Many patients reach me frightened, because they never understood what the last doctor told them. So the first thing I do is sit down without rushing. I go through the report in plain Telugu. What stage it is, where the tumour sits, why this particular treatment, drawing a small diagram if that helps. I only move forward once the patient nods and genuinely says, "I understand now."

Before we start chemotherapy I make sure the family knows one thing clearly: which side effects are normal, and which ones mean call me straight away. They are the ones watching at home. When they have that clarity, the patient feels braver, and half the battle is won right there.
