Patient Experience
I'd been to a couple of doctors about my stomach issues, and everyone just said it was stress. Dr. Pavuluru Sreenivasa Rao actually listened. He asked questions about things no one else had, ordered some specific tests, and figured out it was a rare type of bacterial overgrowth. It wasn't a quick fix, but having a real answer after months of feeling awful made all the difference. He walked me through the treatment plan without rushing.
Had to get a small cyst removed from my back. Honestly, I was nervous about the whole thing. Dr. Rao made it simple. The procedure itself was over in what felt like ten minutes, and he talked to me the whole time, just normal chat, which really helped. The stitches were neat, healing was easy. It was exactly what you hope for with something routine—no drama, just done well.
My dad was admitted to Apollo Nellore, and the place was really busy. Parking was a nightmare that day. But once we got to the floor, the nurses at the station were so kind and helped us find his room. The whole ward felt calm and clean, which matters when you're worried. Dr. Rao's team coordinated everything smoothly, and you could tell they all worked well together.
What stood out with Dr. Rao was how he explained things. My reports had a lot of scary terms. He pulled out a notepad and drew a simple diagram of what was happening in my knee. Didn't talk down to me, just made it clear. He has this quiet, patient way about him that makes you feel like you're the only person he has to see that day, even though the waiting room was full.
