Doctor: Dr. Abdul Ahad Hospital: Apollo Children's Hospital Chennai

I was so scared for my first appointment. Dr. Ahad just talked to me calmly, explained everything in simple words, and didn't rush. The hospital is huge and I got lost, but once I was in his room, I felt okay. He's really good with nervous people.

Doctor: Dr. Abdul Ahad Hospital: Apollo Children's Hospital Chennai

My 4-year-old had a high fever that wouldn't break, and we were panicking. Dr. Abdul Ahad at Apollo Children's saw us quickly. He got down on his knee to talk to my son directly, which made him stop crying. He explained the viral pattern to us in a way that actually made sense, not just medical jargon. We left with clear instructions and, more importantly, without that awful feeling of dread. He treated my child like a person, not a chart.

Had a bad stomach thing for a week. Went to see Dr. Ahad. He figured it out fast, gave me a straightforward plan. Fixed me up. No fuss, good doctor.

Doctor: Dr. Abdul Ahad Hospital: Apollo Children's Hospital Chennai

We'd been to two other doctors about my son's constant tiredness and were getting nowhere. At Apollo, the wait was long—the place was packed—but Dr. Ahad was worth it. He spent the first ten minutes just asking my son about his school, his friends, what he liked to do. He connected the dots we missed: how the fatigue started after a minor fall at football. Ordered one specific test others hadn't. Turns out it was a mild deficiency, easily managed. It wasn't just about the diagnosis; it was about how he listened to the whole story we didn't even know we were telling.
