I'd been to three other doctors about this constant fatigue and stomach pain. Everyone said it was stress. Dr. Sajja actually listened, asked a bunch of questions that seemed unrelated at first, and ordered a specific test the others hadn't. Turns out it was a weird thyroid thing affecting my gut. He explained it all with a diagram on his notepad. Finally, an answer that made sense.

Had to get a cyst removed from my back. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Sajja made it feel like no big deal. The whole thing took maybe twenty minutes in his clinic at Star Hospital. He talked me through each step, the local anesthetic did its job, and I was out the door with clear instructions. Sometimes simple things just go right.

The parking at Star Hospital was a nightmare that day, completely full. By the time I got to the clinic, I was pretty flustered. But the lady at Dr. Sajja's front desk was so calm. She got me checked in, offered water, and the nurse who took my vitals had a really nice way of chatting that put me at ease. The whole place just felt organized, which helped a lot.

Doctor: Dr. Lokeswara Rao Sajja Hospital: Star Hospital Banjara Hills

What I remember most is how Dr. Sajja talked to my elderly mother. She gets confused easily and was scared about her blood pressure meds. He didn't just talk to me; he sat down, looked right at her, and explained everything in the simplest terms, repeating the key points. He didn't rush her questions. You could see her relax. That kind of patience is rare.
