Dr. Masood Habib

I'd been to three other doctors about this constant fatigue and weird joint pain. Everyone said it was stress or just getting older. Dr. Habib was different. He actually listened to my whole history, asked about a trip I'd taken years ago, and ordered a very specific test nobody else had. Turns out it was a tricky tick-borne thing. He explained it all with a diagram on his notepad. I'm on treatment now and finally starting to feel like myself. He figured out what others missed.

Had to get a colonoscopy, which honestly scared me more than it should have. The prep was the worst part, obviously. Dr. Habib's team walked me through every step, and the day of, he himself cracked a small joke about the gown fashion before the sedation. Woke up, it was done, he showed me the pictures saying everything looked clear. The whole thing was just... straightforward. Sometimes you just want a procedure to be boring, and this one was.

The Apollo waiting area was actually calm, which helped. My mom was with me and the nurse at the front desk, Riya I think, saw she was anxious and brought her a cup of tea without us even asking. Little things, you know? Dr. Habib was running a little behind, but his assistant came out to apologize and give an update. It didn't feel like we were just a number on a chart. The place runs smoothly, and people there seem to actually care.

Look, I'm a pretty nervous guy in hospitals. Dr. Habib has this very calm, direct way about him. He doesn't sugarcoat, but he also doesn't talk down to you. When he explained my high blood pressure, he didn't just hand me a pill. He asked about my job, my diet, and we made a real plan. He remembers small things from previous visits, asks about my kids. It feels like a conversation, not a consultation. That matters a lot.
