Patient Experience
I'd been to a couple of doctors about this constant fatigue and weird stomach pain. Everyone said it was just stress. Dr. Dilasa Chowdhury was the first one who actually listened. She ordered a specific test no one else had thought of, and it turned out to be a pretty rare vitamin absorption issue. It wasn't a quick fix, but she explained it all in a way I could finally understand and we have a real plan now. She just didn't give up.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Chowdhury made it so straightforward. The whole thing at Manipal was over in an hour. She talked me through each step as she was doing it, which really helped. Even the injection didn't hurt as much as I'd braced for. Went home, followed the simple aftercare sheet, and it healed up perfectly. It was just... easy.
Parking at the hospital was a nightmare that day, completely full. I was flustered by the time I got to the clinic. But the lady at the front desk was so calm and got me checked in quickly. The whole place felt clean and quiet, not chaotic. Even the nurse who took my vitals had a nice way about her. It made waiting a bit for my turn with Dr. Chowdhury much less stressful.
What I remember most is how she sat down. Other doctors always seem in a rush. Dr. Chowdhury pulled up a stool, looked right at me, and asked 'So, how are you really feeling?' about my mother's recovery. She didn't just talk about the medical stuff; she asked about how we were managing at home. She has this quiet, sure way of talking that just makes you feel safe. You know you're being heard.
