Patient Experience
My 8-year-old son, Arjun, had been complaining of stomach pains for weeks. We were so worried, and honestly, a bit scared of what it could be. The waiting area at Apollo was busy, but when we finally saw Dr. Sivaram Krishna, he was so calm. He didn't just talk to me; he got down to Arjun's level, asked him about his favorite cartoons, and made him laugh. He explained everything in a way we both could understand—no confusing medical jargon. He took his time, ordered the right tests, and called us himself with the results. It turned out to be something manageable, but the way he handled my scared little boy... that meant more than anything. We felt truly looked after.
Had a persistent fever and fatigue. Went to Apollo Kakinada. Saw Dr. Sivaram Krishna. He listened, asked clear questions, examined me thoroughly. Ordered specific blood work. Diagnosis was quick and accurate—a bacterial infection. Prescribed a course of antibiotics. Followed up in two days. Fever broke. Energy returned. No fuss, no drama. Effective care. Would see him again.
I was quite anxious about my check-up, as I’m not very good with hospitals. Dr. Krishna has such a gentle way about him. He didn’t rush me, even though I know he must be very busy. He let me explain all my little worries, and he addressed each one quietly and without making me feel silly. He has a very kind smile. The parking lot was quite full that day, and I’d worked myself up, but his manner just put me at ease. He’s a very good doctor, very thoughtful.
Wow, what a difference! I’d been dealing with this nagging cough for over a month, and it was really getting me down. My friend pushed me to go see Dr. Krishna. From the first minute, he was so engaged! He actually looked relieved when he figured out what it was—some allergy thing flaring up my asthma. His energy was contagious! He laid out this simple plan, got me a new inhaler, and bam, within three days I could breathe properly again. I’m telling everyone about him. Total relief!
