Patient Experience
Finally! Someone who actually figured out what was wrong with me. I'd been feeling off for months and Dr. Varalakshmi just... got it. She connected the dots other doctors missed. The medicine she gave me started working within days. I have my energy back! Honestly, what a relief.
I've been seeing Dr. Varalakshmi for my diabetes and general health for over five years now. She remembers the small things, like asking about my grandson or how my knee is holding up. That consistency means a lot. I don't feel like just another chart to her. She's straightforward about what I need to do, and when my sugar levels were acting up last month, she adjusted my plan without making it complicated. It's just solid, reliable care.
Had my gallbladder out last month, and Dr. Varalakshmi handled everything. The first couple days after were rough, I won't lie. But she was really clear about the pain med schedule and what to watch for. She checked on me in the hospital herself, not just sent a junior doctor. The follow-up was good tooanswered my calls when I was worried about the incision. I'm back to normal now, and the whole process felt managed, not rushed.
Saw Dr. Varalakshmi for a bad sinus infection. Got an appointment same day I called, which was great. She was direct, listened to what was going on, and gave me a prescription that actually worked. No fuss, got the job done. Parking at Medicover was a pain, but the doc herself was efficient.
I went in for what I thought was just fatigue. Felt run down for weeks. Dr. Varalakshmi didn't just brush it off. She asked a ton of questionsabout my sleep, my diet, even my work stress. Ordered some blood tests that I had done right there at the hospital. Turns out my iron was really low. She explained it all in a way that made sense, drew a little diagram on the notepad about iron absorption. Started the supplements she suggested, and I feel like a different person now. She actually looked for the cause instead of just treating a symptom.
At my age, one worries about being a bother. Dr. Varalakshmi was different. She listened to my old complaints without rushing, and explained everything in such a clear, gentle way. The hospital itself is quite large, and I did get a bit turned around finding the department, but the staff were helpful. I left feeling understood and, for the first time in a while, properly cared for.
Had a persistent stomach issue. Went to Medicover. Dr. Varalakshmi KS diagnosed it quickly, ordered the right tests, and prescribed medication. It worked. Follow-up was straightforward. No fuss, effective treatment.
I was quite anxious about my check-up, as I'm not very good with hospitals. Dr. Varalakshmi has such a calm manner; she made me feel at ease immediately. She took the time to answer all my quiet questions and never made me feel silly for asking. The whole experience was much kinder than I had prepared myself for.
