Patient Experience
I'd been feeling off for months, tired and achy, and my local GP just couldn't figure it out. I was getting really worried. At Manipal, Dr. Tripathy actually sat and listened to my whole history again. He ordered a specific test the others hadn't, and it turned out to be a rare thyroid issue. He explained it in a way that finally made sense, and the treatment plan is working. It was a relief to have someone really dig for an answer.
Had to get a small cyst removed from my back. Honestly, I was nervous about any surgery, even a minor one. Dr. Tripathy walked me through exactly what would happen, and the whole thing was over in what felt like minutes. The recovery was straightforward, just like he said it would be. No drama, no fuss. Sometimes simple and smooth is exactly what you need.
Parking at the hospital was a bit of a hassle that morning, I won't lie. But once I got inside, the place felt calm. The front desk lady saw I was looking lost and pointed me in the right direction. The nurses on the floor were really kind, even when they were busy. It made a long day of tests a lot less stressful.
What stuck with me about Dr. Tripathy was how he talked to my elderly father. He didn't just speak to me. He got down on my dad's level, made eye contact, and used simple words without sounding patronizing. You could see my dad relax. That kind of respect means more than any fancy medical term.
