Patient Experience
My father was admitted with severe abdominal pain. We were all scared, honestly. Dr. Chandra Sekhar came in, sat with us, and explained everything in Telugu, which meant a lot to my mom. He didn't rush. He told us the plan, what could go wrong, and what he would do. The surgery went well, and he called me himself that evening to say Appa was stable. He treated us like people, not just another case.
I brought my wife to Star Hospital. Parking was a nightmare, I won't lie. But once we met Dr. Sekhar, things changed. He listened to her symptoms, asked a few direct questions, and ordered the right tests. No fuss. He diagnosed a gallbladder issue we'd missed for months. His team was efficient. We felt heard for the first time. She's recovering nicely now.
My young son had a high fever that wouldn't break. At the hospital, I was a nervous wreck. Dr. Chandra Sekhar has a very calm way about him. He spoke softly, examined my boy thoroughly, and assured me it was a severe infection but treatable. He explained the medication in simple terms. He remembered our names the next day when he checked in. That personal touch meant the world when you're feeling so helpless.
After my mom's surgery, we were worried about recovery. Dr. Sekhar was fantastic! He was so clear with his instructions—what to eat, how to move, what's normal pain and what's not. He gave us his direct line for concerns. We used it once, and he answered right away. The relief we felt having that access was huge. The hospital is busy, but he never made us feel like we were bothering him. Mom's back at her temple visits now, all thanks to him.
