My granddaughter was quite unwell, and I must admit I was rather anxious bringing her in. The hospital itself is large and can feel a bit overwhelming for someone my age. However, Dr. Vijaysekaran put us both at ease immediately. He spoke to me with such respect, explaining my little one's condition in terms I could understand without feeling rushed. He took the time to listen to all my old-fashioned worries. We left feeling cared for, not just as patients, but as people.

My son had a persistent fever that wouldn't break. We saw Dr. Vijaysekaran at Apollo Children's. He was clear, asked the right questions, and ordered the necessary tests without any fuss. The diagnosis was straightforward, the treatment plan made sense, and it worked. The wait to see him was a bit long, but once we were in, he was efficient and focused. My son is better now.

We were so worried about our baby. She was so small and fussy, and we didn't know what was wrong. Dr. Vijaysekaran has a very gentle way about him. He spoke softly, examined her with such care, and even managed to get her to calm down. He didn't just talk to us; he really listened to every little detail we shared. It felt like we were in good hands. We're so grateful for his kindness during a scary time for us.

What a relief! After weeks of our toddler being miserable with ear infections, we finally got to see Dr. Vijaysekaran. He figured it out straight away—something the previous doctor had missed. He was so confident and explained everything with a bit of a smile, which really helped my own nerves. The parking situation was a hassle, but honestly, it was worth it. My kid is finally sleeping through the night again. Thank you, Doctor!
