Patient Experience
I'd been to a couple of doctors about this constant fatigue and stomach pain, and everyone just said it was stress. Dr. Payel Dey Karmakar actually sat and listened, really listened, to all the weird little symptoms I thought were unrelated. She ordered some specific tests others hadn't, and it turned out to be a tricky thyroid issue affecting my gut. She explained it in a way that finally made sense. I'm on treatment now and feel like myself again.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was pretty nervous about the whole thing, even though everyone said it was routine. Dr. Karmakar walked me through exactly what would happen on the day, step by step. The procedure itself at Manipal was quick, and she checked in right after. Recovery was straightforward, just like she said it would be. It was a relief to have something go so smoothly.
The clinic was busy when I went for my dad's follow-up, and we did wait a bit. But what stood out was how the nurse at the front desk kept everyone updated and was really kind to the older patients. The place at Manipal Dhakuria feels clean and calm, which helps when you're anxious. Even the person who took the blood sample was great made my dad, who hates needles, laugh a little.
What I remember most is how Dr. Karmakar talked to my mother. Mom gets confused easily and asks the same question over and over. The doctor never showed a hint of impatience. She held her hand, made eye contact, and explained things in simple words until Mom understood. That kindness meant more to us than any medicine. You don't see that everywhere.
