Patient Experience
I'd been to a couple of doctors for this nagging pain and fatigue, and everyone had a different theory. Honestly, I was starting to think it was all in my head. Dr. Parakh was different. He actually sat and listened to the whole confusing story, asked questions about things no one else had, and ordered a specific test the others hadn't. Turns out it was a thyroid issue that was mimicking other problems. He explained it in a way that finally made sense. It wasn't magic, it was just someone paying proper attention.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Nothing major, but I was pretty nervous about the whole thing. The procedure itself at Ashoka Medicover was straightforward. Dr. Parakh talked me through each step as he did it, which really helped. It was over before I knew it. The follow-up was simple, and the scar is barely there now. Sometimes you just want something to be simple, and this was.
The hospital itself is nice and calm, which helps when you're feeling anxious. But what really stood out was the front desk staff and the nurses. I was early and a bit flustered because parking was full, but the lady at reception was really patient and got me sorted. The nurse who took my vitals had a warm way about her and cracked a small joke that actually made me smile. It felt like a team effort, not just a transaction.
Look, I don't really like hospitals or doctors. Dr. Parakh gets that. He doesn't rush in with a clipboard; he comes in, sits down, and just talks. When my dad was admitted, he'd explain things to us without using confusing medical jargon, and he'd always look at my dad, not just the chart. He has this calm presence that makes a scary situation feel a bit more manageable. You feel like a person, not a case.
I was a total wreck before my appointment. First time seeing a doctor on my own, and my mind was racing with worst-case scenarios. Dr. Kakad just had this calm way about him. He listened to all my jumbled-up fears, explained things in a way that actually made sense, and by the end, I felt silly for being so scared. He just made it all feel normal.
Had my gallbladder out last week. The first couple days were rough, I won't lie. But Dr. Kakad's team had a clear plan for the pain, and he checked in himself to adjust things. It wasn't just 'take these pills'; he explained what to expect as I healed. I'm moving around much better now, and knowing what was coming next really helped me get through it.
Fixed my stubborn sinus issue. Dr. Kakad got straight to the point, no fluff. Prescription worked. Good experience.
My whole family came down with a nasty stomach bug. I was the last to get it, and by then I was exhausted from caring for everyone. Went to Ashoka Medicover feeling awful. The waiting area was busy, but once I got in, Dr. Kakad took his time. He asked about my family too, which was a nice touch. He figured out it was probably something we'd picked up from outside food and gave me meds that sorted me out in two days. Felt like he saw I was more than just the symptoms in front of him.
Had my gallbladder removed last week. The first couple days were rough, I won't lie. But Dr. Shendge had a clear plan for the pain meds that actually worked. He checked on me every morning at Ashoka Medicover, not just a quick glance, but really asking about the pain level and how I was moving. It made the recovery feel manageable, step by step. I'm home now and getting better each day.
Appendicitis. Went to Ashoka Medicover in a lot of pain. Dr. Swapnil Shendge saw me quickly, explained I needed surgery, and did it. No fuss. The nursing staff was good. Follow-up was clear. I'm fine now.
I was quite nervous about needing an operation. Dr. Shendge has a very calm way about him. He listened to all my worries before the procedure and explained everything in a quiet, simple manner. The hospital was busy, and I did wait a bit for my discharge papers, but his care was very consistent and gentle. I felt looked after.
Wow, what a relief! I'd been putting off dealing with a hernia for way too long. Finally saw Dr. Shendge at Ashoka Medicover. From the first consult, he was so confident and clear. Surgery was smooth, and I was back on my feet faster than I thought! The whole team was great, but he really knows his stuff. So glad I went through with it!
My mother was admitted with a bad fever and confusion. We were all scared, honestly. Dr. Tanvi spoke to us every evening, explaining things in Marathi so my father could understand. She never rushed us, even when the ward was busy. She just made sure we knew what was happening. Mom is home now, much better.
Took my son in. He had a stomach ache that wouldn't go away. The parking lot was packed, and we had to wait a bit, which made him more anxious. But Dr. Gugale was so calm with him. She asked him questions directly, not just me, and figured out it was a simple thing. Got the right medicine, and he was fine in two days. Really straightforward and kind.
After my husband's surgery elsewhere, he wasn't recovering well. We came to Ashoka Medicover feeling pretty lost. Dr. Tanvi Anil Gugale reviewed everything, sat us down, and laid out a clear plan. She called me herself with lab results. It was her quiet, sure way of handling it that took the panic out of the situation. We felt looked after.
Wow, what a difference! My aunt was seeing doctors for weeks for fatigue and no one had answers. Dr. Gugale actually listenedreally listenedto all the little symptoms we mentioned. She ordered specific tests others hadn't. Turned out to be a vitamin deficiency. Simple fix, but we needed someone to connect the dots. So relieved we found her.
I was so nervous going in, my first time seeing a doctor alone. Dr. Patil could tell right away. He just talked to me like a normal person, explained everything without making me feel stupid. I left feeling like I could actually handle this.
My 8-year-old had a high fever that wouldn't break, and we were really scared. Dr. Patil at Ashoka Medicover saw us quickly. He got down on my son's level, talked to him about his favorite cartoons while checking him over. He explained the medicine in a way my kid understood, not just to us. It made a scary night so much easier for our whole family.
Had a stubborn stomach issue. Saw Dr. Urvik Patil. He listened, didn't rush, gave clear advice. Fixed me up. Good doctor.
I'd been putting off a checkup for ages, just feeling run down. The parking at Ashoka was full, so I was already flustered when I got to Dr. Patil's office. He started by asking about my work and stress, not just my symptoms. We talked for a good while before any exam. He connected some dots I hadn'tturns out my sleep schedule and some minor diet things were the main culprits. His plan was simple, not a bunch of pills. It's been a month, and I actually feel like myself again.
