Patient Experience
My husband had been to three different doctors for his fatigue and swelling, and they all said it was just stress. Dr. Priyadarshini at Kamineni actually listened. She ordered a specific set of tests no one else had, and found a rare kidney issue that explained everything. It was scary, but finally having a real answer and a plan made all the difference. She walked us through the treatment options without rushing us.
I needed a kidney biopsy, and I was really nervous about it. The procedure itself at the hospital was over before I knew it. Dr. Priyadarshini explained each step as she went, which helped a lot. The whole thing was straightforward, and I was back home resting the same day with clear instructions. It was a relief to have it done and dusted so smoothly.
Parking at King Koti is always a hassle, I'll be honest. But once I got inside Kamineni, the nephrology department felt calm. The nurses at the front desk remembered my name on my second visit, and the lab technician who took my blood was really gentle and chatted to distract me. It's those little things that make the visits less stressful.
What I really appreciate about Dr. Priyadarshini is how she talks to you. She doesn't just talk at you. When I was diagnosed with early kidney disease, she sat down, looked me in the eye, and asked, 'What part of this worries you the most?' We spent more time on my diet questions than anything else. She feels like a partner, not just an authority figure.
