Our 8-year-old, Rohan, was running a high fever that wouldn't break, and we were terrified. Dr. Bhattacharya was so calm with him, explained everything in a way a scared kid could understand. He didn't just treat the fever; he made sure Rohan wasn't scared of doctors anymore. We left the hospital feeling like we had a partner, not just a prescription.

Look, I was skeptical. Felt run down for ages, saw a couple doctors who just shrugged. Went to Dr. Bhattacharya on a friend's push. He actually listened, ordered the right tests, figured it was a vitamin deficiency. Fixed it. Simple as that. Guy knows his stuff.

I'd been putting off a general check-up for years, always too busy. Finally went to Apollo, a bit nervous about what they'd find. Dr. Bhattacharya had this way of putting me at ease—asked about my work, my stress levels, not just my symptoms. The waiting area was packed, but he never seemed rushed during my consult. He connected some dots between my headaches, poor sleep, and diet I hadn't even considered. Left with a realistic plan, not just a scary lecture. Felt like he saw the whole picture.
