Patient Experience
Had my gallbladder out last Tuesday. The first couple days were rough, I won't lie. But Dr. Chowdhury's team had a clear plan for the pain. They didn't just throw pills at me; they explained what to expect each day. I'm moving around much better now, and the incision looks clean. He checked on me every morning, even on the weekend. It felt managed, not just endured.
Appendicitis. Came to Manipal in a lot of pain. Dr. Chowdhury saw me quickly, confirmed it needed to come out, and explained the laparoscopic procedure. Surgery went fine. Post-op, the nurses were on top of the meds schedule. He was direct about the recovery timeline said I'd be sore for a week, and he was right. Back to my desk job in ten days. No fuss, good result.
I was so nervous before my hernia operation. Dr. Chowdhury has a very calm way about him. He sat and drew a little picture to show me what he was going to do. Afterward, he was very gentle when checking the bandages. The parking here is always full, but once inside, I felt cared for. My recovery has been steady. He remembered my name each visit, which meant a lot.
Wow, what a difference! I'd been putting off this surgery for years because I was scared. From the first consult, Dr. Chowdhury cut through the anxiety with facts. The actual hospital stay at Manipal was smooth. Now, three weeks out, the constant pain I lived with is just... gone. I can pick up my toddler again without wincing. I feel like I got my life back. He and his team are fantastic.
