I was searching for a pulmonologist for my mother-in-law, and one of my good friends referred me to this doctor. My mother-in-law had been struggling with multiple issues for over a year and a half without any improvement, as doctors in her hometown couldn't determine the root cause. However, here in Hyderabad, Dr. Vijay Kumar diagnosed the cause within a couple of days and initiated treatment, resulting in a significant improvement in her health.
Dr. Vijay Kumar is very friendly, which creates a comfortable environment for patients to share their concerns. He also explains medical issues in simple terms that non-medical individuals, like us, can understand. Despite being very busy, he doesn't rush the process.
Both my in-laws and I are extremely pleased and impressed with the doctor. I would like to express our gratitude on their behalf as well. :)

Doctors should start focussing on addressing the patient issues than worried about how much they can make on the tests they write. He was super non friendly, made us wait for hours and finally did so much we had to pick a different pulmonologist
I would never recommend him to anyone let alone me going there for anything

My father Venkata Reddy B was suffering from severe cough since 6 months. Visited Apollo Jubilee hills and one of our family friend referred Dr. Vijay Kumar Chennamchetty. We met him and he was a real expert. He identified the cause almost at a glance and asked to undergo few tests, he then prescribed medicines for a month. That's all. Everything came under control. Seems to be simple description but I was the real visual evidence of my father suffering and we have met several other doctors before consulting Dr.Vijay. He was simply superb at this work and a real pioneer in reducing the painful severe cough.
Thank you sir!
