Patient Experience
My 8-year-old son had a high fever that wouldn't break, and we were really scared. Dr. Chandra at Manipal was so calm with him, explaining everything in a way a kid could understand. He didn't just write a prescription; he sat with us and showed me on a chart what was likely happening. The wait was long that evening, but once we were in, he gave us all the time we needed. My son left feeling less frightened, and that meant everything.
Had a gallbladder removal last month. The surgery itself is one thing, but how you feel after is the real challenge. Dr. Chandra's plan for managing the pain was clear and actually worked. He checked on me the next day and adjusted things when I said one med was making me too groggy. It wasn't a magic fix recovery still hurts but I felt listened to and never like I was just being handed standard instructions.
Went to Dr. Chandra for a persistent stomach issue. He's direct, which I appreciate. Explained my options clearly, no fluff. Got the tests he suggested, they found the problem, treatment worked. Parking at Manipal is always a hassle, but the visit itself was efficient and helpful.
I'd been feeling run-down for months. My usual GP kept saying it was stress. I booked with Dr. Chandra on a friend's tip. First thing I noticed was he actually looked at me, not just his screen. He asked questions about things I hadn't thought were related my sleep, some minor joint aches. He connected dots my old doctor missed. Ordered specific blood work that finally showed the issue. It was a process, took a few weeks to get the full picture, but he stayed on it. I'm on a treatment plan now and finally starting to feel like myself again. It wasn't a quick fix, but it was proper detective work.
