When my health was down for weeks with major viral infection and fever, I fortunately came across Dr.Shashidhar in Apollo clinic who was very patient in listening to my health issues, instilled confidence in me and provided the right treatment at right time. Under weekly monitoring, I was able to recover very soon. It was gods blessing for me to meet him. Infact, I am impressed about his patience, listening skills, and recommending perfect medication based on patient body conditions. My heart felt sincere thanks to the doctor.

I went to the doctor for a cough. The doctor didn't say much, but gave me a prescription and told me to take it for 4 days. If my cough doesn't improve, he told me to come back for a blood check that costs 9k.
Was prescribing cold medicine to son is already recovering from cold cough.Insisted on cough syrup .I i firmed i do t agree to cough syrup asked for herbal one and he wasannoyed**** *********** ******** *** ******* ***** **** *** *** ** **** ********When questioned him what he is prescribing was sounding angry & rude.I didn't appreciate that.Drs should be patient Paid 650 consultancy charge and now paid else where and got satisfactory treatment.
We booked the appointment and when we went to hospital, doctor was not available. We got a reply saying doctor is not available due to an emergency. Hospital staff didn't even bother to inform us in advance about doctor's unavailability. We had to travel a long distance to get to hospital and only then we came to know that doctor is not available. Extremely disappointed. At least they could have informed us in advance.

Did not even speak more than 5 words. Was more keen in providing "package" of tests in the clinic than listening to my ailments. I completed the course of medicine and was still suffering.
