Patient Experience
I've been seeing Dr. Sharmil Kanna for my diabetes and blood pressure for over eight years now, since before he moved to Apollo. That's the thing—I followed him here. He remembers my history without always checking the file, which matters. The clinic can get busy and you might wait a bit, but he never rushes you out. He's the only doctor I trust to get the full picture.
My 7-year-old, Rohan, had a high fever that just wouldn't break, and I was panicking. We saw Dr. Kanna at Apollo. He got down on his level, talked to him about school, and made him laugh before even examining him. Explained everything to me in simple terms—what the fever was doing, why the specific medicine. He called the next day himself to check in. Seeing my boy bounce back so fast, I felt like I could breathe again.
Had a bad stomach thing last month. Went to Apollo, saw Dr. Kanna. Straight to the point, figured it out fast. Prescription worked. No fuss. Good experience.
It started as just a persistent cough I couldn't shake. My wife finally made me go. The Apollo waiting area was packed that morning, and I was nervous, thinking it might be something serious. Dr. Kanna listened to me list off my symptoms, asked a few specific questions about my work (I'm around wood dust), and then leaned back. "I think," he said, "we're looking at two separate, minor issues playing off each other, not one big scary one." He sketched it out on a notepad for me—how the post-nasal drip was irritating a mild allergy. Treated both, and he was right. It was such a relief to have someone connect dots instead of just reaching for the prescription pad.
