Recommendations

• Dr.Kumar was simply the best; he was confident in his diagnosis and treated his patients with so much care and respect. He prevented an unnecessary surgery for my slip discs and got me walking and standing straight with the right rest, medication, traction along with lifestyle advices. Thank you & God bless you, Doc !

• We got a recommendation from one of the doctor in Malaysia that dr. Kumar is the best doctor in neurosurgery. And later on we agreed that yes, he is the best. 3 times operation of my nephew (Imanuel) who has brain tumor was successfully done. We really grateful for his thoughtfulness, caring & understanding in our difficult time. He is more than a doctor for Imanuel. He is a doctor not only with skill but also with heart.

• I was fortunate and privileged enough to have Dr. Kumar as my surgeon when I was diagnosed with a brain tumour. He has a point blank frankness yet a dedicated streak. I was especially touched at his compassion and genuine care for his patients. He also has this knack for explaining details in great depth for patients to understand. Even during follow up consultations, he has been nothing short of a damn good surgeon and person.
