Horrible experiance with Apollo Hospital Bangalore
Jun 21, 2007 12:56 PM 5465 Views

Dialysis of My Father:


Technicians: Very Bad. They don't even know when put a correct dressing.


Surgeons: Don't want to visit them. AV Fistula for him was done on wrist inspite of the fact, doctor asked to do it on arm. Fistula did not work. They they asked to do a fistula on arm.


Dopler of the wrist in Apollo:~ Rs.1500/-


Outside: Doppler of both the arms:~ Rs. 1400/-


Doctors are also average.


The technicians / doctors / most of the people in the hospital are rude.


hospital is expensive and not meant for common people.


During dialysis no Blood pressure monitor was put and my Father fainted during dialysis, This could have led to his death on the dialysis unit.


Each dialysis costs Rs. 1350/- while outside you can get it done in Rs. 600/- only.


I would not recommend this hospital to anyone.


There any many more thigns which I want to tell y ou ablut this hospital but this forum is not the right place

Laughter is indeed the best medicine!

I had the honor of visiting Apollo Hospital last weekend, and would like to share with you the learning I received. I will dispense my advice now - If you fall sick on a Saturday and faint, be sure to call Apollo. You will get an appointment - for the very next day - the staff is very efficient.  When you get there the next day, dying and dehydrated, you'll realize that there is no Doctor around!


Fact 1: Vitamin D is good for healthNow before you start getting angry, we must remind you of the fact that Anger isn't good for your health - Vitamin D is. Understand that this was a ploy by the Hospital to make sure you get enough sun - for your own good. Vitamin D works better when the temperature's soaring.


Fact 2: Be nice to People on their way Up (Pun Intended)The receptionist will talk to you very patiently. She will graciously point to the Doctor's room even if there's no Doctor in sight. The rest of the staff is good at giving directions too - They can almost always tell you where you're going (the answer is usually - "Up").


Fact 3: Eating right is Important!Want to eat - try the sandwiches at the in-house cafe(?) - it'll help evacuate your bowels in no time.


Fact 4: Exercise is good for healthWell, why have elevators when we've got legs - climb up and down the stairs twice a day and voila! You're healthy as a rat! And talking of rats, please don't step on them!Fact 5: The Doc's always rightIf the Doc says you're constipated, you ARE. No questions asked, or answers entertained. When the Doc tells you you need to get another test done or should visit another doctor in XYZ deptt, do it! Never say no to your Doctor.


Fact 6: Paint contains whachumaycallit - and that's bad for OzoneWhich is why the walls haven't been painted since the revolt of 1857. We care for mother nature, and will do nothing to upset her, even if it means not mopping the floor immediately after someone throws up.


Fact 7: Retaining Customers is a Skill...... That I have never seen in any other place so far. All their customers have been there for a long time - like the Eagles would put it - "You can check out any time you like.. but you can never leave"!See how incredibly amazing their philosophy is? And if you don't believe said laughter is the best medicine, ask for some Ice-cream at their canteen - and listen to the guy say - "Ice Cream thanda nahin hai".


Good for those who have Mediclaim
Jun 02, 2005 11:38 AM 9674 Views

Apollo Hospital in Chennai has some 5-6 braches in the city. I had both good and bad experiences with the hospital.


Bad Experience


Sometime back I took my mother, who is a heart patient to Apollo main hospital on greams road for regular check up.


Day 1 -


So, we got her registered at the reception counter, and went to cardiology department. We had to wait for about 2 hours for seeing the concerned doctor, after which we were told that the doctor had gone for an emergency case and would be available only the next day. So, we came back home and went there again on next day.


Day 2 -


This time the wait time was about 1.5 hours after which the doctor saw my mother. Without commenting anything on her health and without prescribing any medication, he asked us to do some X-rays, blood tests and urine tests. I had to stand in a long queue to pay in advance for all these tests, for half an hour. It took us a full day to do the tests and some of the test results were made available to us only on next day.


Day 3 -


So, on day 3 we went again to the hospital and met the doctor with all the test reports (this time the waiting time was about one hour). After seeing all the reports, without commenting anything on her health and without prescribing any medication, he asked us to see a kidney specialist in the same hospital mentioning that he has a doubt that she might be required to be operated for her kidney. So, we went on another floor to see the kidney doctor and were told that due to heavy crowd, we can see him only on next day.


Day 4 -


On day 4 we went there again to see the kidney specialist. The waiting time was two hours again, after which finally we could see the doctor. After examination, the doctor commented (atleast someone in this hospital commented:)) that there is nothing wrong with her kidney and she is perfectly alright. But he gave a long list of tests to be done once again (they have a standard format for the tests in which they can tick as many as they want, this doctor ticked all of them) and asked us to bring the test reports.


