Patient Experience
I've been seeing Dr. Vijayasarathy for my blood pressure for nearly eight years now, since he was at his old clinic. Followed him to Apollo. That's the thing—you don't stick with a GP that long unless you really trust their judgment. He remembers my history, asks about my family, and never rushes. He's just steady and reliable, which is what you want from your family doctor.
First time seeing a specialist and I was a complete wreck. Convinced I had something terrible. Dr. Vijayasarathy just listened, really listened, to all my probably-silly worries. He explained everything in simple terms, drew a little diagram on his notepad, and said 'We will figure this out together.' I walked out feeling like a weight was lifted. The tests came back clear, but I'm keeping him as my doctor.
Had a stubborn sinus thing. Went to Dr. Vijayasarathy. He fixed it. Straightforward guy, clear advice. What more do you need?
I went in for what I thought was just a bad stomach ache. The waiting room was packed, so I was there a while. Dr. Vijayasarathy, though, didn't seem rushed at all. He asked questions I didn't expect—about my job stress, my sleep. He pressed gently in a spot that made me wince and said, 'I don't think this is your stomach.' Sent me for a scan right then. Turns out it was a gallbladder issue. The way he connected dots I didn't even see... he caught it early. I had the surgery and he checked on me after. Felt like he was genuinely invested.
