My 8-year-old son, Arjun, had been complaining of stomach pains for weeks. We'd seen a couple of doctors, but nothing seemed to help. I was so worried, just watching him get quieter and not wanting to play. We got an appointment with Dr. Karunakar Rapolu. He didn't just look at the chart; he got down on Arjun's level, asked him about his favorite cartoons while he gently pressed on his tummy. He explained everything to me in simple terms—what he thought it was, what tests he wanted to run, and why. The waiting room was busy, but in his office, he made us feel like we were his only patients. The treatment plan worked. Seeing Arjun run around again... that's everything. Dr. Rapolu understood a scared mom's heart.

I was quite nervous about my procedure, to be honest. Dr. Rapolu has a very calm way about him. He spoke softly, made sure I understood each step before we moved forward. He remembered small things I'd mentioned in a previous visit, which made me feel seen, not just like another case. Yes, the parking lot was very full that day, and I had to wait a little while, but once I was with him, he gave me his full attention. I'm recovering well now. His kindness meant a great deal during a stressful time.

Wow, what a difference! I'd been dragging myself around with zero energy for months, feeling just awful. My wife finally pushed me to see someone. Dr. Rapolu? Total breath of fresh air! He was so thorough—went over my history with a fine-tooth comb, ordered some tests I'd never had before. Called me himself with the results and laid out a plan. It wasn't magic, but following his advice, I started feeling better within a couple of weeks. I've got my energy back! Seriously, so glad I went to see him. Huge weight off my shoulders!
