Dr. Rajesh Gudipati

I'd been to three other doctors for this weird, constant fatigue and joint pain. Everyone said it was stress. Dr. Gudipati at Star Hospital was the first one who actually listened to my whole history. He ordered a specific blood test the others hadn't, and it turned out to be something quite rare. He explained it all with a diagram on his notepad—didn't rush me at all. Finally having a name for it and a plan is such a relief.

Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was more nervous about the hospital experience than the procedure itself. But from check-in to discharge, it was straightforward. Dr. Gudipati's team at Banjara Hills had it down to a science. The procedure itself was quick, he told me exactly what he was doing as he did it, and the follow-up instructions were clear. Back to normal in a couple of days, no fuss.

The waiting area at Star Hospital was actually calm, not like the hectic places I'm used to. The nurses at the front desk remembered my name when I came back for my report, which was a nice touch. Even the person who took my blood samples was really gentle and chatted to distract me. It made the whole visit feel less clinical. Dr. Gudipati works with a good team there.

What stuck with me was how Dr. Gudipati talked to my elderly mother. She gets confused easily. He didn't just look at me; he sat down, made sure she was looking at him, and explained her new medication using the simplest terms. He checked twice that she understood. You don't see that kind of patience every day. It meant the world to her, and to me.
