Patient Experience
I'd been to a couple of doctors for this weird fatigue and joint pain. Everyone said it was stress. Dr. Khaddar actually listened to the whole, messy story, asked questions no one else had, and ordered a specific test. Turns out it was something pretty rare. He explained it in a way that finally made sense, without making me feel stupid. The parking at Apollo was a nightmare that day, but honestly, it was worth the hassle to get some real answers.
Had to get a small cyst removed. I was nervous at first, but Dr. Khaddar made it simple. He walked me through exactly what would happen, the whole thing took maybe twenty minutes, and I was in and out. No drama, no fuss. The stitches healed up cleanly, just like he said they would. Sometimes you just want something straightforward, and that's exactly what it was.
The clinic was running a bit behind, which I expected. But what stood out was the nurse at Apollo. She could see I was anxious waiting and just came over, offered me some water, and had a normal chat about the weather. It was a small thing, but it really helped. When I saw Dr. Khaddar, he was just as calm and direct. The whole place felt efficient but not cold.
My kid was really scared about getting a check-up. Dr. Khaddar didn't just talk to me; he got down on my daughter's level and asked her about her school and her favorite cartoon. He let her hold the stethoscope. By the end, she was laughing. He has this quiet, patient way about him that puts you at ease. You can tell he's thinking about the person, not just the chart.
