I've been seeing Dr. Sushma for my hypertension for over eight years now. She remembers my history, asks about my family, and never rushes the appointment. The clinic can get busy, and sometimes you wait a bit, but I don't mind. It's because she gives everyone that same time. She adjusted my medication slowly over the years, and my numbers have been stable for ages. That kind of steady, careful management is hard to find. I trust her completely.
Had a persistent cough for weeks. Went to Dr. Sushma Bhatnagar at Apollo. She listened, checked me thoroughly, ordered the right tests. Diagnosis was clear, treatment worked. No fuss, no unnecessary prescriptions. Parking at the hospital is always a challenge, but the consultation itself was efficient and effective. I'm better now.
I was quite nervous about some ongoing stomach issues. Dr. Bhatnagar has such a calm way about her. She explained everything in a quiet, clear voice and made sure I understood each step. She didn't dismiss my worries, even the small ones. The whole process felt gentle, and I left feeling much more at ease than when I arrived. Her kindness meant a great deal.
Finally got to the bottom of my fatigue! Saw Dr. Sushma after my old doctor retired. She was brilliant—asked all the right questions I hadn't even thought to mention. Ran a couple of tests and found a vitamin deficiency I didn't know I had. Started on supplements and wow, what a difference! I have my energy back. So glad I found her.
