My son, Arjun, was just eight when we got the news. The world stopped. We were terrified. Dr. Premkumar at Apollo Cancer Centre saw us, and the first thing he did was get down to Arjun's eye level. He explained things in a way we could all understand, even drawing little pictures for Arjun. There were long days, and the waiting room was often crowded, but Dr. Premkumar never rushed us. He answered every single one of my frantic questions, no matter how small. Seeing my little boy smile again, that's because of the care he received. We're home now, and Arjun asks when we can go back to visit the doctor who fixed him.

Needed a second opinion on a complex diagnosis. Booked with Dr. Premkumar K. at Apollo Cancer Centre. He reviewed my file thoroughly before I even walked in. Appointment was direct, no fluff. He laid out the facts, the options, and his recommended course clearly. Asked if I understood. Got the treatment started quickly. Follow-up was efficient. Got the job done.

I was so scared to walk into that hospital. Everything felt so big and clinical. But Dr. Premkumar… he has such a calm way about him. He listened more than he talked, which I needed. He never made me feel foolish for being afraid. There was one day I was particularly low, and he just sat for an extra moment and said, 'We will get through this step by step.' It meant more than he knows. The care here is very good, yes, but it was his kindness that made it bearable.

What a find! After months of feeling awful and getting nowhere, my GP referred me to Dr. Premkumar. Honestly, parking was a nightmare that first day, but wow, was it worth it! He figured out what was going on in two visits where others had scratched their heads. Started treatment right away, and I'm feeling like myself again. The nurses said he's one of the best, and I totally see why. So glad he's at Apollo!
