Meridian Hospital, Kolathur

I am Mrs. Dhanalakshmi - 33 years old and I would like to share my experience about the care I received. I was diagnosed with carcinoma of the right lateral tongue and had previously undergone radiation treatment. After shrinking the tumour, I was advised to undergo wide local excision with right lymph node removal (extended supraomohyoid neck dissection), and I chose to proceed under Dr. Kenny Robert’s guidance.

From my very first visit, Dr. Kenny Robert treated me with warmth, compassion, and respect. He patiently explained my diagnosis in detail, outlining why surgery was necessary even after radiation, and described every step of the procedure in a way I could easily understand. He also explained the possible risks and the expected recovery process, which gave me both clarity and courage to face the surgery.

On the day of the operation, his calm and reassuring approach helped ease my fears. The surgery was performed with utmost precision, and I woke up with minimal discomfort. The hospital stay was smooth. I was discharged the next day. Dr. Kenny Robert personally monitored my recovery, ensuring that my pain was managed, my wound healed well, and that I was able to return to my routine activities as soon as possible.

Beyond his surgical skills, what impressed me most was his dedication to his patients. He never rushed appointments, always listened to my concerns, and made me feel genuinely cared for as a person, not just as a case. His encouragement and positivity played a huge role in my healing process.

I am truly thankful to Dr. Kenny Robert for giving me a new lease on life. For anyone facing a similar diagnosis, I would wholeheartedly recommend him as a doctor who combines world-class surgical expertise with a kind and caring heart.

I am Nagabasavanna, 56 years old. I was diagnosed with chondrosarcoma of the sternum body, a rare and serious form of bone cancer. It was a very difficult time for me and my family, but thanks to the exceptional care and expertise of Dr. Kenny Robert, I was able to undergo and recover from a highly complex surgery with confidence and hope.

Under Dr. Kenny Robert’s care, I underwent a subtotal sternum excision followed by 3D titanium prosthesis neo-reconstruction and bilateral PMMC advancement flap. This was the first such procedure in Tamil Nadu and 3rd in the country overall. This procedure was both technically advanced and challenging, but Dr. Kenny Robert and his team handled it with outstanding skill and precision.

From the very first consultation, Dr. Kenny explained everything clearly, patiently answered all our doubts, and guided us through the entire process with professionalism and compassion. His dedication, ********** and calm reassurance gave me ***** strength and confidence to face the surgery.

The use of cutting-edge technology, including a custom 3D titanium prosthesis, played a vital role in rebuilding my chest wall and ensuring structural support, while the reconstructive flap ensured proper healing and coverage. Dr. Kenny’s meticulous surgical approach and close post-operative monitoring made my recovery smooth and successful.

I am now on the road to recovery and regaining my normal life — all thanks to Dr. Kenny Robert’s expertise, vision, and personal care. He is not just an excellent surgeon but also a kind and humble human being who truly puts his patients first.

I will always remain deeply grateful to Dr. Kenny and his entire team. Today I am back to my daily 5km walks, bike rides and my favourite hobbies. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of complex thoracic and other oncological or reconstructive surgery. ** ***** ** *** ** *** **** ** *** ******

My wife, Mrs. Deepika, began experiencing severe and persistent stomach pain in January 2025. Initially, we thought it might be a minor gastric issue, but as weeks passed, the pain became more frequent and intense, disrupting her daily activities and quality of life. Concerned about her health, we consulted several reputed gastroenterologists and followed their prescribed treatments over the next few months. Unfortunately, despite undergoing multiple tests and trying different medications, there was no significant improvement in her condition.

On April 11, 2025, Mrs. Deepika experienced an episode of excruciating pain that was unbearable. Fearing something serious, we rushed her to Isabel Hospital, Mylapore, for emergency treatment. After initial management there, we continued seeking opinions and further consultations at Military Hospital, Guindy, and Apollo Hospitals, OMR. Although she was provided temporary relief, the root cause of the problem remained unclear, and the intense pain kept recurring.

Amidst growing worry, we heard about Dr. Kenny Robert, a well-known Surgical Oncologist at Meridien Hospitals, Kolathur. We decided to consult him and visited him on April 14, 2025. From the moment we met Dr. Kenny, we felt a sense of assurance. He carefully reviewed all previous investigation reports, patiently listened to the history of symptoms, and explained his observations in a way that was both professional and easy to understand. He identified that the actual problem was the presence of multiple gallstones in the gallbladder, causing inflammation and severe pain. Dr. Kenny clearly explained the surgical procedure (cholecystectomy – removal of the gallbladder), the associated risks, the steps involved in the surgery, and the timeline for hospitalization and recovery.

With complete confidence in his approach, Mrs. Deepika underwent laparoscopic gallbladder surgery on April 16, 2025. Thanks to Dr. Kenny’s surgical expertise and the hospital's excellent care, the procedure was successfully completed without complications. She was kept under close observation in the hospital for two days to monitor her recovery. Throughout this period, Dr. Kenny and his team were attentive, regularly checking her progress and providing timely updates, which gave us immense peace of mind.

Mrs. Deepika was discharged on April 18, 2025, and has since been recovering steadily at home. She is regaining her strength day by day and is on her way to a full and fast recovery.

We are extremely grateful to Dr. Kenny Robert and his entire team for their expertise, care, and support. Dr. Kenny’s approachable nature, clear communication, and dedication made a very difficult time much easier for us.

Highly recommended for surgical oncology and gallbladder-related treatments.
