Patient Experience
My 8-year-old son had been complaining of stomach pain for weeks. We were so worried. Dr. Shivakumar at Apollo BGS didn't just look at the charts; he got down on my son's level, talked to him about his school and his friends, and made him laugh. He explained everything to us in a way that made sense, and his plan was so gentle. The waiting area was packed, but once we were in his room, he gave us all the time we needed. Seeing my boy smile again meant everything.
Had a persistent fever and fatigue. Went to Apollo BGS. Saw Dr. Shivakumar Basavaradder. He was clear, asked direct questions, and ordered the right tests. Explained the diagnosis (a viral thing) and the treatment simply. No fluff. Got better in a few days. Good experience.
I was quite anxious about some recurring health issues and visited Dr. Shivakumar. From the start, his manner was very calm. He listened without rushing me, even when I repeated myself. He spoke softly and carefully outlined each step. The hospital is big and can feel overwhelming, but in his consultation room, I felt heard and safe. I'm feeling much better now, and I'm truly grateful for his kind attention.
Wow, what a difference! I'd been dealing with this nagging cough for over a month, and it was really getting me down. I saw Dr. Shivakumar, and he was fantastic—so thorough! He actually remembered a detail from my history I'd almost forgotten. He put together a new treatment, and within a week, I was breathing easy. Honestly, I walked out of Apollo BGS feeling like a huge weight was off my chest. So glad I went!
