I was so nervous going in for my first check-up in years. The waiting area was packed and I almost left. Dr. Krishna Kumar just had this calm way about him that made me feel silly for worrying. He explained everything in simple terms, no medical jargon. Left feeling like a weight was off my shoulders.

Seen Dr. Kumar for over 8 years now, through a couple of health scares and just regular stuff. What I appreciate is he remembers me, knows my history without always checking the file. He doesn't jump to conclusions or push unnecessary tests. You build a trust with a doctor, and he's earned it. The care at Apollo OMR is good, but it's him that keeps me coming back.

Had a weird pain in my side. Saw Dr. Kumar at Apollo OMR. He was straight to the point, ordered the right scan, figured it out. Fixed me up. No fuss, good doctor.

Doctor: Dr. Krishna Kumar Hospital: Apollo Speciality Hospitals OMR Chennai

My story with Dr. Kumar started on a rainy Tuesday. I'd been feeling run down for weeks, putting it off. The hospital parking was a nightmare, which put me in a bad mood. He walked in, didn't rush, and just listened. I mean really listened, while I rambled about work stress and sleep. He connected dots I didn't see, suggested it might be more than just 'being tired' and ordered some specific blood work. Turns out he was right. It wasn't anything dramatic, but catching it early saved me a lot of trouble. That appointment changed how I view going to the doctor.
