Dr. Nitin Vashistha

I'd been to three other doctors about this constant fatigue and stomach pain. They all said it was stress. Dr. Vashistha actually listened to the whole, messy story, asked about my family history, and ordered a specific test the others hadn't. Turns out it was a rare autoimmune thing. He explained it to me with a diagram on his notepad, and honestly, just having a name for it was half the battle. Starting treatment now, and I finally feel hopeful.

Had to get a colonoscopy, which everyone dreads, right? I was nervous, but the whole thing at Apollo was so straightforward. The prep instructions were clear, check-in was quick even though the place was busy, and the procedure itself was over before I knew it. Dr. Vashistha popped in after, showed me a couple of pictures saying everything looked perfectly normal, and that was that. It was a relief to have it done and out of the way without any drama.

My husband was admitted, and I spent a lot of time in that hospital. The woman at the front desk remembered my name by day two. The nurses on the floor were run off their feet but still found a minute to explain things. Even the cleaning staff would give a quiet smile. The place at Apollo just felt calm, not chaotic. It made a difficult week a little easier to bear, and Dr. Vashistha's team clearly works in a good environment.

What I liked about Dr. Vashistha is that he doesn't talk at you. He sat down, looked me in the eye, and asked 'What's bothering you the most today?' When I told him I was scared about the medication side effects, he didn't dismiss it. He said, 'Okay, let's talk about that fear first.' We spent ten minutes just on that. He feels like a person, not just a title in a white coat.
