Patient Experience
My 8-year-old son had a high fever that just wouldn't break, and I was really scared. Dr. Akula at Medicover saw us right away, even though the waiting area was packed. He didn't just talk to me; he got down on my son's level, explained everything in a way a kid could understand, and even made him laugh about the thermometer. He called the next morning to check on him personally. That kind of care for a worried mom and a sick kid means more than I can say.
I've always been terrified of doctors, so putting off a check-up for years probably wasn't smart. My hands were actually shaking in the waiting room. Dr. Akula was just... calm. He listened to my whole rambling history without interrupting, explained what he was doing during the exam before he did it, and never made me feel silly for being nervous. Left feeling like a weight was off my shoulders, honestly. He's good with anxious people.
Had a stubborn stomach issue for weeks. Went to Dr. Akula. He figured it out fast, gave me a clear plan. No fuss. Fixed it. Parking at Medicover is a nightmare, though.
It started with just feeling run-down all the time. I'd drag myself through work, sleep all weekend, and still be exhausted. My wife finally made the appointment. I'll admit, I expected a quick once-over and some generic advice. Dr. Akula was different. He asked questions I hadn't even thought aboutmy sleep patterns, stress at work, everything. He ordered specific tests instead of guessing. When the results came back showing a vitamin deficiency and mild thyroid issue, he sat with me and mapped out a simple treatment plan, drawing little diagrams on a notepad. It wasn't magic; it was just good, thorough doctoring. I've been following his advice for two months now, and the difference is night and day. I have my energy back.
