Patient Experience
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was pretty nervous about the whole thing. The day of, the parking lot at Manipal was packed, so I was a bit flustered getting in. But Dr. Mandal's team was so calm. The procedure itself was over before I knew it. He checked in the next day himself, just a quick call to see how the healing was going. It was such a simple thing, but it meant a lot.
My mom needed her regular check-up, and I was dreading the hospital run usually so chaotic. Manipal was different. The place actually felt calm, and the front desk people knew exactly where we needed to go. Dr. Mandal's nurse was really kind, helped my mom get comfortable, and even brought her some water without us asking. It made a stressful day much easier to handle.
What I remember most is how Dr. Mandal talks to you. He doesn't just look at the file; he looks at you. When my blood pressure was high, he didn't just hand me a pill. He asked about my job, my sleep, even what I eat for lunch. He felt more like a partner figuring this out with me than a distant expert. That kind of attention is rare.
I'd been to a couple of doctors about this constant fatigue and weird stomach pain. Everyone said it was stress. Dr. Maiti was the first one who actually listened and didn't just shrug. He ordered some specific tests I'd never had before and figured out it was a tricky thyroid issue combined with a mild food intolerance. He explained it all with a diagram on his notepad. Felt like someone finally turned the lights on.
Had to get a small cyst removed from my back. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but the whole thing was so straightforward. Dr. Maiti talked me through each step on the day, the actual procedure was quick, and the follow-up was simple. The parking lot was packed that morning, but once I was in, everything just flowed. It was exactly what you hope a routine visit will be.
The clinic at Manipal was busy, but it didn't feel chaotic. The front desk lady remembered my name when I came for my second appointment, which was a nice touch. The place is clean and calm. Even the person who took my blood samples was really gentle and chatted about the weather to distract me. It's the little things that make a difference when you're not feeling great.
What I liked most about Dr. Maiti is that he doesn't talk down to you. My dad, who's in his seventies, was really worried about his check-up results. Dr. Maiti sat with him, spoke clearly without using too much medical jargon, and actually asked him if he understood. He has this calm way about him that just puts you at ease. You feel like a person, not just a case.
Had my gallbladder out last month. The surgery itself went fine, but the first few days after were rough. Dr. Dutta was really clear about what pain to expect and which meds to take when. He didn't just throw pills at me; he explained how to step down the dosage as I got better. I still had to take it easy for a while, but knowing what was normal made the whole recovery less scary. The nurses at Manipal were great too.
I've been seeing Dr. Dutta for my hypertension for about five years now. What I appreciate is that he remembers me, remembers my numbers, and doesn't jump to change my medication unless there's a good reason. He's consistent. I trust his judgment because he explains the 'why' behind every little adjustment. In a city where doctors change hospitals every other year, having someone steady you can rely on is important.
Went to Dr. Dutta with a weird stomach thing that wouldn't go away. Parking at the hospital was a nightmare, FYI. He listened, didn't rush me, ran the right tests, and figured it out. Fixed me up. Straightforward guy, which I like. No nonsense.
My whole experience started with just feeling run-down for weeks. I was convinced it was nothing, but my wife made the appointment. I was a bit nervous sitting in the waiting room at Manipal hospitals just do that to me. Dr. Dutta had this calm way of asking questions that actually made me think. He picked up on a detail I'd forgotten to mention, ordered one specific test, and found the issue. It wasn't dramatic, but it needed handling. The follow-up call from his assistant to check on me was a nice touch. He just seems to pay attention to the whole picture, not just the chart.
My appointment with Dr. Debapi Roy was scheduled for 10:30, and I must say, the clinic was quite busy. I had to wait a bit, but it was no trouble. When I finally saw him, he was very kind. He listened carefully to my old complaints about my knee and explained everything in a way I could understand. He didn't rush me at all. The treatment plan he suggested is simple and seems to be helping. A very comfortable experience.
Had a persistent stomach issue. Went to Manipal, saw Dr. Debapi Roy. He asked clear questions, ordered the right tests, and diagnosed the problem quickly. Explained the cause and the medication plainly. Followed up as promised. Problem is resolved. Efficient and effective doctor.
I was quite nervous about seeing a new doctor, but Dr. Roy made me feel at ease. His manner is very gentle. He took his time during the consultation, which I truly appreciated. He answered all my quiet questions without making me feel like I was bothering him. The hospital itself is large and finding the department took a moment, but the care from Dr. Roy was thoughtful and personal.
Finally! After months of feeling run-down and getting nowhere, Dr. Debapi Roy figured it out. I walked into his office with a folder full of confusing test results from other places. He actually went through them all, connected the dots, and gave me a clear answer. Started treatment last week and I already feel like a different person. So glad I found him!
My mother was admitted with a high fever and confusion. We were all scared. Dr. Nayak came to see her late in the evening, after his rounds. He sat with us in the waiting area and drew a simple diagram on a notepad to explain what he thought was happening with her infection. He didn't rush us. He just talked, clearly and calmly. That moment, when he took the time to make us understand, meant more than any medicine. She's home now, and much better.
My husband had a stubborn stomach issue for months. Other doctors just prescribed pills. Dr. Nayak listened. Actually listened. He asked about his diet, his work stress, everything. His advice was straightforward: try this change, cut back on that, let's see. It wasn't magic, but it worked. Parking at Manipal is always a hassle, but for once, seeing a doctor felt worth the trouble.
I brought my young son in. He was terrified of doctors. Dr. Nayak didn't just talk to me; he crouched down to my boy's level and showed him the stethoscope, let him listen to his own heartbeat. He spoke so softly. He explained every little step before he did it. My son didn't cry once. That kind of gentleness, it's rare. We left feeling cared for, not just treated.
After my father's surgery, we had a million questions. Was the pain normal? When could he eat? Dr. Nayak gave us his direct number for the ward. He answered our calls, even the silly ones, without making us feel like a bother. He was just so... approachable. You don't expect that from a senior doctor. He turned a really anxious week into something we could manage. We're so relieved.
At my age, hospital visits can be quite unsettling. Dr. Sandeep Chakroborty at Manipal made me feel genuinely cared for. He explained my condition in simple terms, never rushed me, and his calm manner put me at ease. The whole experience was far less stressful than I had feared.
