Patient Experience
Had a persistent stomach issue. Went to Dr. Tumulu at Apollo Jubilee Hills. He ordered the right tests, diagnosed the problem quickly, and prescribed medication that worked. No fuss, clear instructions. Follow-up was efficient. Problem solved.
One doesn't always expect such kindness in a large hospital. Dr. Tumulu has a very gentle way about him. He took time with my elderly mother, speaking softly and making sure she understood each step. It wasn't just clinical; it felt caring. We are very grateful for his attention.
Finally! Someone who figured out what was going on with me. I'd been to two other doctors with this nagging fatigue and Dr. Tumulu actually connected the dots. His approach was so straightforward and he seemed genuinely pleased when the treatment plan started working. I have my energy back! 10/10, would definitely recommend him to anyone feeling stuck.
I'd been to a couple of doctors about this nagging fatigue and stomach issue, and everyone just said it was stress. Dr. Varada Rao actually sat and listened, really listened, for a long time. He ordered some specific tests others hadn't thought of, and it turned out to be a tricky thyroid problem combined with a mild food intolerance. He explained it all on a notepad, drawing little diagrams. It wasn't just one thing, and he was the only one who pieced it together.
Had to get a small cyst removed from my back. Honestly, I was nervous about the whole thing—needles and all that. Dr. Rao made it so simple. The procedure itself was over in what felt like ten minutes. He talked me through each step, and the nurse was great, just chatting about the weather to keep my mind off it. The follow-up was easy, and the scar is barely there now. It was just a very straightforward, no-drama experience.
The Apollo facility is huge, and I got a bit lost finding the clinic. Parking was a bit of a hunt, I won't lie. But once I got to the right floor, the receptionist saw I was flustered and was really kind about it. The whole area felt calm and clean. Even the person who took my blood pressure was gentle and quick. It made a long wait for my check-up with Dr. Rao much less stressful than I expected.
What stuck with me about Dr. Rao was how he talks to you. He doesn't rush. When I was worried about some test results, he didn't just rattle off numbers; he asked me what I was most concerned about and addressed that directly. He has a quiet, steady way about him that makes you feel like you're the only patient he has that day. You leave feeling heard, not just processed.
I'd been to a couple of doctors for this nagging fatigue and pain, and everyone had a different theory. Honestly, I was starting to think it was all in my head. Dr. Koka Ram Babu listened to the whole confusing history, asked some really specific questions I hadn't been asked before, and ordered one particular test. Turns out it was a rare autoimmune thing. He explained it in plain terms, didn't rush me, and laid out a clear plan. I finally feel like I'm getting somewhere.
Had to get a colonoscopy, which nobody looks forward to. The prep was the worst part, as expected. On the day, at Apollo, things moved along fine. Dr. Babu was quick and efficient during the procedure itself—I was in and out before I knew it. Got the all-clear later, which was a huge relief. It was just a routine check, but it's good to have it done and over with by someone who knows what they're doing.
The Apollo Health City campus is huge; I got a bit lost finding the right building. Once I got to the clinic, though, the front desk lady saw I was flustered and helped me out with a smile. The whole place felt calm and clean, which helped settle my nerves. Even the nurse who took my vitals was really gentle and chatted with me to pass the time. It made the whole visit less stressful.
What I really liked about Dr. Babu was how normal he made me feel. I was nervous at first, but he just sat and talked with me like a person, not just a chart. He cracked a small joke about my hometown, which was unexpected. When he explained my treatment, he checked a few times to make sure I understood, and he didn't seem annoyed by my questions. You can tell he actually cares about how you're feeling.
I'd been to a couple of doctors for this nagging abdominal pain, and everyone said it was just stress. Dr. Pratap Rath actually listened to the whole history, asked questions no one else had, and ordered a specific scan. Turns out it was a rare type of intestinal adhesion. The way he explained it, drawing a little diagram on his notepad, made a scary situation feel manageable. He got me scheduled for surgery at Apollo quickly, and I'm finally pain-free.
Had to get a small cyst removed from my back. Honestly, I was nervous about the local anesthesia more than anything. Dr. Rath's team at Apollo was great—they talked me through each step, and the doctor himself kept checking in during the procedure, making casual conversation to distract me. It was over before I knew it. The follow-up was straightforward, and the scar is healing really cleanly. Just a smooth, simple experience.
The parking at Apollo Health City was a nightmare that day, completely full, so I was already flustered when I got in. But the front desk staff helped me sort my pass, and the nurse in Dr. Rath's section was really kind. She could see I was anxious and offered me some water while I waited a bit past my slot. The whole place feels calm and clean, which helps. By the time I saw the doctor, I'd settled down.
What stood out with Dr. Rath was how he talked *with* me, not at me. I'm an older patient, and sometimes doctors rush. He sat down, asked about my life, not just my symptoms. When he suggested a new medication, he took the time to explain why, what to watch for, and even wrote down the name in big letters for me. He has a quiet, patient way about him that makes you feel like you're his only concern that day.
I'd been to a couple of doctors for this nagging pain and fatigue, and everyone just said it was stress. Dr. Reddy actually listened, like, really listened to all the weird little details I thought were irrelevant. He ordered some specific tests others hadn't, and it turned out to be something pretty uncommon. He explained it all without making me feel stupid, and we had a real plan by the end of that visit. Felt like a huge weight was off.
Had to get a minor cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Reddy made it so straightforward. The whole thing was over in what felt like minutes. He talked me through each step as he was doing it, which kept my mind off things. The follow-up was easy, and the scar is barely noticeable now. Just a smooth experience from start to finish.
The Apollo facility is nice, sure, but what stood out was the team. The front desk remembered my name when I came back, and the nurse who took my vitals was really kind—she could tell I was anxious and just chatted about normal stuff to distract me. Even when the parking was full and I was running late, they were cool about it. It felt like people there actually care, not just process patients.
What I liked most about Dr. Reddy is he doesn't rush you. He sits down, looks you in the eye, and asks how you're *really* doing. When I was worried about some medication side effects, he didn't dismiss it; he took the time to explain why it might be happening and we adjusted things. You leave his room feeling heard, not just diagnosed.
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.
