Dear Readers
My entire family is indebted to Dr Ammaiappan for his extraordinary services to my ailing parents. I have been taking treatment to my father for the last two years at Fortis Malar, Adyar, Chennai. Despite the COVID lockdown and the difficulty to reach the hospital from Mar20, Dr is very kind enough to consult through WhatsApp and prescribed the medicines that too without any fees. My father is living in Cuddalore and am at Chennai. I could not able to reach my parents due to lockdown.
My father SPo2 was at 80% at some point in time and I could not able to do anything. Through the WhatsApp consultation by Dr and the support of O2 concentrator, medicines etc had saved my Father. Further, Dr has excellent networking and logistics for the medical equipment and support system etc. The contact details were provided and you need not run around and further stressing yourself to source them at critical times.
At the beginning of this year, my father was fallen sick due to fluid accumulation in the lungs and not being able to breathe comfortably. My Father was admitted at Fortis and because of Dr he was completely recovered after 5 days
The highlight of the whole episode was both of my parents were tested Covid Positive during 3rd week of Aug'21 in Cuddalore. I immediately consulted with Dr and rushed my parents to Fortis Malar in the next day due to Dr advice. At one stage my hope was falling down due to the admission of my Father in Covid-ICU for a week and my mother was in a Covid ward. The amount of stress I had undergone during the hospital admission period will not be forgettable throughout my life.
Dr was sharing the health conditions and briefed the progress of improvement of my parents every day. Parents were separated and my Father was in ICU and my Mother was in a Ward also made my parents shaky and worried lot. There was no communication between them.
My mother aged 70 was discharged after a week and my father aged 82 was discharged after ten days.
Without Dr Ammaiappan's unstinted support and courage to listen to all our pains with compassion and patience, the miracle of saving both my parents could not have happened. I am thanking the almighty for showing Dr Ammaiappan to my family to get rid of our pains/illness and saved my parent's lives.
I am praying to God for well being of Dr and his family and wish that Dr Ammaiappan should reach further greater heights and serve society for very long years.
Thank You

Visited Dr. Babu Ezhumalai (Interventional Cardiologist)
Note:Â This doctor is no longer practicing at
I had a massive heart attack on 16.05.2021 being Sunday, total lock down at Chennai by 11.30 a.m.
It was massive in the sense it was called widow maker heart attack.I was rushed and virtually lifted by my brother in his car within 20 minutes to Kavery Hospital and it was found out that there there was 100% block in the main valve of the heart. Angio was done ,the block was removed but stent was fixed by a leading international cardiologist.
Follow up check up was done on 4 occasion s by him.
But unfortunately he never asked me to take ECG or Echocardiogram. Due to this on 23rd November 2021 I was breathless and could not lie down or sit.
My bladder was full. No urine output. This continued on 24 th November 2021. On 25 th November 2021 I was taken to Kavery for OP check up but all the cardiologists were busy in Angio and they refused to talk to me at least over intercom.
We returned empty handed. No appointment in his private clinic.
On 26 th November God gave the contact of Dr E.BABU International Cardiologist through my younger brother.
We ,( myself and my wife) took an appointment by contacting Malar hospital and met him. By seeing condition of being wheel chair bound immediately instructed us to take ECG and Echocardiogram and added some medicines.
What a miracle on the same night I had a good and sound sleep.
All my problems were completely resolved by his prescription of additional medicines.
Dr E Babu is my saviour.
Dr E Babu is my God..
He is very courteous to all the patients.
He is very kind and having lot of patience to hear the patient.
He is authority in his subject .Easily approachable. Very cordial .***** **** *********.
Highly Recommended.

Happy with:Â Explanation of the health issueTreatment satisfaction
I am T.K.Lakshmikantan ,90 year old. I had 2 bypass heart surgeries and had COPD for past 13 years.
I have consulted Dr. RAJKUMAR from day 1 and have never met such a dedicated doctor. He is so systematic, thorough.He has great medical knowledge and expertise. I have been hospitalised quite a few times, with pneumonia for bronchoscopy, acute chest congestion. Everytime Dr. Rajkumar attended me promptly with so much of care,affection. He visited everyday even on holidays to ensure my path to recovery.He is such a great listener of patients complaints. He always make sure he addresses all my fears,inhibitions. He cleared all my doubts about every procedure,treatment. When i was depressed during long hospital stays,he consoled me like a son. I admire his calm and composed approach despite his very busy schedule especially during Covid days.
After 18 days of hospitalisation, I am back home to celebrate my 90 th birthday on Diwali. I owe this to him and his team whose professional and friendly care, is surely an epitome for great medical service to super citizens like me.
I pray God to grant him more National and International accolades and awards as such rare gems are hard to find these days.
Visited Dr. Pradeep Gopinath Nayar (Cardiologist) For Pacemaker Implantation
I am deeply indebted to Dr. Pradeep Nayar. He saved my father's life. Dad, age 85 was in terrible condition when i took him to fortis emergency dept. He was having severe breathlessness, high blood pressure and pulse dropping to a count of 40. The good doctors team stabilized him in ICU and drained fluids from his lungs. Dr then implanted a pacemaker into him after COVID tests came negative and took good care of him. I also wish to thank his team (Dr. Abdul & others) as well for being very supportive. What i really like about the Dr. is how readily available he was on the phone thru whatsapp even though he had a busy schedule. Post operation and discharge my dad went thru various ups and downs with diarrhea, constipation, rapid breathing, weakness, fatigue etc. and i reached out to the Dr innumerable times. Every step of the way he gave me guidance on what needs to be done - tests, medications and consultations with lung specialist etc. He even helped me with sticky admin issues i had with getting the soft copy of a CT report when the hospital staff was not being helpful. I sincerely appreciate all that he has done for my dad who has since stabilized and able to manage day to day now. I thank him sincerely from my heart and am glad to have approached him for my father's serious medical condition. Above all, he is a good human being and i will recommend him to anyone.
