Dr. Apoorva Makan Madam is an excellent pediatric surgeon. My 4.9-year-old daughter had an infected preauricular sinus. Madam explained everything very clearly and reassured us that there was no need to worry, as it could be completely treated with surgery. Whenever I messaged her, she responded immediately and guided us with great patience and care. The surgery was successful, and my daughter received the best possible treatment. For us, Dr. Apoorva Makan is like God. She took exceptional care of my daughter and supported us throughout the entire journey. Thank you so much, Madam, for your kindness, dedication, and support.
