Dr. Karupothula Ravishankar

My father, who's 78, had a bad stomach issue that kept him up at night. We were worried it was something serious. Dr. Ravishankar saw him at Medicover. He didn't rush us. He explained everything in Telugu, which put my father at ease. He said it was likely an ulcer and laid out a simple plan. The medicine worked. My father sleeps through the night now. More than that, the doctor listened to all our family's questions. That meant a lot.

Took my wife in for what we thought was just a bad cough that wouldn't go away. The parking lot was packed, so I was a bit stressed by the time we got in. Dr. Ravishankar was calm. He checked her thoroughly, asked about her work stress, and figured it was more allergy-related than an infection. He was direct about what tests we needed and which we could skip. His approach saved us time and worry. She's much better after following his advice.

Our 10-year-old son had a high fever and was really lethargic. We were scared. Dr. Ravishankar had a very gentle way with him. He spoke softly, examined him without causing any fuss, and explained to us, the parents, exactly what was happening in simple terms. He told us what signs to watch for at home. It turned out to be a viral thing, but having a doctor who communicated so clearly with the family took a huge weight off our shoulders. We felt informed, not just processed.

Honestly, I was nervous. My mom needed a general check-up but hates hospitals. Dr. Ravishankar made it easy. He chatted with her about her garden first. He took his time. When he went over her reports, he pointed to the good numbers as well as the one we needed to work on. No scary talk, just clear facts and a plan. 'Eat more of this, walk a bit more, take this small tablet.' She actually left feeling good about it. That's a win for us.
