Patient Experience
Needed an appendectomy. Dr. Sandeep Kudale at Apollo Mumbai did it. Procedure was straightforward. He explained the risks clearly, no sugarcoating. Surgery went fine. Pain was managed. Follow-up was scheduled. Got my discharge papers. Back to work now. Would recommend him.
I was quite nervous before my hernia operation. Dr. Kudale has a very calm way about him. He took the time to answer all my questions, even the silly ones, without making me feel rushed. The hospital was busy, but he made sure I was comfortable. His manner after the surgery was very gentle; he seemed to know I was feeling vulnerable. I’m healing well, and I’m so grateful for his kindness during a scary time.
Wow, what a relief! I’d been putting off dealing with this abdominal pain for months, terrified it was something serious. Went to see Dr. Kudale – he ordered some tests, sat me down, and said it was a fixable issue, nothing major. Just had the minor procedure yesterday and already feel a million times better. The man knows his stuff! The whole team at Apollo was great, but he was the star. So glad I finally went!
I'd been to three other doctors for this weird fatigue and joint pain. Everyone said it was stress or age. Dr. Zade actually listened, asked a ton of questions I hadn't been asked before, and ordered a specific blood test. Turns out it was something pretty rare. He explained it all with a diagram on his notepad—didn't rush me at all. Finally felt like someone connected the dots.
Had to get a cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Zade made it seem so straightforward. The whole thing was over in what felt like twenty minutes. He checked in the next day himself, just a quick call to see how the healing was going. It was a simple thing for him, I'm sure, but it meant a lot to me.
The Apollo waiting area was actually calm, which helped. The nurses were really kind, especially when I couldn't find my insurance papers and got flustered. One of them helped me sort it out without making me feel silly. By the time I saw Dr. Zade, I was a lot less anxious because the whole place just felt competent.
What I remember most is how he talked to my elderly mother. She gets confused easily. He didn't talk down to her or just address me. He sat at her eye level, spoke slowly, and repeated things until she nodded that she understood. That patience is something you don't see everywhere. It made all the difference for her trust in the treatment.
Been seeing Dr. Agarwal for my diabetes and blood pressure for almost 8 years now, since he was at his old clinic. Followed him to Apollo. That's the thing—you find a doctor who gets your whole history, who remembers that your mom had the same issue, and you stick with them. The hospital's huge and can feel impersonal, but walking into his room is different. He doesn't just read the file; he asks about my retirement, my garden. My numbers are the steadiest they've ever been. It's that consistency that keeps me coming back.
Had a severe stomach bug that wouldn't quit. Needed a doctor who could see me fast and get it sorted. Found Dr. Bharat Agarwal at Apollo. Got an appointment same day. He was direct, asked the right questions, ordered the necessary tests on the spot. Had a clear diagnosis and prescription within an hour. Back to work in two days. No fuss, just effective treatment. Exactly what I needed.
My wife made me go. Had this nagging cough for weeks. Dr. Agarwal? He's good. Listened, checked me over, didn't order a bunch of pointless scans. Said it was probably a stubborn post-viral thing but gave me something to help. It worked. Parking at Apollo is always a nightmare, though.
I was really nervous. Had these random dizzy spells for months, saw two other doctors who just shrugged. Friend recommended Dr. Agarwal. The Apollo main lobby is always chaotic, but his assistant was really calm. He spent the first ten minutes just letting me explain everything, all the weird little details—like how it only happened after lunch. He asked questions I hadn't even thought about, like my water intake and sleep schedule. He figured it might be linked to a mild blood sugar drop and some dehydration. Gave me a simple plan to try: eat smaller meals more often, drink more water, track it. It sounds too simple, but it’s been three weeks and no dizziness. He actually solved it by listening.
My daughter insisted I see someone about the persistent discomfort in my side. I must admit, I was hesitant at my age. Dr. Iyer was very kind. He didn't rush me, explained everything in simple terms, and made sure I understood the plan. The hospital itself is large and a bit overwhelming, but his manner put me at ease. I felt heard, which is not always the case.
Had a stubborn infection. Went to Apollo, saw Dr. Kapil Iyer. He diagnosed it quickly, prescribed a strong course of antibiotics. It cleared up in a week. No fuss, clear instructions. Follow-up was efficient. Parking at the hospital is always a challenge, but the appointment itself was straightforward.
I was quite worried before my consultation. I'm not one to speak up much. Dr. Iyer has a very calm way about him. He listened quietly to all my concerns, asked gentle questions, and never made me feel silly for being anxious. The treatment he suggested was effective, and I'm feeling much better now. I'm very grateful for his patience.
Finally got some answers! I'd been feeling run-down for months, saw a couple of other doctors who just shrugged. Dr. Iyer actually took the time to connect the dots. He ordered the right tests and figured it out. Started treatment last month and my energy is coming back. Honestly, what a relief to have someone really dig into the problem.
My father was admitted under Dr. Divya Jaya's care last month. I was really scared, but she took the time to explain everything to me and my brother in simple terms, not just medical jargon. She even called me directly with updates when I couldn't be at the hospital. It made a stressful time so much easier to handle. The parking at Apollo is always a nightmare, but knowing she was looking after him made the trips worth it.
Had my gallbladder removed with Dr. Kuckian. The surgery itself went fine, but honestly, the first two days after were rough. What stood out was how Dr. Jaya and her team managed the pain. They didn't just throw pills at me; they adjusted things based on how I was feeling each day. She checked on me personally every morning and actually listened when I said something hurt. Recovery wasn't fun, but I felt supported through the worst of it.
Saw Dr. Divya Jaya for a persistent stomach issue. Straight talker, which I appreciate. Didn't sugarcoat things, ordered the right tests, figured it out. Got me on a treatment plan that worked. No fuss, just good care.
I'd been feeling run-down for months, just off. My local GP kept saying it was stress. I finally booked an appointment with Dr. Jaya at Apollo. The wait in the lobby was longer than I'd hoped, but once I was in her office, she didn't rush. She asked questions about things I hadn't even thought were connected—my sleep, my energy levels in the afternoon, little things. She pieced it together like a detective and suggested a simple blood test the others had missed. Turns out, it was a vitamin deficiency. Started supplements, and within a few weeks, I felt like myself again. It was her attention to the whole story that made the difference.
Had a persistent stomach issue for weeks. Dr. Paode saw me at Apollo Mumbai, cut through the noise, ordered the right tests, and had a clear treatment plan in one visit. Back to work without missing a beat. Exactly what I needed.
