Patient Reviews
Neha Jaiswal
Patient
Dr. Apoorv Krishna is one of the most knowledgeable and humble doctors I’ve met. I had sleep apnea and was struggling with fatigue and disturbed sleep. He diagnosed it properly and set me up with the right CPAP treatment. Feeling fresh and energetic after years. Thank you, doctor!

Patient’s family member
My father was admitted to the ICU under Dr. Krishna’s care with a serious lung infection. The way he handled the case, kept us informed, and managed every detail was outstanding. His experience in critical care is clearly evident. Thank you, doctor, for saving my father’s life.

Patient
I was suffering from severe asthma for years and had tried multiple doctors. Dr. Apoorv Krishna was the first one to truly understand my condition and provide a treatment plan that worked. With his guidance, I have far fewer attacks and a much better quality of life. He explains everything clearly, and genuinely cares for his patients
