I went to this Doctor, she is very kind *** ****************I went for cleaning my ear, the charge was reasonable only, she took utmost care without any hurt I got cleaned my ear...I feel fine. Ofcourse the fee is reasonable because they do their duty....we spent lots of other lavish expenses....worth paying.

I had a disappointing experience with Dr. Vijayalakshmi at Apollo Medical Centre. I consulted her for severe throat pain, *** *** ********* ********** **** **** *** ** ****** *** *** *** **** ** **** Even after completing most of the course, my throat pain did not reduce. There was no improvement, which made me lose confidence in the treatment. I expected a more effective and thoughtful prescription from a senior doctor. Overall, not satisfied with the consultation or outcome.

The best advice i would give is, a life this doctor, not sure if it’s the instruction they have from the management or something, **** **** **** *** ** **** *** *** ***** *** ***** ** ***** * ****** ** ********** Went for a ear pain, first swipe was 650rs, then I meet the doctor, she takes a metal scale kind of thing to check my tongue and then throws it back in the tray without cleaning, next, she takes a piece of cotton in Scissors, then push’s it as far as it can reach, it hurt me badly, I though she was checking how far she can push the scissors inside. Then she creates a hurry and then says go get all this tests, 3 X-rays, blood test even though I told her that I had done last week and every thing was normal, the third test was blood sugar test. Now comes the shocker, she gave me tablets which costed 1200rs. I leave from there, try the tablets for 2 days, the pain In my ear increased. So I then decide to go to the **** doctor I know, ** ******* *** ************* *** *** ******** **** **** * **** **** ** **** ** ***** * ** **** ** **** ****** **** *** *** ******* * ***** ****** **** **** **** ******* **** ** ******** ** **** *** **** ** ** ******* ****** ** *** ** ***** *** ****** Please avoid this doctor. *** *** *** ******* ****** *** ** ***** I had Religare insurance Out patient card , they did not accept that, however they had a board which had religare In it.

She performed a basic ear cleaning that lasted no more than five minutes, but charged ₹ 1,500 for it. Throughout the visits, I was advised to undergo multiple tests, including:
CBC
Ear swab and culture
Ear cleaning
A scan for sinus issues

I went for ear wax removal and just for the removal she charged a total of 1650 rs, obviously too much, I had to wait for 1 hour, even after booking the appointment, I felt my time was not at all valued. The fees was taken even before the consultation, which is weird. Behavior of the doctor is not good, ***** **** * ****** ******** **** ***** luckily the wax was removed.
