Patient Experience
Had to get a minor cyst removed. Honestly, I was more nervous about the hospital experience than the procedure itself. But with Dr. Sharmila, it was all very straightforward. She explained each step in the clinic, and the day of, it was over before I knew it. Recovery was exactly as she said it would be—no surprises. Sometimes simple and smooth is exactly what you need.
The Apollo facility is nice, sure, but what really stood out was her team. The front desk remembered my name on my second visit, which was a nice touch. Her assistant was really patient when I was filling out forms and even helped me find a quieter spot to wait because the main area was a bit busy that day. It felt like people there actually wanted to help, not just process you.
Look, I don't really like hospitals. I get anxious. But Dr. Sharmila has this calm way about her. She doesn't rush you. When I was explaining my symptoms, she just put her pen down and listened. She asks questions that make you think, and she never makes you feel silly for being worried. That kind of patience is rare, and it makes all the difference when you're not feeling well.
Our 8-year-old son had been having these awful stomach pains for weeks. We were so scared. Dr. Raghu was the first doctor who actually got down on his level, talked to him like a person, and didn't just talk to us. He figured out it was a food intolerance, not something scarier, and walked us through the whole diet change. The clinic was busy and we waited a bit, but he never rushed us once we were in the room. We left feeling like we finally had a plan and someone who cared.
Had a persistent cough that was wrecking my sleep and focus at work. Saw Dr. Raghu D K at Apollo. Quick, clear diagnosis (post-viral thing), got a prescription that actually worked. In and out efficiently. Exactly what I needed.
Look, I hate going to the doctor. But I'd had this weird fatigue for a month. Went to see Dr. Raghu. He listened, ran the right tests, turned out my iron was just really low. Simple fix. He's straightforward, no nonsense. Parking at Apollo is always a nightmare, but the appointment itself was good.
I went to Dr. Raghu for what I thought was just a bad cold that wouldn't quit. I was tired of feeling run down. He has this calm way about him—asked me not just about the cough, but about my sleep, stress at work, everything. He remembered a minor surgery I'd mentioned years ago and asked if anything had felt different since. That detail helped him connect the dots to a mild thyroid issue the cold had just made worse. The treatment was simple, but it was his way of putting the whole puzzle together that impressed me. I feel like myself again.
Had a bad stomach bug that wouldn't quit. Got a same-day appointment with Dr. Vemula at Apollo. He was direct, figured it out fast, and the meds worked. Exactly what I needed—no fuss, just fixed it so I could get back to work.
I've been seeing Dr. Vemula for my blood pressure for over eight years now. He remembers my history, asks about my family, and never rushes me. When my readings spiked last month, he adjusted my treatment calmly without overreacting. That consistency is why I keep coming back; I trust his judgment completely.
Look, I hate doctors. But I was feeling run down for weeks. Friend recommended Dr. Vemula. Went in, told him my symptoms. He listened, ran the right tests, explained it in plain English. Got a diagnosis and a plan. No nonsense. He's good.
I was really nervous going in—first major illness since moving to Hyderabad. The Apollo complex is huge and I got a bit lost. But Dr. Vemula put me at ease immediately. He spent a solid 20 minutes just asking questions, not just about my fever and cough, but how I was settling in. He connected it to stress and a minor infection. Even followed up with a nurse call two days later to check on me. Felt like he genuinely cared about the whole picture, not just the chart.
I'd been to a couple of doctors about this nagging pain and fatigue, and everyone had a different theory. Honestly, I was getting pretty frustrated. Dr. Rahul Lath was different. He actually sat and listened to my whole history, asked questions the others hadn't, and ordered a specific test no one else had mentioned. It turned out to be something pretty uncommon. He explained it all clearly, without making me feel dumb, and we started a treatment plan that finally made sense. It was a relief to have someone actually figure it out.
Had to get a minor cyst removed. I was nervous at first, but Dr. Lath made the whole thing feel routine, in a good way. He told me exactly what he was going to do, step by step, during the procedure itself. It was over before I knew it. The follow-up was just a quick check-in. No drama, no fuss. Sometimes you just want things to be straightforward, and this was exactly that.
The Apollo facility is nice, sure, but what stood out was the team. The front desk remembered my name when I came back for a follow-up, which was a nice touch. The nurse who took my vitals saw I was a bit anxious and just chatted with me about the weather until I relaxed. It felt coordinated, like everyone from the receptionist to Dr. Lath's assistant was on the same page. It made the whole visit less stressful.
What I liked most about Dr. Lath is that he doesn't rush you. He walks in, sits down, and just talks. He asks how you're *really* doing. When I told him I was worried about some side effects, he didn't dismiss it; he took time to explain why they might happen and what we could do. He's got a calm way about him that makes you feel like you're in good hands, even when discussing the not-so-great stuff.
I've been seeing Dr. Rajesh Reddy for my blood pressure and general health for over eight years now. He remembers my history, asks about my family, and never rushes the appointment. The clinic can get busy and sometimes I wait a bit, but I don't mind. It's because he gives everyone that same time. I trust him completely; he's the first doctor I call for anything.
Had a stubborn skin rash for weeks. Went to Dr. Reddy. He looked at it, asked a few questions, prescribed a cream. Rash cleared up in four days. No fuss, no unnecessary tests. Parking at Apollo is always a hassle, but the appointment itself was efficient and solved the problem.
I was quite worried about some persistent stomach issues. Dr. Reddy listened so patiently to all my concerns, even the silly ones I was embarrassed to mention. His manner is very calm and he explains things in a way that doesn't make you more anxious. He ordered the right tests and outlined a clear plan. I left feeling heard and much lighter.
After months of feeling run-down and getting the runaround from other clinics, my wife insisted I see Dr. Reddy. What a difference! He connected the dots on symptoms I thought were separate. Started treatment and I feel like myself again. The energy is back! My whole family goes to him now.
My father was admitted under Dr. Pingle's care last month. Honestly, it was a scary time for all of us. What stood out was how Dr. Pingle would take the time to explain everything to me and my sister, not just in medical terms but in a way we could actually understand. He never made us feel rushed, even when we asked the same question twice. That kind of clear communication took a huge weight off our shoulders during a really difficult period.
