring my problem out.
