Patient Experience
My 16-year-old daughter's severe obesity was affecting her mental health.

His genuine care gave our family hope during our darkest time.
Rushed to Gem Hospital Aminjikarai with a strangulated hernia complicating my obesity, Dr. Jayanth performed emergency revision surgery at 2 AM. His calm demeanor while explaining the risks to my panicked family, followed by the flawless procedure, saved my life. The man works miracles under pressure.
What impressed me most during my routine pre-bariatric workup was how Dr. Jayanth noticed subtle thyroid symptoms others had missed for years. He coordinated with endocrinology before proceeding, this holistic approach shows he cares about root causes, not just performing surgeries.

During follow-up, I confessed I'd regained 8 kg. Instead of judgment, Dr. Jayanth spent an hour analyzing my food diary, discovered my protein timing was off, and created a new meal schedule. His follow-up care is as thorough as his surgical skill.
As a bariatric patient with rare connective tissue disorder, my case required extreme precision. Dr. Jayanth collaborated with rheumatology, practiced my anatomy using 3D modeling, and perfected the sleeve gastrectomy with reinforced suturing. His dedication to unusual cases is extraordinary.
The way Dr. Jayanth explained metabolic changes using simple cooking analogies, comparing my metabolism to a 'slow cooker needing retuning', made complex science accessible. His ability to educate while building trust is a rare gift.
When surgical complications arose from previous scarring, Dr. Jayanth transformed the challenge into opportunity by combining my duodenal switch with innovative adhesion prevention techniques. He turns obstacles into advantages with breathtaking skill.
My teenage son's pre-bariatric nutritional counseling with Dr. Jayanth felt more like a supportive mentorship. He used gaming analogies ('leveling up your health stats') that resonated deeply, making my son an active participant in his transformation journey.
As a physician myself, I scrutinize other doctors meticulously. Dr. Jayanth's mastery of advanced laparoscopic techniques for my complex hernia repair alongside gastric bypass was academic-level brilliant. I'd trust him with my most critical cases.
The emotional care Dr. Jayanth provided my wife during her weight loss journey, remembering her fear of hospitals from childhood and always having her favorite nurse assist, shows healing isn't just about surgical precision but human connection.
When rare nutritional deficiencies appeared post-surgery, Dr. Jayanth personally researched emerging protocols and connected me with international specialists. His commitment extends far beyond the operating room.
My emergency port revision required immediate intervention during holiday hours. Dr. Jayanth canceled his family plans and performed the procedure with the same focus as elective surgery. This man embodies medical devotion.

Her understanding of my artistic needs and the precision of her technique allowed me to return to my craft within weeks, creating my most intricate pieces yet.
My 8-year-old daughter developed a mysterious abdominal mass that baffled multiple specialists. Dr. Sekaran's systematic approach and willingness to consult international experts led to a diagnosis of a rare pediatric condition. Her minimally invasive surgery preserved my daughter's organs, and she's now back to competitive gymnastics.
During a monsoon flood emergency, my elderly father needed emergency surgery for a ruptured appendix. Dr. Sekaran waded through chest-high water to reach the hospital and performed the life-saving procedure by generator light when the power failed. Her dedication in crisis conditions was extraordinary.

My wife, a professional violinist, developed a rare diaphragmatic condition affecting her breathing and performance. Dr. Sekaran collaborated with respiratory specialists and music therapists to design a surgical approach that preserved her lung capacity. She's now playing with greater endurance than before her symptoms began.
After surviving a building collapse, I had multiple internal injuries and complex abdominal trauma. Dr. Sekaran coordinated a 12-hour multi-specialty surgery, reconstructing my digestive system with techniques she'd developed through trauma research. Her innovative approach saved organs other surgeons would have removed.
At 72, I was terrified of surgery, but Dr. Jayanth Leo X L's patience with my endless questions and his step-by-step explanation of the gastric sleeve procedure made me feel secure. He even adjusted my post-op diet considering my age-related digestion issues. Six months later, I've lost 40 kg and can play with my grandchildren without getting breathless.
