Patient Experience
My dad was admitted with a bad fever and we were all really scared. Dr. Ravishankar was the one who actually sat us down in the waiting area and drew a diagram on a notepad to show us what was happening. He didn't just talk to the patient, he talked to US. He gave us his direct number and answered my mom's calls even at 8 PM. We left knowing exactly what to do, and that meant everything.
I've been seeing Dr. Kinjarapu for my blood pressure and general check-ups for about seven years now. What I appreciate is that he remembers me, remembers my history without having to dig through the file for five minutes first. His advice is always steady and practicalno jumping to extreme solutions, just consistent, solid care. When you have a long-term thing, you want someone who doesn't change their approach every visit. He's that doctor.
Had a nasty skin infection on my leg. Went to Medicover, saw Dr. Ravishankar. He checked it, prescribed meds, told me what to watch for. It cleared up in a week. Straightforward, no fuss. Parking at that place is always a nightmare, though.
So I went in for what I thought was just a really bad stomach ache. Felt silly, almost didn't go. Dr. Kinjarapu listened, then got quiet and asked a few more questions about the pain's location. He said he didn't like how it presented and wanted a scan 'to be sure.' I was annoyedmore cost, more time. But he was right. It was early appendicitis. He caught it before it burst. The whole thing, from me feeling silly in his office to waking up after surgery, felt like he connected dots no one else would have bothered with. He just paid a different kind of attention.
My mom was admitted for a stomach issue and we were all really worried. Dr. Ravishankar was the one who actually sat us down in the waiting area and explained everything in Telugu, step by step. He didn't just talk to us, he listened. He gave us his direct number and told us to call anytime, day or night, if we had more questions. That meant more than any medicine. Because of him, we felt like we were part of her care, not just bystanders.
Had my gallbladder out with Dr. Kinjarapu last month. Honestly, I was terrified of the pain after. But his team had a clear plan from the startwhat pills to take and when, how to move around safely. The first couple days were rough, I won't lie, but knowing what to expect made it bearable. He checked on me himself every morning, not just a quick glance, asking specifically about the pain level. I'm back to my normal routine now, and the recovery was smoother than I ever thought possible.
Saw Dr. Ravishankar for a bad fever and body ache that wouldn't go away. Got an appointment same day. He was straight to the point, asked the right questions, figured it was a viral thing. Prescribed some meds, told me to rest. It worked. No fuss, no unnecessary tests. Just good, clear doctoring.
I'd been putting off seeing someone about this nagging pain in my side for weeks. Finally went to Medicover, parking was a nightmare that day. Dr. Ravishankar walked in, and I remember thinking he looked younger than I expected. But he had this calm way about him. He didn't just poke my stomach and send me for a scan; he asked about my job (I drive a cab), my diet, everything. He connected the dots and said it was likely muscular, from sitting all day in a bad position. Gave me some stretches to do, not just pills. I was skeptical, but you know what? He was right. It's been two months now and the pain is gone. He saw the whole picture, not just the symptom.
I'd been to a couple of doctors for this nagging stomach pain and fatigue, and everyone just said it was stress. Dr. Ravishankar actually listened. He asked questions about things no one else had, ran some different tests, and figured out it was a tricky gallbladder issue that wasn't showing up on the usual scans. He explained it in a way that finally made sense. I felt heard for the first time in months.
Had to get a small cyst removed from my back. Honestly, I was nervous at first, but Dr. Kinjarapu made it so straightforward. The whole thing was over in what felt like minutes. He told me exactly what he was doing as he did it, and the recovery was just as simple as he said it would be. No fuss, no drama, just good, clean work.
Parking at Medicover was a bit of a hassle that morning, I won't lie. But once I got inside, it made a difference. The place was clean and calm. The front desk ladies helped me sort my papers without making me feel like a nuisance, and the nurse who took my vitals was really kind. It set a good tone before I even saw the doctor.
What stuck with me about Dr. Ravishankar was how he talked to my elderly father. He didn't just talk at him; he sat down, made eye contact, and used simple words. He checked if Dad understood each step. He has this calm, patient way about him that just puts you at ease. You don't feel like just another case.
