My son had his appendix out. The first few days after were rough, I won't lie. But Dr. Padankati's team had a clear plan for the pain. They explained what was normal soreness and what wasn't. It wasn't just pills; they showed us how to position him to be more comfortable. We're three weeks out now, and he's back to playing, just a bit slower. The follow-up call from the hospital to check on his recovery was a nice touch.

Our daughter needed a procedure. Dr. Padankati at Apollo Children's was direct. He explained the steps, the risks, and the recovery timeline clearly, without sugarcoating. We appreciated that. The hospital was busy, but his instructions were precise. Recovery went exactly as he said it would. Good result. No complications.

I was so worried when they said my little one needed an operation. Dr. Padankati has a very calm way about him. He listened to all my fears and never made me feel rushed. He took time with the drawings to show me what he would do. After surgery, he came to see us personally every morning, even on the weekend. His gentle manner made a scary time much easier for our family.

What a relief! My child had been in recurring pain for months. Other places just gave us medicine. Dr. Padankati actually found the cause. The surgery itself was scary, but he walked us through everything. When he came out to the waiting room and said 'All went perfectly,' I finally felt like I could breathe again. The nurses were great, and the whole experience, while stressful, finally gave us answers. So glad we went to him.
