Patient Experience
I'd been to three other doctors with this nagging abdominal pain and fatigue, everyone said it was just stress. Dr. Kulkarni was the first one who actually stopped and listened to my whole history. He ordered a specific test the others hadn't, and it turned out to be a rare parasitic infection. Completely unexpected, but he explained it in a way that made sense and got me on the right treatment straight away. He didn't just treat a symptom, he found the actual problem.
Had to get a small cyst removed from my back. Honestly, I was nervous about any kind of surgery, even a minor one. Dr. Kulkarni walked me through the whole thing in his clinic, even drew a little diagram. The day of the procedure at Star Hospital was surprisingly straightforward. In and out in a few hours, and the scar is barely noticeable now. It was just... simple, exactly what you hope for.
Parking at Star Hospital in Nanakramguda is a nightmare, I'll be honest. But once I got inside, the whole experience changed. The front desk lady saw I was flustered and helped me find my way. The nurse in Dr. Kulkarni's section was really kind, and the place just felt calm and clean. It made waiting a bit for my appointment much easier.
What I remember most is how he talks to you. I'm an older patient, and sometimes doctors rush. Dr. Kulkarni sat down, looked me in the eye, and asked about my life, not just my blood pressure. He remembers my granddaughter's name. When he explains things, he uses plain language, no confusing medical jargon. You leave feeling like a person, not just a case file.
