Dr. Afshan Shaikh Reviews

I'd been to three other doctors about this constant fatigue and stomach pain. Everyone said it was stress. Dr. Afshan Shaikh was the first one who actually sat and listened, really listened, to all the weird little symptoms I thought were unrelated. She ordered a specific test the others hadn't, and it turned out to be a tricky thyroid issue combined with a mild food intolerance. She explained it all on a diagram, and for the first time in a year, I felt like I had a real answer, not just a brush-off.

Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Shaikh made it feel like no big deal. The whole thing at Apollo Pune was so straightforward. In and out the same day. She talked me through each step as she was doing it, which kept me calm. The scar is barely there now. Sometimes the simple stuff is what shows you how good a doctor really is.

The parking at Apollo was a nightmare that day, completely full. I was flustered by the time I got to the clinic. But the front desk lady saw it on my face and was so kind, got me checked in quickly. The whole place just felt calm and clean. Even the nurse who took my vitals had a nice chat with me. It made waiting for my appointment with Dr. Shaikh a lot less stressful.

What I remember most is how Dr. Shaikh talks to you. She doesn't just look at the chart. She looks at you. When I was worried about some test results, she didn't just say 'don't worry.' She pulled up a chair, broke down what the numbers could mean, and what the next steps were. She has this quiet, direct way of explaining things that makes you feel like you're in capable hands, not just being processed.
