Patient Experience
My mother was admitted with a high fever and confusion. The ER was busy, and we were scared. Dr. Padmini came in, sat with us, and explained everything in simple Telugu. She didn't just talk to us; she listened. She told us the plan for each test, what they were looking for. It turned out to be a tricky infection, but she got it under control. My mother is home now, back to her old self. We felt seen.
Took my son in for severe stomach pain. The parking at Star Hospital was a nightmare, honestly. But once we got to Dr. Padmini, things changed. She was direct. She asked clear questions, examined him thoroughly, and said it was likely appendicitis. She arranged the scan quickly and confirmed it. Her no-nonsense approach during a stressful time was exactly what we needed. Surgery went smoothly. He's recovering well.
My husband had been feeling unwell for weeks, tired and weak. Other doctors were in a hurry. Dr. Padmini was different. She spoke so gently, asked about his work, his stress. She ordered some tests and called us herself with the results, explaining that his iron was very low. She laid out a simple treatment plan and checked in after a week. It wasn't a dramatic crisis, but her kindness and attention made all the difference. He's getting his energy back.
We rushed my father to Star Hospital after a fall. It was chaotic. Dr. Padmini managed his care, and wow, what a relief. She'd pop into the room with updates, even small ones—'CT scan is clear,' 'vitals are stable.' She was genuinely enthusiastic when he started sitting up on his own. She high-fived him! It made a scary situation feel manageable. We're so glad she was the one on duty that day.
