Patient Experience
I'd been to three other doctors for this nagging fatigue and stomach pain. Everyone said it was stress. Dr. Hemavathi actually listened, asked a ton of questions I hadn't been asked before, and ordered some specific tests. Turns out it was a tricky thyroid issue affecting my gut. She explained the link in a way that finally made sense. I'm on the right treatment now and feel like myself again.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Hemavathi made it so straightforward. The whole thing at Apollo DRDO was quick—in and out in a few hours. She talked me through each step, the local anesthetic worked fine, and I was back home with simple instructions before lunch. Sometimes simple things going right is all you need.
The place was busy, I had to wait a bit past my appointment time, which I expected. But what stood out was how the nurse at the desk kept checking in with us in the waiting area, and the assistant in Dr. Hemavathi's room was really calming. The clinic itself felt clean and quiet, which helped a lot when you're not feeling great. It felt like a team effort.
My teenage son had to see her, and he was being a typical grumpy, closed-off kid about it. Dr. Hemavathi didn't push. She chatted with him about school and sports first, got him to relax, and then gently got into the health stuff. He actually answered her! She has a way of making you feel heard without it being a big deal. That meant more to me than any medicine that day.
