Patient Experience
My 8-year-old son, Arjun, had been complaining of stomach pains for weeks. We were so scared. The waiting area at Manipal was crowded, and I was nearly in tears by the time we got in. Dr. Souvik Ray Chowdhury... he just had this calm way about him. He got down on my son's level, asked him about his favorite cartoons, and made him laugh. He explained everything to me in simple terms, never making me feel silly for worrying. He figured it was a simple dietary thing, and he was right. Seeing my boy smile again meant everything.
Severe abdominal pain. Went to Manipal Hospital. Saw Dr. Souvik Ray Chowdhury. He listened, asked direct questions, ordered the right scans. Diagnosis was clear and quick. He explained the treatment plan without any fluff. Follow-up was efficient. Problem solved. Good doctor.
I was quite nervous about my persistent fever and weakness. The hospital is very big, and I did feel a bit lost at first. But Dr. Chowdhury was so kind. He spoke softly, gave me all the time I needed to explain. He didn't rush me at all. His diagnosis was careful, and the medicine he prescribed worked gently. I felt looked after, in a quiet way. I'm much better now, and I'm very grateful for his manner.
Wow, what a relief! I'd been putting off this check-up for ages, just dreading it. Parking was a nightmare, honestly. But meeting Dr. Souvik was the complete opposite of stressful. He's got this great energy friendly but totally professional. He cracked a joke that actually put me at ease, went through all my results on the screen with me, and answered every single one of my 'what if' questions. Walked out feeling like a weight was lifted. Seriously, 10/10!
