Patient Experience
My 14-year-old was having these awful stomach pains for weeks, and we'd seen two other doctors who just shrugged. Dr. Bhagat was the first one who actually sat down with my son, not just me, and talked to him like a person. He asked about school stress, friends, everything. He figured out it was anxiety, not a physical problem. The way he explained it to my kid, without making him feel silly, made all the difference. We're doing the exercises he suggested and things are so much better.
Had my gallbladder out last month. Honestly, I was terrified of the pain afterwards. Dr. Bhagat's team had a clear plan from the start—what meds, when to take them, what to expect each day. He called me himself the evening after surgery to check in. The first couple days were rough, no lie, but knowing what was normal and having a number to call (they actually answered) helped me not panic. Recovery wasn't fun, but I never felt like I was dealing with it alone.
Been seeing Dr. Bhagat for my blood pressure for a few years now. He's straight to the point, which I like. Listens, adjusts my meds if needed, tells me clearly what I need to do. No fluff. Parking at Apollo is always a nightmare, but once you're in his clinic, it's efficient.
I went in for what I thought was just a really bad flu. Felt awful for over a week. Dr. Bhagat, he's got this calm way about him. He did the usual check-up, but then he noticed my ankles were a bit puffy, which I hadn't. Asked a lot of questions about my water intake and energy levels. Long story short, he ran some extra tests and found a kidney issue that was starting. Nothing major yet, thankfully, because we caught it. It was scary, but he laid out the steps so clearly—diet changes, follow-up tests, the whole plan. Felt like he was solving a puzzle with me, not just writing a prescription.
