Our 8-year-old son was diagnosed at Apollo. We were terrified. Dr. Murugan was the first doctor who really talked to our boy, not just us. He explained things in a way a kid could understand, even drawing little pictures. The treatment was hard, and there were days in the hospital that felt endless, but Dr. Murugan’s calmness kept us all going. He remembered my son’s favorite cartoon character and would ask about it. It’s those small things that made a huge difference when everything felt so big and scary. We’re home now, and our boy is back to school. We just feel so grateful.

Had a complex abdominal issue. Other doctors were vague. Went to Apollo Cancer Centre. Dr. Murugan L. reviewed my file, ordered specific scans, and gave me a clear diagnosis and plan within two days. Explained the surgery steps plainly. No sugar-coating. Procedure went as he said. Follow-up was direct. Issues resolved. Good doctor.

I was quite nervous about my procedure, to be honest. Dr. Murugan has such a gentle way about him. He listened to all my worries without making me feel rushed. He spoke softly and made sure I understood each part of what was going to happen. The hospital itself is very busy—I did wait a bit past my appointment time—but once I was with him, he gave me his full attention. Everything went smoothly, and I’m feeling much better now. Thank you.

What a relief! After months of feeling off and getting nowhere, my friend pushed me to see Dr. Murugan. Best decision ever! He actually figured it out! He’s got this great energy—you can tell he loves what he does. The whole team at Apollo was fantastic, but he was the star. The surgery was a success, and my recovery has been way faster than I expected. I’m back on my feet and feeling like myself again. Honestly, just so happy I found him!
