My wife name is Minu Joshi .

She started suffering from breathlessness and restlessness issues along with pain in the chest three weeks ago. We visited to Indraprastha Apollo hospital many times during this period. She got admitted to the hospital also 3 times during this period. Every time, they were not able to identify the issue and as of now the situation of my wife is not good. Finally, I had to take a discharge from there. To rule out the heart issue, doctor suggested for an angiography. During the procedure, it was very paining to my wife on her hand. Doctor said it will get settled down in a day or two. Its been 8 days now, the pain is keep on increasing and not settled.

Worst thing is Apollo don't share the doctor number with patients so every time you have to visit and waste your time there. You just have to take an appointment again there and pay a huge doctor fees every time which is between Rs[protected].

We went there for the resolution of our issues instead they have introduced more issues. My wife is still in the same state of breathlessness and restlessness. Having a 5 star facility does not mean they have the qualified doctors as well.

In the nutshell, we have had a worst experience. They are just making money.

Thanks,
Bhuwan

I have booked at 27th june through apollo 24/7 app in midnight but as i have selected wrong catagory i have cancelled my booking from then still i have not received refund.

This hospitals has most inhospitable staffs... Specially securitas security guards... They should recruit some well behaved security guards...

Why is apollo hospital at 100ft road, indiranagar, bangalore charging 100 rupees for sanitation. This is mindless. Shouldn't the hospital take care of sanitation. Isn't this looting the public.

We have had health insurance policy, I had to pay 20000 for just processing fee for my Mother surgery.

My mother was told to do colonoscopy and was advised to take 2 bottles of stomach cleansing liquids along with fasting for 5 hours and was asked to come to do the procedure at 11am. We arrived at 11.00 but the doctor didn't turn up until 1pm. My mother is 65 years old and we are doing this testing to detect whether she has cancer in the colon. How can the doctors be so pathetic and not considering the patients situation.

Myself, being a very senior doctor, i would like to share my experience as an attendant of a patient (My wife, also a very senior doctor) at apollo hospital, bhubaneswar. I went from sambalpur and reached at apollo in the evening of 17th march, 2020 after she had symptoms of cad and getting treatment from local cardiologist. She was admitted to icu under the senior most cardiologist of apollo. The next day in the evening 6 pm she was taken for angiography but came out of cath lab around 12: 30 am after angioplasty. After my wife's angiography, angioplasty was done after two other cases. The person had to stay in cath lab for 6 1/2 hrs. Before angioplasty she could sleep well in lying position. After the intervention she was comfortable only in sitting position. After 4 days she was shifted to cabin. She was shifted back to icu after two ays again as she had malaena (Black stool). Her haemoglobin came down. Endoscopy was done twice to reveal minimal problem not enough to determine cause of lowering of haemoglobin. She had mild pulmonary hypertension and mild some other heart problems previously. I was told that those problems have severed by then. I was astonished to hear that the treating doctor was unable to know why the haemoglobin was coming down. There were some more senior cardiologist (Atleast two). None of them were consulted. Hemoglobin was stabilized to 7.5 after seven bottles of blood transfusion. She was shifted to general cabin after 5 days in icu. By then she had already developed generalized edema and pleural effusion along with breathing problem. She was discharged on 30th march, 2020 night with an advice for check up after 1 month. Even after tking all the medications and advices, herrespiratory distress and edema didn't subside. We brought her to apollo again on 15th april, 2020. She developed severe respiratory distress at the hospital prior to admission as there were corona fighters who didn't take her into account for her bad condition (Even after showing all the records). She was not provided oxygen on time which detoriated her condition. She was finally admitted again to icu in critical condition after the investigating cardiologist intervened. Corona swab test was also done which came out to be negative. Two bottles of blood and five days of stay did nothing to keep her alive and she left us on 20th april, 2020.
During the second phase of stay, the nephrologist didn' t come even till the 3rd day (A resident doctor of the same department was available). 9 litres of fluid was removed from my wife's body by dialysis even though the renal functionality were normal. The consulting doctor didn't have any fixed time for visiting the patient. The doctor didn't have time to take into confidence neither the patient nor the attendant. The doctors there in general donot have humanity, sentiments and emotions. They are mean minded indulged in financial gain only and extremely egoistic. Egoistic in the sense that they are reluctant to even consult senior doctors or specialist if there is something that they themselves cannot decipher.
Both myself and dmy wife have served at village level and district level for more than 30 years in government sector. We know what a doctor means to a patient. One thing i must say in lay man terms, the patient was brought in a good condition (Apparently) which worsened after treatment and couldn't be revived due to complications. There should be more experienced nursing staff atleast in the icu. The fooding service of patient and attendant is probably the worst. Food is being served in plastic trays which is most repelling. The behaviour of security guards is unbearable. They don't have humanity even after patient expires.

