I underwent septoplasty and turbinate reduction surgery at Apollo Multi-Speciality Hospital under Dr. Krishna Kumar. We are extremely satisfied with the entire experience. The doctor and his team, including Dr. Reshma, Ms. Sharanya, and all the nurses like Ms.Vidya Balan and Swarnalata, were very caring. I stayed at Apollo for two days without any concerns. My family and I are very happy with the overall service and care received. We are very grateful.

Had a good experience in the surgical procedure done by Dr Rajsri( Gynecologist) . The nursing, recovery room staffs and hk staffs were courteous and kind during my hospital period. The duty doctors were equally cared and concerned about me during the observation.

The emergency care staff took extremely good care of my well being, and my cardiologist (Dr . Shanmugasundaram) did a good job of treating my condition. I’m doing a lot better thanks to Apollos healthcare staff and I’m extremely grateful for them! (World’s best emergency service).

Recently my son was admitted in Apollo hospital due to dengue fever. Dr.Kannaiyan and his team along with the nurses looked after us well. Within a week my son was completely cured and discharged. We are grateful for the excellent service we got there.
