Patient Experience
I was quite nervous about some recurring chest discomfort. Dr. Bhaba Nanda Das has a very calm way about him. He listened quietly, never rushed me. Explained everything in simple terms, said it was likely muscular but ordered an ECG for complete peace of mind. His gentle manner made a stressful visit much easier.
After moving to Delhi, I needed a new GP for my annual check-up. Chose Dr. Das at Apollo. The process was smooth, and he was thorough. Reviewed my history, suggested a couple of new screenings for my age. No fuss, very professional. Felt confident in his assessment. Will be going back.
I had a bad fever that wouldn't break. My local clinic was stumped. Went to Apollo and saw Dr. Das. He figured it out in one visit—was a specific bacterial thing. The right antibiotics and I was back on my feet in two days. So relieved! He really knows his stuff.
My mother was admitted with a bad fever and confusion. Dr. Ansari was the one who saw her. He called me directly after his rounds, explained everything in simple words about what might be going on, and laid out the plan. He didn't sugarcoat it, but he also made sure I understood each step. The hospital is big and can feel overwhelming, but he was a calm, steady presence. Mom is home now and doing much better.
My husband had severe abdominal pain. We went to Apollo's emergency, and Dr. Ansari was assigned. He was very direct. He quickly ordered the right scans, pinpointed the issue (it was a kidney stone), and explained the treatment options clearly. No fluff, just facts and a clear path forward. It was exactly what we needed in that stressful moment. The pain is managed now, and we're scheduled for the procedure.
My son, just 8 years old, was very sick. I was so scared. Dr. Ansari has a very gentle way of talking. He knelt down to my son's level, asked him about his favorite cartoon, and then explained to both of us what was happening in a soft voice. He checked in with me twice a day, even when the news was just that we were waiting. That kindness meant more than I can say. We left the hospital yesterday, and my boy is finally smiling again.
After weeks of feeling run-down and getting nowhere with other doctors, I saw Dr. Ansari. He actually listened—really listened—to everything I said. He connected dots others missed and ordered a specific blood test. Turns out, it was a vitamin deficiency! I was so relieved to finally have an answer that wasn't 'it's just stress.' The treatment is simple, and I already feel a difference. Finally, someone who took me seriously!
I've been seeing Dr. Gitanjali Kochar for my blood pressure for over eight years now. She remembers the little things, like asking about my son's graduation, and that makes a big difference. She's never rushed me, even when the clinic is busy. I trust her completely because she's consistent—if a treatment isn't working, she's honest and we adjust. That kind of steady care is hard to find.
As a senior citizen, one does worry about being a bother. Dr. Kochar put those fears to rest. She is very kind and explains everything in a clear, patient manner. The hospital is large, but her staff was helpful in guiding me. I left feeling understood and with a clear plan for my arthritis, which is a great comfort.
Had a weird stomach thing that wouldn't quit. Saw Dr. Kochar at Apollo. She was straight to the point, ordered the right tests, and fixed me up. No fluff, just good care. Would go back.
I was really nervous going in—first major health scare. The waiting area was packed, which didn't help. But Dr. Kochar just had a calm way about her. She listened to my whole rambling story, then walked me through what each blood test result actually meant, drawing little diagrams on her notepad. She didn't just give a prescription; she gave me a real understanding of what was happening. I walked out of Apollo that day with less fear and a clear head, which was exactly what I needed.
Had my gallbladder out last month. The first few days were rough, I won't lie. Dr. Sharma's team had a clear plan for the pain meds and told me exactly what to expect with each stage. It wasn't just 'take these pills,' they explained how to move, when to rest, what was normal soreness vs. a problem. Made getting through it a lot less scary.
My dad was admitted with a bad infection. We were all really worried, especially my mom. Dr. Sharma was the one who actually took the time to find us in the waiting area every single day. He'd pull up a chair, use plain language, and drew a little diagram on a napkin once to show what was happening. He never made us feel like we were bothering him with questions. That meant everything to us while Dad was in there.
Went to Dr. Sharma for a persistent stomach issue others brushed off. He listened, ordered the right tests, figured it out. Fixed it. Simple as that. Good doctor.
I've had this nagging knee pain for years. Saw a couple doctors who just said 'lose weight' and sent me on my way. At Apollo, the wait to see Dr. Sharma was long—I almost left. But when I got in, he was different. He had me show him exactly how I walked, asked about my old job in construction, and really pieced it together. He said, 'Look, the weight isn't helping, but the main issue is this old injury you never properly rested.' He gave me a realistic plan: some physio, specific exercises, and a timeline. No magic cure, just a straight-shooting path to getting better. Felt like he actually saw *me*, not just a chart.
I'd been to a couple of other doctors for months with this weird fatigue and stomach pain, and everyone just said it was stress. Dr. Khanna was the first one who actually sat and listened to my whole history. He ordered a specific test the others hadn't, and it turned out to be a pretty rare thyroid issue. It wasn't a quick fix, but having a name for it and a real plan made all the difference. He explained it in a way that finally made sense.
Had to get a minor cyst removed from my back. Honestly, I was more nervous about the hospital process than the procedure itself. Dr. Khanna's team had it all sorted. The whole thing, from check-in to walking out, took maybe two hours. The actual removal felt like nothing—just a bit of pressure and some chatting. I was back at my desk the next afternoon, barely thinking about it.
The place was busy, I won't lie. Parking was a bit of a hunt. But once I got inside, the front desk people were really calm and got me checked in fast. The nurse who took my vitals noticed I seemed anxious and just had a normal, reassuring chat about the weather while she worked. It's those little things that make a stressful visit feel more manageable. The whole floor felt clean and organized, which helped.
What I remember most is how Dr. Khanna talked to my elderly mother. She was confused and scared. He didn't just talk to me; he crouched down so he was at her eye level, spoke slowly, and held her hand while explaining her medication in simple terms. He had this quiet patience that you don't see often. It meant the world to her, and honestly, to me too.
My dad was admitted at Apollo Delhi last month. We were all really scared. Dr. Choudhury was the one who actually sat us down in the family room and explained everything in simple words—what was happening, what the next steps were, and what we could expect. He didn't just talk to the patient; he talked to us. That made a huge difference when we were feeling so helpless. He even gave me his direct number for updates.
