Patient Experience
I'd been to a couple of doctors about this nagging stomach pain and fatigue, and everyone just said it was stress. Dr. Vidhate was different. He actually sat and listened to everything, even the small stuff I thought was irrelevant. He ordered a specific test the others hadn't, and it turned out to be a tricky parasite. He explained it all on a notepad, drawing the lifecycle. It wasn't just pills; he gave clear instructions on diet and follow-up. Finally, an answer.
Had to get a small cyst removed. Honestly, I was nervous about any surgery, even a minor one. The day of, the waiting room was packed and I had to wait a bit, which didn't help. But once I was in, Dr. Vidhate and his nurse were so calm. He talked me through each step as he did it, which really distracted me. It was over before I knew it. The stitches were neat, healing was straightforward. It was just a simple thing, but he made it feel that way.
The hospital itself is nice and clean. What stood out for me was the front desk staff and the nurses at Medicover Sangamner. My mother was admitted, and I was a bit of a worried mess. They were patient with all my questions, even the repetitive ones. One nurse, I think her name was Priya, helped me figure out the cafeteria and even found an extra pillow. It's those small kindnesses that make a tough time easier. Dr. Vidhate's team really supports him well.
You know how some doctors make you feel like you're on a conveyor belt? Dr. Vidhate isn't like that. He has this quiet way about him. When he came in for rounds after my appendix operation, he'd always pull up a chair, not just stand at the foot of the bed. He asked how I was sleeping and if the food was okay. It felt like he was talking to a person, not just a patient. That kind of care makes you feel safe when you're not at your best.
