Patient Experience
I'd been to three doctors about this constant fatigue and weird stomach pain. Everyone said it was stress. Dr. Ravindranath 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 combined with a mild food intolerance. He explained it all on a notepad, drawing little diagrams. I finally feel like myself again, and it's because he didn't just go with the obvious answer.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but the whole thing was so straightforward. Dr. Ravindranath walked me through each step in the clinic itself, the procedure was quick, and the follow-up was just a simple phone call to confirm everything was healing fine. No drama, no fuss. Sometimes you just want things to be simple, and this was exactly that.
Parking at Star Hospital was a nightmare that day, completely full. I was flustered by the time I got to the clinic. But the front desk lady was really calm, got me sorted quickly, and the nurse who took my vitals had this great, relaxed way of talking that settled me right down. The place itself feels clean and quiet, which helps when you're waiting. It made a stressful start much better.
What I remember most is how he talks to you. I'm not great with medical terms, and my mind goes blank in clinics. Dr. Ravindranath has this way of explaining things without making you feel silly. He sat down, looked at me and not just the computer, and checked a couple of times to see if I'd actually understood. It felt like a conversation, not a lecture. That kind of respect means a lot.
