Patient Experience
I'd been to three different doctors for this nagging fatigue and joint pain, everyone said it was just stress. Dr. Yewale was the first one who actually sat and listened to my whole history. He ordered a specific set of tests no one else had thought of, and it turned out to be something pretty rare. He explained it to me in plain English, drew a little diagram on his notepad. Honestly, I think he just saved me years of feeling miserable.
Had to get a minor cyst removed. Was nervous at first, but Dr. Yewale made the whole thing feel like a non-event. The procedure itself was over in what felt like ten minutes. He chatted about cricket while he worked, which was a good distraction. Recovery was exactly as he said it would be—no surprises. Sometimes you just want things to be straightforward, and this was.
The parking at Apollo was a nightmare that day, completely full. I was flustered by the time I got to the clinic. But the receptionist saw I was stressed and got me checked in really quickly. The whole place just felt calm, you know? Even the nurse who took my vitals was really gentle. It made waiting to see the doctor a lot less stressful.
What I remember most is how he talked to my elderly mother. She was scared about a new medication. Dr. Yewale didn't just rattle off side effects; he pulled his chair right up to her, looked her in the eye, and said, 'Let's talk about what's actually worrying you.' He answered every single one of her questions, even the silly ones, without making her feel rushed. That kind of patience is rare.
I'd been feeling run down for months, and my local doctor just kept saying it was stress. Dr. Velhal was different. He actually listened to every little symptom I mentioned, even the weird ones I thought were nothing. He ordered a specific test my previous doctor hadn't, and it turned out to be a thyroid issue that wasn't showing up on standard panels. It wasn't a quick fix, but having a real answer and a clear plan made all the difference.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Velhal explained the whole thing in simple terms—what he'd do, how long it would take, what the scar might look like. The procedure itself was over before I knew it. The follow-up was just as straightforward. Sometimes you just want something simple to stay simple, and it did.
The parking at Apollo was a nightmare that day, I won't lie. But once I got inside, it helped. The receptionist saw I was flustered and was really kind. The nurse who took my vitals had a calm way about her that settled me down before I even saw the doctor. The place just felt organized, not chaotic, which matters when you're not feeling great.
What I remember most is how Dr. Velhal talked to my elderly mother. She gets confused easily. He didn't rush her. He sat down, looked her in the eye, and repeated things patiently until she nodded that she understood. He has a quiet, steady way about him that makes you feel like you're his only patient that day, even though you know he's busy.
Honestly, I was a bit of a mess before my appointment. I’d never seen a specialist before and my mind was racing with worst-case scenarios. The waiting area was busy and I had to wait a bit, which didn’t help. But Dr. Amruth Raj was so calm. He didn’t rush me, let me explain everything, and answered my questions in a way that actually made sense. He just had this way of making it all feel manageable. I walked out feeling like I could breathe again, which is all I really wanted.
Had a persistent stomach issue for weeks. Went to Apollo, saw Dr. Amruth Raj. He listened, asked clear questions, ordered the right tests. Diagnosis was straightforward, treatment plan is simple. Follow-up was scheduled without hassle. Problem is resolving. Efficient and effective. Would recommend.
It’s always a little overwhelming going to a big hospital like Apollo. I was quite anxious about my check-up. Dr. Raj has such a gentle manner. He took his time, explained things in a very kind way, and made sure I understood each step. It felt like he genuinely cared, not just about the symptoms, but about how I was feeling. It made a difficult experience much easier to bear. A very good doctor.
After months of feeling run-down and getting nowhere, I finally got an appointment with Dr. Raj. What a difference! He actually figured out what was going on. The whole process at Apollo was smooth, and Dr. Raj was just so positive and clear. I finally have answers and a real plan. I feel like I’ve got my energy back already. So glad I went!