By this time, I had already spent Rs.15000, for all the tests and fees of the doctors without getting any medical advise or prescription of the medicines. Had we gone to any other doctor in the city for this kind of regular check up, it would have costed us maximum of Rs.150-200 and 1-2 hours of time. Here we had spent 4 days and huge amount without any result. So we finally decided to do away with the hospital and approached other cardiologist in the city who did his job upto our satisfaction. Now, for last two years my mother is regularly visiting this cardiologist and we are quite happy with the services and she does not have any problems. My mother still gets horrified whenever she remembers her experience at Apollo hospital as an out patient.


Good Experience


I had an accident in which my left leg was fractured. I was taken to Apollo Speciality Hospital in Nandanam to the emergency section. X-ray revealed that its a multiple fracture and the leg needs to be operated and a steel plate to be fixed inside. The operation was supposed to be done next day.


The doctor in the emergency section was quite polite and he plastered my leg immediately to relieve me from pain. Then I was shifted to a private room. A senior doctor visited me late at night who was supposed to operate me the next day. After few check ups, I was operated the next day.


I had a mediclaim policy for which I had an indentity card. On presenting that card at the counter, I was provided the cash - less service at the hospital. I was not required to pay for anything except some minor deposit of Rs.5000.


During my 10 days of hospitalisation, I was quite impressed by the services of the hospital. The nurses and wardboys know their job very well and are polite enough - a kind of American culture runs throughout the hospital. Every morning, a dietician would visit me and ask me whether I am being able to digest the food comfortably and whether I have any preferences. Then I would be provided with a menu card for the day, in which I have to tick the menu for breakfast, lunch, tea and dinner and intermittent drinks and snacks. Food is good over there. After couple of days, a physiotherapist would visit every evening and make me walk with the walker/cruches.


The most important thing worth mentioning here is that the hospital has a dedicated cell for claiming the insurances, which takes care of getting all the approvals from the insurance agency. And perhaps with the rapo they have with the insurance agencies claims forwarded through them are approved within minutes!!! The entire hospitalisation cost including operation, room rentals, medicines, etc was about Rs.1 lakh and I was not requried to spent anything except some minor expenditure of few thousand.


I feel Apollo Hospital is ideal for those who have mediclaim policy. My friend had a tough time to get his mediclaim approved when he was admitted in some other hospital.


So, my conclusion is Apollo is good for in patients with mediclaim and troublesome for out patients.

Apollo Bangalore and Goa : Franchise not good
Jan 17, 2005 02:59 PM 5546 Views

Unforunately, we had to visit the Apollo Hospitals during our recent


visit to India for Consultations.


We visited your hospital in Goa and Bangalore. Both were horrible


experiences. We found that most of the senior specialist Consultants


are local famous doctors who are enrolled on Commission basis. They


are not employed by you. This is not at all a healthy practice.


Why should a patient visit Apollo to meet this doctor when he can be


met at his Private clinic at a fraction of the cost.


In both the places the doctors were more interested in knowing where we


are from and what is the nature of our employment, what is our mother


tongue. All irrelevant questions. May be they were trying to get maximum


information so that depending on our capacity to pay they would exploit us.


THe Staff at your OPD in the basement of Bangalore Hospital were very rude.


Moreover we had to wait both for the Specialist and the GP. The Specialist


arrived late to work and the GP was taking rounds in the Hospital.


When we pay a huge amount as Consultation fees we expect the Doctors to


attend to us in a dignified manner.


Kindly issue instructions to all your Doctors not to ask personal questions


about the patients/visitors profession etc. unless until itis related to the


illness.


The Doctor in Goa prescribed a Medicine which reacted but he was not willing


to accept the fact that it was his mistake.


The Super Specialist Doctor in Bangalore spoke of a very effective medicine


and prescribed the same medicine which my GP in a town had already given me.


Now that you are on a expansion spree around the Globe you need to take precautions about all these matters.


Accident or negligence?
Jun 03, 2003 03:57 PM 17497 Views

Apollo Hospitals, as the name suggests it is supposedly the top hospital in Chennai for the last decade. But does that give the clear picture of the incidents which take place in such huge corporate hospitals? The most expensive corporate hospital in India with experts in all fields of medicine housed under one roof. They have various branches in the country with mainstay in Chennai where it was incorporated. I want to share this with everyone who is interested and not interested, about what happened to my father. In 2000 September my father was having back pain which could not be located as to where its origin was. So he was asked to go through various tests and the doctors where of the opinion that he had to go through a laminectomy of the D10-D11 and L1 and L2. After taking second opinion he decided to go through the surgery as he was not able to walk properly. The prestigious surgeon assured my father that on the second day of the surgery he would be able to walk out of the hospital. Well do we call it accident or negligence, but he was waist down paralysed on the surgery table. It was a shock for the family. He was working as a Consultant for a prestigious Multi National Company. All his friends, relatives were shocked at the state of affairs. He went in walking to the hospital and came out on the stretcher. The doctors gave us various excuses for the first few days saying it was spinal shock and then later that this would have happened even if he had not gone in for surgery. For months they kept assuring us that he would get back his sensations. We ran from pillar to post to get things right but nothing happened. We then took him to the rehabiitation center at Vellore so that he could learn to live with his disability. It is now nearly two and half years but he has not got back any sensation but has gone through a major surgery for stabilising his spine, as the earlier surgery which had left him paralysed, had destabilised his spine. Even now when I accidently met the surgeon the only question he asks me is ''Has he got his sensation back'' It is a sad story but true. Who is to blame for the sorry state of affairs? My father an intelligent and healthy man whom we have never seen him sick, who has never suffered from any illness like hypertension or diabetes, a physically active man, incapacitated because of the surgery who lost his means of livelihood and confidence...


