My 8-year-old son had a high fever that wouldn't break, and I was terrified. Dr. Dhavendra Kumar at Apollo Delhi saw us quickly, even though the waiting area was packed. He didn't just talk to me; he got down on my son's level, explained everything in a way a kid could understand, and made him laugh. He called us the next day to check in himself. That kind of care when you're a scared parent means everything.
Had my gallbladder out last month. The surgery went fine, but honestly, I was dreading the recovery. Dr. Kumar's team had a clear plan for managing the pain that actually worked—none of that 'just tough it out' nonsense. He was straight with me about what to expect each day, which weird aches were normal, and when to actually worry. It made the whole healing process less scary. I'm back to my routine now, feeling much better.
Saw Dr. Kumar for a persistent stomach issue. He listened, ordered the right tests, and fixed me up. No fuss, no unnecessary drama. Parking at Apollo was a nightmare, though.
I've been putting off seeing a doctor about my fatigue for months, just chalking it up to getting older. Finally booked an appointment with Dr. Dhavendra Kumar. The first thing he did was ask about my work, my sleep, everything—not just the symptoms. He remembered small details I'd mentioned weeks earlier. We ran some tests, adjusted a few things, and he explained the 'why' behind every suggestion. It wasn't a magic cure, but I feel more like myself now. He treats you like a whole person, not just a chart.
