Patient Experience
I'd been to three different doctors for this persistent fatigue and low fever. They all said it was stress. Dr. Narasimhan was the first one who actually sat and listened to my whole history, even the parts I thought were irrelevant. He ordered a specific set of tests no one else had, and it turned out to be a tricky, low-grade infection that was hiding. He explained it in a way that finally made sense. I'm just relieved someone finally figured it out.
Had to get a minor cyst removed. Honestly, I was more nervous about the hospital experience than the procedure itself. But Dr. Narasimhan's team made it so straightforward. The whole thing, from check-in to walking out, took maybe two hours. The doctor himself did the procedure quickly, told me exactly what he was doing as he went, and the scar is barely noticeable now. It was just... easy.
The waiting area at Apollo was actually quite calm, which helped. My mom was with me and the front desk lady saw she was anxious and brought her some water. Even the nurse who took my vitals was really kind, cracking a small joke to lighten the mood. Dr. Narasimhan fit into that whole vibe—he wasn't rushed, even though I'm sure he was busy. It felt like a team effort, not just a doctor's appointment.
What stuck with me was how Dr. Narasimhan talks to you. He doesn't just look at the chart. He looks at you. When he explained my treatment plan, he drew a little diagram on his notepad, which was way more helpful than a bunch of medical jargon. He has this calm way of speaking that makes you feel like you're in capable hands, not just being processed.
