Patient Experience
I'd been to three other doctors about this constant fatigue and weird joint pain. Everyone just said it was stress or getting older. Dr. Agrawal actually sat and listened to every single symptom, even the ones I thought were silly. She ordered a specific set of blood tests the others hadn't, and it turned out to be something pretty rare. She explained it all with a diagram on her notepad—no fancy jargon, just clear facts. Finally having a name for it and a real plan was a massive relief.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was more nervous about the hospital experience than the procedure itself. But Dr. Agrawal's team had it down to a science. The nurse who prepped me cracked a joke that actually made me smile, and the whole thing was over in what felt like ten minutes. Follow-up was just a quick check-in call from her assistant. Sometimes simple things going right is all you need.
The parking at Apollo was a nightmare that day, completely full, which put me in a bad mood before my appointment. But walking into Dr. Agrawal's clinic area, it was surprisingly calm. The front desk lady remembered my name from my last visit a year ago, which was a nice touch. The whole place just felt efficient and clean without being cold. It made a stressful start to the day much better.
My teenage son had to see Dr. Agrawal, and he was in one of those moods where he wouldn't talk to anyone. I was braced for an awkward visit. But she didn't push him. She talked directly to him, not just to me, and asked about his soccer team first. She got him to open up about what was actually bothering him without it feeling like an interrogation. She has this way of making you feel like you're the only person in the room, even for just fifteen minutes.
