Patient Experience
Had my gallbladder out with Dr. Sanagar. The surgery itself was fine, but the first couple days after were rough. What really helped was how he and his team handled the pain meds. They didn't just give me a script and send me home; they called to check in, adjusted doses based on how I was feeling, and explained what was normal pain vs. what wasn't. The follow-up was good. Still sore, but managing it day by day.
Our 8-year-old, Rohan, had a high fever that wouldn't break and was complaining of terrible stomach pain. We were so scared. Dr. Sachin Sanagar at Apollo saw us quickly. He was so calm with Rohan, talking to him about cricket to get him to relax before the exam. He figured out it was a bad appendix and explained everything to us in simple terms, even drew a little picture. He held my hand when he told us Rohan needed surgery, and he came to check on him personally three times the next day. Rohan is home now, playing and eating, and we just feel so grateful we found a doctor who treated our son like his own.
Went to Dr. Sanagar for a persistent cough. He listened, didn't rush me, ordered the right tests. Got a diagnosis and treatment that worked. Parking at Apollo is always a nightmare, but the appointment itself was efficient. He's a good, straightforward doctor.
I'd been feeling run-down for months. Just tired, a bit achy, nothing specific. My usual doc retired, so I booked with Dr. Sachin Sanagar as a new patient. I was nervous—new hospital, new doctor. He spent the first appointment just talking. Asked about my work stress, my sleep, everything. He said, 'Let's not guess, let's map it out,' and ordered a very specific set of blood tests. Turns out, my vitamin D and B12 were in the basement. No mystery illness, just a deficiency. Started on supplements, and within a few weeks, the fog lifted. What I liked was he didn't jump to conclusions or order every test under the sun. He was methodical, and it saved me a lot of worry. Simple fix, but he was the one who bothered to look properly.
