Dr. Anil kumar Tennelli

As an elderly grandmother bringing my grandson for treatment, I appreciated how Dr. Anil kumar Tennelli included me in every discussion while still speaking directly to the child. He transformed what could have been a scary rheumatology visit into an educational experience for our whole family.

Emergency admission at 2 AM with my son screaming in pain - Dr. Tennelli arrived within 30 minutes, his calm presence immediately reassuring. His quick diagnosis of septic arthritis and immediate treatment plan saved my child's joint function. We'll forever be grateful for his nighttime dedication.

Routine follow-up for my daughter's lupus treatment became unexpectedly complex when new symptoms emerged. Dr. Tennelli spent an extra hour reviewing her case, consulting colleagues, and adjusting medications. His thoroughness prevented what could have been a serious flare-up.

My teenage son was resistant to treatment until Dr. Tennelli connected with him about cricket and school. He made the medical discussion feel like a conversation between friends, earning my son's trust and compliance with the treatment plan in a way I never could.

Dr. Tennelli was a godsend when my 8-year-old daughter developed unexplained joint swelling and high fever. He calmly explained Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis to us, never rushing despite his busy schedule. His gentle approach made my terrified child actually look forward to follow-up visits. After 3 months of treatment, she's back to dancing classes!
