Patient Experience
Had my gallbladder out last month. The surgery itself went fine, but honestly, the first few days after were rough. Dr. Kamal Ahmad was really clear about what to expect pain-wise and had a solid plan. He didn't just throw pills at me; we talked about when to take what and how to taper off. The follow-up calls from his team checking in were a nice touch. Still sore sometimes, but I feel like I'm on the right track.
Needed a full physical and some persistent fatigue checked out. As someone who manages a tight schedule, I appreciated Dr. Ahmad's direct approach. He was efficient, ordered the necessary tests without fuss, and explained the results clearly. Got a practical plan to adjust my routine. No fluff, just what I needed.
Went to see Dr. Ahmad for a weird pain in my side that wouldn't go away. He's straightforward, which I like. Listened, poked around, asked good questions. Said it was probably muscular but ordered a scan to be sure. It was. Got some advice, pain's mostly gone. Would go back.
I was really nervous going into my hernia operation at Apollo. The waiting area was packed that morning, which didn't help. But from the moment Dr. Kamal Ahmad walked in, he just had this calm way about him. He drew a simple diagram on the pad to show me exactly what he was going to do, which made it less scary. After the surgery, he visited me in the room and his first question was about my pain level, not just the procedure. The nurses told me he's like that with everyone. It's been six weeks now, and the recovery has been smoother than I thought, though I still get tired easy. He made a stressful thing feel manageable.
