Patient Experience
Dr. Senthil Kumar performed a complex Whipple procedure on my 72-year-old father with pancreatic cancer. His calm demeanor during the 8-hour surgery and daily bedside visits made us feel secure. Three years later, my father still tends his garden thanks to Dr. Kumar's precision and post-op care plan.
Our 9-year-old daughter was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in her femur. Dr. Kumar not only saved her leg with limb-sparing surgery but connected with her through dinosaur analogies about 'rebuilding bones.' His team at MIOT created a child-friendly environment that eased her fears throughout chemotherapy follow-ups.
Rushed to MIOT with acute intestinal obstruction from metastatic cancer, I was terrified. Dr. Kumar performed emergency surgery at midnight, explaining everything to my family between procedures. His swift decision-making and the way he coordinated with ICU staff saved my life during those critical hours.
As a breast cancer survivor, my routine 6-month checkup with Dr. Kumar felt like visiting a trusted friend. He remembered details about my grandchildren and noticed subtle changes in my scans that others might miss. His preventive approach makes me feel protected beyond just treatment.
Flew from Dubai specifically for Dr. Kumar's opinion on my rare adrenal tumor. His multidisciplinary tumor board review offered options no other surgeon had proposed. The robotic surgery left minimal scarring, and his WhatsApp follow-ups across time zones showed incredible dedication.
Watched Dr. Kumar handle my mother's palliative surgery with profound humanity. He didn't just operate; he helped us understand quality-of-life tradeoffs, spending evenings drawing diagrams of what to expect. His honesty about outcomes while maintaining hope was exactly what we needed.
My thyroid cancer surgery was scheduled between Dr. Kumar's international conferences. He flew back specifically to perform my operation, then handled my post-op care via video consultations when he had to leave again. That level of personal commitment is unheard of.
Dr. Kumar detected my early-stage gastric cancer during what was supposed to be a routine endoscopy for acidity. His insistence on additional biopsies despite normal-looking mucosa caught the cancer at stage 1. I owe him more than surgery - I owe him vigilance.
As a medical student observing surgeries, I specifically requested to watch Dr. Kumar's sarcoma resection. His teaching during the procedure - explaining nerve-sparing techniques and oncological boundaries - was as precise as his surgical skills. He operates with both hands and wisdom.
After two failed surgeries elsewhere for recurrent abdominal tumors, Dr. Kumar took my complex case. His innovative approach using intraoperative radiotherapy combined with hyperthermic chemotherapy gave me hope when others had none. His research background shines in difficult cases.
My husband's emergency tracheostomy was performed by Dr. Kumar during a tumor-related airway crisis. The speed and precision with which he worked in that stressful situation, while calmly explaining each step to me, demonstrated extraordinary surgical prowess under pressure.
Dr. Kumar managed my oral cancer reconstruction with tissue from my forearm. His attention to both oncological safety and cosmetic outcome shows he views patients as whole people. Even my dentist commented on the impeccable surgical work during my dental follow-up.
For my liver metastasis surgery, Dr. Kumar collaborated with a hepatologist, interventional radiologist, and nutritionist in a truly integrated approach. His ability to lead a team while valuing each specialist's input resulted in perfect coordination of my complex care journey.
