dr. ANUP BANERJEE

I'd been to a couple of doctors with this nagging stomach pain and fatigue, everyone said it was just stress. Dr. Anup Banerjee actually listened to the whole, messy story. He ordered a specific test the others hadn't, and it turned out to be something pretty rare. He sat with me and my wife, drew a diagram on his notepad to explain what was happening in a way we could actually understand. It was scary, but finally having a name for it and a clear plan made all the difference.

Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Banerjee made it seem like the most normal thing in the world. The whole thing at Manipal was over in what felt like an hour. He talked me through each step as he was doing it, which kept my mind off things. A bit sore afterwards, sure, but it healed up perfectly. Sometimes simple things done well are what you need.

The parking at Manipal was a nightmare that day, completely full, so I was already flustered when I got in. But the lady at the front desk was really kind and helped me sort it out. The whole place just felt calm, even though it was busy. By the time I saw Dr. Banerjee, I'd actually relaxed a bit. It's funny how a helpful person at the start can change your whole experience.

What I remember most is that he never seemed rushed. My mother is elderly and gets confused easily. Dr. Banerjee spoke directly to her, not just to me, and at her pace. He checked if she understood, repeated things without sounding impatient, and even cracked a little joke that made her smile. You can tell when someone genuinely cares about the person, not just the patient file in front of them.