If my experience is such, i don't know what might be happening with the general people.

As i am not able to visit clinic during this corona situation, please provide me alternate solutions if any.

Hi. Recently i went to apollo hospital in tondiarpet with my wife for check up. The doctor suggested to take anomaly scan. Next day i called to the hospital to fix the appointment they asked my detail when i said my address that is i'm from royapuram. They denied us to give the appointment and they said covid 19 cases are high in your area so we won't give any appointment who comes from royapura..
This is very hurting behaviour. Kindly take the action against them..

Sub:failed virtual consultation advertised by apollo hospital.

I had a virtual consultation appointment with dr. Suraj susheel lunawat on 27th of april at 9.30am, appointment id 184521. I was to receive a call from the doctor which i did not and it became a failed consultation.

I had used their app askapollo to fix the appointment and had made a prepayment of rs. 1199 for the consultation.

Since the appointment did not take place, i had asked for a refund of the amount paid by me but has not received any reply from them.

Moumita Sarkar UHID AF[protected] consulted online with doctor through Apollo247 (App ID 48208) on 27.04.2020 at 4 pm.
Payment receipt not received. On contacting to helpdesk, they denied to give the same.

My brother met with an accident and was admitted in apollo hospital, karur on (16.01.2020) which was the nearest. He had a fracture in his left shoulder and there was swelling. Dr there did not stabilise his pain and cornered us surgery to be done immediately. We accepted and he did a wrong surgery, for a major fracture instead of fixing plate after proper reduction, he placed k-wires. Everything done with money mind, due to their lethargic act and wrong surgery we went on a re-surgery after consultation with leading hospitals and specialist. My brother for the past two months has undergone more pain and tension due to this hospital and dr. Worst service never expected a dr to do like this, will never suggest anyone to go there. They use our emergency and make money out of that. Worst in everything

Sir, my name is n jagdish rao, mob. No [protected], regular customer of vadlapudi, visakhapatnam dispensary. For corona prevention steps are taken deliver medicines at entry of shop itself which is good. However for payment by card shopkeeper is asking for atm card secret number. Which is illegal as per guidelines of rbi. They give justification that machine card cord can not reach till entry. My suggestion is learn from petrol pumpscard payment by card. This practice of getting atm secret number must stop.

Purchased medicines at apollo pharmacy, my home jewel apartments, madinaguda, hyderabad -500049. Expiry date of the medicines is september 2020. Today, i requested the shop keeper to exchange the excess medicine - eight strips of sheecal tablets (Calcium tablets with vitamin d), but they declined to exchange the excess medicines. I request you to advise them to accept exchange of excess medicines.

We went to apollo hospital drdo, kanchanbagh for medication. Receptionist and op billing people are asking money to visit doctor, when i said that my father is a pensioner then they are asking us "to submit credit memo or else pay bill and you can visit doctor". After visiting doctor,...

I had my son ACH1.[protected], AC01.[protected] undergo surgery in Apollo Chennai. I am thankful to Dr. & his team for the successful surgery, the doctors and nurses who helped him recover post-operative. But I am hugely disappointed and probably would avoid Apollo any further based on the experiences with billing and admin team.

I was initially told the surgery costs would be Rs. 250000/- with 4-5 day stay. We were good to be...
