Our son, Arjun, had a high fever that wouldn't break for days. We were scared. Dr. Ananthanarayanan saw us at Apollo Children's. He didn't rush. He listened to everything, explained it was a stubborn viral thing, and laid out a clear plan. He spoke directly to Arjun too, which calmed him down. The hospital was busy, but the doctor made us feel like we were his only case. We left feeling heard and sure of what to do.

My daughter Priya needed a check-up after a bad bout of tonsillitis. Dr. Ananthanarayanan was so gentle with her. He remembered small details from her last visit, which surprised us. He explained the recovery process to me in simple terms, without any confusing medical jargon. I was a bit nervous at first, but his quiet, confident way put us both at ease. Priya actually smiled by the end of the appointment.

Doctor: Dr. Ananthanarayanan K Hospital: Apollo Children's Hospital Chennai

What a relief! Our little one had a weird rash, and we were going in circles with home remedies. Got an appointment with Dr. Ananthanarayanan. He took one look, asked a few questions, and knew exactly what it was—something common we'd never heard of. He drew a simple picture on the notepad to show us how the cream would work. No drama, just clear facts and a solution. The parking lot was packed, but seeing him was worth the hassle.

We came from out of town, really worried about our baby's constant cough. Dr. Ananthanarayanan was thorough. He checked everything, asked about our family history, and even discussed the weather back home! He said it was likely allergies aggravated by the travel. Gave us practical advice for the journey back. He has a kind of calm energy that just makes you trust him. We're so glad we found him.

Doctor: Dr. Sukanya Govindan Hospital: Apollo Children's Hospital Chennai

Our son had been sick for weeks, and three other doctors just said it was a bad virus. Dr. Sukanya was the first one who really listened. She asked my wife and me so many questions about tiny details we'd forgotten. She ordered a specific blood test no one else had thought of. It turned out to be something pretty rare, but she knew exactly what to do. We were scared, but her calm explanation of the treatment plan made all the difference. He's back to his old self now, and we finally feel like we can breathe again.

Doctor: Dr. Sukanya Govindan Hospital: Apollo Children's Hospital Chennai

My daughter needed to get her tonsils out. I was more nervous than she was, honestly. The whole thing felt very routine for Dr. Sukanya and her team, which actually helped calm me down. She explained everything in simple terms before the surgery. The procedure itself went just as she said it would, no surprises. My girl was eating ice cream and watching cartoons a few hours later. Sometimes, straightforward and smooth is exactly what you need.

Doctor: Dr. Sukanya Govindan Hospital: Apollo Children's Hospital Chennai

We had to travel from Madurai for my grandson's appointment. The hospital was huge and busy, parking was a nightmare, and I was completely lost. But from the moment we walked in, the staff at the front desk were so kind. One lady saw I was confused and personally walked us to Dr. Sukanya's clinic. Even the nurse who took his weight was great with kids, making silly faces to get him to cooperate. The place felt clean and bright, not scary. It made a long, stressful day much easier to handle.

Doctor: Dr. Sukanya Govindan Hospital: Apollo Children's Hospital Chennai

What I'll remember most is how Dr. Sukanya talked to my teenage daughter. She was embarrassed about her skin issue and didn't want to talk. Dr. Sukanya didn't just talk to me; she spoke directly to her, without any judgment, and gave her options. She made my daughter feel like she was in charge of her own treatment. You could tell she genuinely cared about how my girl felt, not just about fixing the problem. That kind of respect means everything.

Doctor: Dr. Vidya Krishna Hospital: Apollo Children's Hospital Chennai

We'd been to a couple of doctors about our daughter's persistent stomach aches with no real answers. From the moment we walked in, Dr. Krishna was different. She asked our daughter questions directly, got her to draw where it hurt, and really pieced the story together. She remembered a detail from our first visit two weeks prior that even I had forgotten. It wasn't just about the medicine she prescribed; it was the way she solved the puzzle with us. We finally have a plan that makes sense.

After weeks of worrying about my toddler's poor weight gain, we saw Dr. Vidhya. She listened to everything, asked smart questions, and figured out it was a simple feeding issue we'd overlooked.

Parking at Apollo was a hassle, but seeing Dr. Vidhya was worth it. My child had a nasty cough keeping everyone up.

Doctor: Dr. Kathirvel M Hospital: Apollo Children's Hospital Chennai

My son was admitted with a high fever and we were so scared. Dr. Kathirvel explained everything to us in simple terms, not just medical jargon. He took the time to draw a little diagram on a notepad to show us what was happening. Even when the shift changed, he made sure the new doctor knew our case. It made a stressful time much easier to handle.

As an older person, I am often anxious about hospital visits. Dr. Kathirvel at Apollo Children's was very kind and put me at ease.

Had a good experience with Dr. Kathirvel. My kid had a bad stomach bug. The doc was straight to the point, explained the cause clearly, and the meds worked fast. No fuss, just good care. Would see him again if needed.

Doctor: Dr. Kathirvel M Hospital: Apollo Children's Hospital Chennai

We'd been to two other doctors about our daughter's constant tiredness and were getting nowhere. At Apollo, the wait was long and the parking lot was a nightmare, but Dr. Kathirvel was different. He spent the first ten minutes just asking her about her school day and what she liked to do. He connected her symptoms in a way that finally made sense—turned out to be a simple vitamin deficiency everyone else had missed. He called us two days later to check on her, which really surprised us. That personal touch, after we'd felt so dismissed before, meant the world.
