Patient Experience
I hate going to the doctor, always have. Had this weird stomach pain for weeks and finally booked with Dr. Sable. I was so nervous in the waiting room. But he was just... calm. He listened to all my worries, didn't rush me, and explained things in a way that didn't make me feel stupid. Left with a clear plan and actually felt better just from talking to him.
Had a bad sinus thing that wouldn't quit. Saw Dr. Sable at Medicover. He was straight to the point, no fluff. Asked the right questions, checked what needed checking, gave me a prescription that actually worked. Parking at the hospital is always a pain, but the appointment itself was efficient and helpful.
It started with just feeling tired all the time. I mean, bone-deep tired. Went to Dr. Sable after my local clinic couldn't figure it out. He spent the whole appointment just asking questionsnot just about the fatigue, but about my sleep, my diet, even my work stress. Ordered specific tests others hadn't. Turns out it was a significant vitamin deficiency. The treatment was simple, but finding it wasn't. He didn't dismiss it as 'just stress.' I've got my energy back now. It felt like he was actually solving a puzzle, not just processing a patient.
I'd been to three other doctors about this constant fatigue and weird joint pain. Everyone said it was stress or just getting older. Dr. Mallick was the first one who actually listened to the whole timeline. He ordered a specific blood test the others hadn't, and it turned out to be something pretty rare. He sat with me and my wife and drew a diagram on his notepad to explain what was happening. Finally having a name for it, and a plan, was a huge relief.
Had to get a small cyst removed from my back. Honestly, I was nervous about the whole 'going under' thing. Dr. Mallick talked me through every single step before the day, even the anaesthesia part. On the day, the procedure itself was over before I knew it. Recovery was exactly as he said it would beno surprises, no drama. It just went like clockwork.
The hospital itself is nice and clean, but what stood out was the team. From the front desk people who helped me figure out my insurance paperwork without making me feel stupid, to the nurse who saw I was anxious in pre-op and just chatted with me about my dog until I calmed down. It felt like everyone was on the same page. Even the person who brought the food was really kind.
My teenage son had to see him, and he's at that age where he hates doctors and doesn't say a word. Dr. Mallick didn't just talk to me; he spoke directly to my son in a really normal, non-patronizing way. Cracked a silly joke about mobile games to break the ice. He made my kid feel like he was part of the conversation, not just a problem to be solved. That meant a lot.
I'd been to a couple of doctors for this nagging stomach pain that just wouldn't go away. Scans were clear, so they kept saying it was stress. Dr. Shantesh actually sat and listened to my whole history again, asked questions no one else had. He pieced together some old symptoms I'd forgotten about and suggested a different test. Turns out it was a rare type of infection. He figured it out when others didn't, and the treatment worked.
Had to get a small cyst removed from my back. Honestly, I was nervous about the whole thing. Dr. Kaushik explained everything in simple terms, how long it would take, what the scar might look like. The procedure itself was over before I knew it. He even called the next day to check if I was feeling alright. It was a simple thing, but it meant a lot.
The parking at Medicover was a nightmare that day, completely full. I was already stressed about my appointment. But once inside, the front desk lady was really patient helping me find my way. The whole place felt calm and clean, not like some hospitals. Even the nurse who took my vitals had a nice chat with me, which took my mind off things before seeing the doctor.
What I remember most is how Dr. Shantesh talks to you. I'm an older patient, and sometimes doctors rush. He didn't. He pulled up a chair, looked me in the eye, and explained my blood pressure situation like we were just having a conversation. He asked about my daily routine, not just my symptoms. Felt like he saw me as a person, not just a chart.
Appendicitis. Went to Medicover in a lot of pain. Dr. Nawade saw me quickly, confirmed it needed to come out, and scheduled surgery for that evening. No fuss. Explained the procedure in plain terms. The team was efficient. Follow-up was straightforward. I'm healed. He did what was needed.
My father was admitted with a bad fever and confusion. We were really scared. Dr. Shashank Nagendra took the time to sit with us in the waiting area, even though it was late. He explained everything in simple Marathi, what each test was for, and what the possible outcomes were. He didn't sugarcoat it, but he was calm. That meant more than anything. Because of his clear way of talking, we felt included, not just worried bystanders.
Went to Medicover for a persistent stomach issue. Dr. Nagendra was direct. He listened, asked specific questions, and laid out a clear plan: try this medication, adjust diet, come back in two weeks. No fluff. The parking was a hassle, but the appointment itself was efficient. He solved the problem. That's what I needed.
My little daughter had a severe allergic reaction. In the emergency room, everything was noise and panic. Dr. Nagendra had such a quiet, steady way about him. He spoke softly to her, then turned to me and my husband and said, 'We are going to take care of her. This is what we will do.' His gentle confidence cut right through our fear. We're so grateful for his kindness that day.
After weeks of feeling run down and getting nowhere with other doctors, I saw Dr. Nagendra. He actually looked at me, not just my file. He ordered the right tests and figured it outit was a thyroid thing. When he called with the results, I could hear the relief in his own voice! He was practically as happy as I was. Started treatment, and I feel like myself again. What a weight off!
At my age, you get used to doctors rushing you. Dr. Sharma was different. He took his time, explained everything in simple terms, and made sure I was comfortable. The hospital was clean and the staff were kind. I left feeling properly looked after, not just processed.
Needed a check-up that fit my schedule. Booked online, got a slot same week. Dr. Sharma was direct, asked the right questions, and ordered the necessary tests without any fuss. Got a clear diagnosis and a practical treatment plan. Efficient and effectiveexactly what I needed.
Honestly, I was nervous going in. Had this nagging pain for weeks. Dr. Sharma cut through the worry straight away. He listened, did a proper exam, and told me what it was (and wasn't). No sugar-coating, no unnecessary tests. Just solid, clear advice. Felt better just knowing what was up.
It started with just feeling run-down all the time. My wife finally pushed me to see someone. The waiting area at Medicover was busy, but once I got in, Dr. Sharma really listened. He asked about my work, my sleep, everything. He connected dots I didn't see and suggested some basic blood work. Turns out my vitamin levels were way off. Started the supplements he recommended, and after a few weeks, the constant fatigue lifted. It wasn't magic, just good, attentive medicine.
