Patient Experience
Had my gallbladder out at Apollo Pune. Recovery was rough the first couple days, but Dr. Patil's team had a clear pain plan that actually worked. He checked on me every morning, adjusted meds when needed, and gave it to me straight about what to expect. Felt supported the whole time, which made a big difference.
As a project manager, I don't have time to be sick. Woke up with severe abdominal pain. Saw Dr. Sujay Patil at Apollo. He diagnosed appendicitis quickly, scheduled surgery for that afternoon. Efficient, clear, got me fixed. Back to work in 10 days.
Look, I was nervous. Never had surgery before. But Dr. Patil? Straight shooter. Explained everything in normal words, no sugar-coating. The actual procedure went fine, recovery was okay. He's a good doc. Parking at Apollo is a nightmare though.
It started as a dull ache I ignored for weeks. By the time I saw Dr. Patil, I was doubled over. He listened to my whole history, asked smart questions, and ordered the right scan. Turned out I needed my appendix out. What I remember most is how he came to see me after the surgery, late in the evening, just to say it went well and I was okay. That meant a lot. The nurses were great too. Still getting my strength back, but I'm on the mend.
