Patient Experience
My visit to Dr. Acharyya was a great comfort. At my age, doctors can rush you, but he took his time, explained everything in simple terms, and made sure I was at ease. The hospital is large and a bit confusing to navigate, but his manner made the whole experience much less daunting. I left feeling properly looked after.
Had a minor procedure with Dr. Acharyya last month. The surgery itself went fine, but what really stood out was the aftercare. He called the next day to check on my pain levels and adjusted my meds over the phone, which saved me a trip. Recovery was smoother than I expected because he was so on top of it. Still a bit sore, but getting there.
Dr. Acharyya is good. Straight to the point, tells you what's wrong and what to do. No fluff. Had to wait a bit past my appointment time, but once I was in, he was efficient and clear. Fixed my issue.
I'd been putting off seeing a doctor for this nagging stomach pain for weeks, just nervous about the whole thing. Finally booked with Dr. Santanu Acharyya at Apollo. The waiting room was packed, which didn't help my anxiety. But when I got in, he just had this calm way about him. He listened to my whole rambling story, asked a few specific questions I hadn't even thought of, and sketched a little diagram on his notepad to show me what he thought was going on. It wasn't anything scary, and his plan made sense. Followed his advice, pain's gone. The guy just knows his stuff and makes you feel like you're in good hands.
I'd been to a couple of doctors about this constant fatigue and stomach pain, and everyone said it was just stress. Dr. Sanjoy Biswas was the first one who actually listened. He asked a lot of questions I hadn't been asked before and ordered some specific tests. Turns out it was a tricky thyroid issue that was messing with everything else. He explained it all on a notepad, drawing little diagrams. I'm on treatment now and finally feel like myself. He figured out what others missed.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was pretty nervous about the whole thing, even though everyone said it was routine. Dr. Biswas and his team at Apollo Kolkata made it so straightforward. The procedure itself was quick, and he checked in the next day, which I really didn't expect. The whole experience was just... calm. No drama, no fuss. Sometimes simple is good.
The clinic was running a bit behind that day, I remember waiting a while. But you know what? It didn't bother me much because the nurse at the front desk was so kind and kept me updated. The place itself at Apollo is clean and quiet, which helps when you're feeling anxious. By the time I saw Dr. Biswas, I was more relaxed than I thought I'd be. The whole team there just works well together.
What stuck with me most about Dr. Biswas was how he talked to my elderly father. My dad gets confused easily and is hard of hearing. The doctor didn't rush him. He sat down, looked right at him, and explained things in the simplest terms, without talking down to him. He made sure Dad understood each step before moving on. You could see my father's shoulders just drop—he felt safe. That kind of patience is rare.
I'd been to three other doctors for this constant fatigue and stomach pain. They all said it was stress. Dr. Suresh actually listened, asked a ton of questions I hadn't been asked before, and ordered a specific test the others hadn't. Turns out it was a tricky parasite. He explained it all with a diagram on his notepad. I'm finally on the mend after months of feeling awful.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Suresh made it so straightforward. The whole thing took maybe twenty minutes in his clinic room at Apollo. He talked me through each step, even cracked a silly joke about the local anesthetic. It was over before I knew it, and the healing was a breeze. Just a routine thing, but he made it feel easy.
The Apollo facility is nice, but what really stood out was the team. The front desk lady remembered my name on my second visit, which was a nice touch. The nurse who took my vitals was really kind when I mentioned I was anxious—she just had a calm way about her. Even the guy who brought the wheelchair when my leg was in a cast was cheerful. It felt like everyone was actually paying attention.
My dad, who's 78, was really scared about his check-up. Dr. Suresh has this way of talking to him—not down to him, but with real patience. He didn't rush. He asked about his garden to put him at ease. He explained the blood pressure medication in simple terms and wrote it down for him. It's the first time Dad left a doctor's appointment not confused. That means everything to our family.
My mom was admitted to Apollo Kolkata last month. Honestly, we were all pretty scared. Dr. Ganguly was the one who actually sat us down in the family room and drew a diagram on a notepad to explain what was happening with her blood pressure. He didn't just talk to us, he listened. He gave us his direct number for the night shift nurse, which meant we could actually sleep. That kind of clear communication took a huge weight off our shoulders.
I've been seeing Dr. Ganguly for my diabetes and general check-ups for almost eight years now. He remembers things. He'll ask about my knee from two visits ago, or if I finally took that trip to Darjeeling. It's not just about the prescriptions; it's that he knows my history and I trust his judgment completely. When my sugar levels spiked last year, he adjusted my meds slowly and carefully, explaining each step. You don't find that kind of consistent, thoughtful care everywhere.
Look, I needed a doctor to sort out some ongoing stomach issues. Friend recommended Dr. Ganguly. The wait at Apollo was a bit long, I won't lie. But once I got in, he was straight to the point. Asked the right questions, didn't waste my time. Ordered the necessary tests, explained them in plain Bengali. Got a clear plan by the end of the visit. Fixed me up. That's what I wanted.
It started with just feeling run-down all the time. I went to Dr. Ganguly as a new patient. The first thing he did was look over my old files from another city, really studying them. He noticed a pattern in my blood work over the years that everyone else had missed. He said, 'We need to look at this differently,' and ordered a specific thyroid panel. Turns out, it was a mild but chronic thyroid issue. The treatment was simple, but finding it wasn't. He called me himself with the results instead of having a secretary do it. I've felt like a new person for six months now.
My mother was admitted with a sudden, severe fever. We were all scared. Dr. Majumder came to see her late in the evening, after his rounds. He sat with us in the waiting area and explained everything in simple Bengali—what the tests showed, what the plan was, and what we should watch for at home. He didn't rush us, even though he looked tired. It made a world of difference to us, just knowing someone was clearly in charge and cared enough to talk to the family.
Had a bad stomach issue for weeks. Went to Dr. Majumder. He listened, asked direct questions, ordered the right tests. No fancy talk, just clear steps. Got the medicine, followed it, got better. The hospital is busy, had to wait a bit, but he was efficient. Fixed the problem. That's what matters.
My son had a high fever that wouldn't break. I was so worried. Dr. Bikash was so calm and gentle when he examined him. He spoke softly, told me exactly what to do, and reassured me that these things happen. He even called the next day to check in. It wasn't just medicine; it was the kindness that helped my boy get better faster. We're very grateful.
Honestly, I was nervous. New city, new doctor, and my blood pressure was all over the place. But Dr. Majumder? What a relief! He cracked a joke to settle me down, then got straight to business. Explained how my meds worked, why the new one was better, and drew a little diagram. I walked out feeling like I finally understood my own body. The parking lot was a nightmare, but hey, worth it for that kind of clarity!
