Patient Experience
I'd been to a couple of doctors about this nagging pain and fatigue, and everyone had a different theory. Honestly, I was getting pretty frustrated. Dr. Rahul Lath was different. He actually sat and listened to my whole history, asked questions the others hadn't, and ordered a specific test no one else had mentioned. It turned out to be something pretty uncommon. He explained it all clearly, without making me feel dumb, and we started a treatment plan that finally made sense. It was a relief to have someone actually figure it out.
Had to get a minor cyst removed. I was nervous at first, but Dr. Lath made the whole thing feel routine, in a good way. He told me exactly what he was going to do, step by step, during the procedure itself. It was over before I knew it. The follow-up was just a quick check-in. No drama, no fuss. Sometimes you just want things to be straightforward, and this was exactly that.
The Apollo facility is nice, sure, but what stood out was the team. The front desk remembered my name when I came back for a follow-up, which was a nice touch. The nurse who took my vitals saw I was a bit anxious and just chatted with me about the weather until I relaxed. It felt coordinated, like everyone from the receptionist to Dr. Lath's assistant was on the same page. It made the whole visit less stressful.
What I liked most about Dr. Lath is that he doesn't rush you. He walks in, sits down, and just talks. He asks how you're *really* doing. When I told him I was worried about some side effects, he didn't dismiss it; he took time to explain why they might happen and what we could do. He's got a calm way about him that makes you feel like you're in good hands, even when discussing the not-so-great stuff.