Its very sad, but my father passed away in 2003 without recovering his sensation.......

Hi all am going share my experience on this apollo hospital which was suited in chennai.


We can visit hospital atlest once in our life like that we may go for hospital mostly it was suited in building manner or by some rental area but this Apollo hospital was very nice place for their patient because off off the treatment is made by doctors, specialist like that but 50%is made to cure by our self alone so for that we may want to do some exercise, jogging, running with good infrastructure and fresh air to recompansate it so they plant many trees inside hospital for good respiration to their patient its nice one.


We won't say anything about the medicine like not available, so much cost then normal cost like that because all kind of medicine are available in that hospital and they had a stock of medicine with expired date and they use those medicen surely with in the expire date itself then if any medicine is need immediately they can arrange it in day or by hours it may take to buy it


There are many staff are working they are all work with shift manners by 8hours they know about the patient condition and all by the older staff and they can take care of him till is duty is get complete and they were hygienic and clean while treating the patient.


Good doctor and best diagnosis methods

It was Tough decision for me to choose among numerous hospital in Chennai. I visited around 5 hospital to get treated for a health issue which has been diagnosis and treated properly only in Apollo Hospital -Grams road. The doctor were friendly and gave me in full information of my condition and the factors which led to such situation. They clarified my doubts and explained the treatment and the way it's work.They did not prescribe unnecessary test are medicines.Of course we will have to wait for longer time that expected despite taking an appointment.it has a lab diagnosis center and pharmacy.parking is a tedious job at this hospital.

My aunt is 68 years old and she has been suffering from spondylitis since past 1 year. She was given medication and everything starting from giving her hot padding to making her do regular exercises and other necessary things were done to keep her problem under control.


However last month, her health conditions worsened and she started having extreme pain and other related problems. She was not comfortable doing anything and also started throwing up now and then. Seeing this, my uncle decided to take her to Apollo were she was shown to a physician. The doctor did her thorough check up and cited a few reasons for the worsening of her health conditions.


Following this, my aunt was provided with the required treatment and has shown great improvement in her health conditions. She is now able to sit for longer duration and also walks across the house slowly. The treatment given to her was not only claimed to be a short term respite for her but seems to have really worked and my aunt now feels much better than earlier.

My brother was facing a problem with his teeth’s from past few months. He had very bad teeth’s. He had curved half broken kind of teeth’s. Then one day he decided to go doctor to get his teeth’s get in a proper shape. Doctor told him that he has to put braces to get his teeth’s in a proper shape.


My brother don’t like to put braces, But the doctor at Apollo Hospital made my brother understand that this is for the betterment for his teeth’s only. Finally my brother got agree for the braces. The doctor was very cautious. Now we can see an improvement and his teeth’s are coming to a proper shape.

I’ve had a personal experience where I almost gave up on my mom’s chances of survival.


But thanks to the never say die efforts of the Doctors of Apollo Chennai, she came back home.


She was diagnosed with simple Malaria that actually got so severe and complicated that it hit her vital organs like liver kidneys etc. which almost stopped functioning. But thanks to timely intervention of this Doctor who immediately admitted her into Apollo and then started the almost precision like methodical treatment from the staff of Apollo - regular clockwork blood tests and so many more that at times I would get irritated about there repeated disturbances - all to no avail - they just kept on their drill - she was even shifted to the ICU when things were not improving - that's when I really gave up !


The very site of all those wires and sensors and that tube on her nose and one tube forever in her wrist and her constant mumbling in her state of semi-consciousness is enough to shake the confidence of the strong hearted - on me - I was devastated.


But the doctors and the staff never gave up. Finally their confidence and hard work payed off.


All this did burn a big hole in my pocket-but no price is too high to pay for one you treasure more than your life.


If health care is what you want then this is the right place you can come to. assured of excellent facilities - clean hygenic food - vigilant security - no anxious relatives crowding around - a lot of breathing space - all the necessary facilities - a working pay phone in every wing on every floor - sockets to charge your cell phones - drinking water on all floors - excellent cafetaria that serves good clean wholesome home like food at a surprising reasonable price.


Thanks to Apollo hospital Chennai.
