About US

My child was born with a congenital issue in his heart called “Ventricular Septal Defect.” Our pediatrician identified the issue when he was 2 months old and advised us to consult a pediatric cardiologist. We visited several hospitals (Apollo, etc.), but most seemed primarily interested in money and suggested immediate surgery.

Fortunately, in the end, we went to the “Kanchi Kamakoti Child Trust Hospital-Chennai” and consulted Dr. Gnanasambandam Sir. After his analysis, he confirmed that open-heart surgery is necessary and needs to be done between the age of 3 to 6 months old of child to avoid complications. Dr.  Gnanasambandam Sir clearly explained our baby's condition and gave us confidence about the surgery and the procedure.

Following the doctor's advice, we decided to go ahead with the surgery in the 5th month of our baby and confirmed the dates with the surgeons.

Before sending my child to the operating theatre, we had mixed emotions. On one hand, we were thinking that his difficulties would end after the surgery; on the other, we were scaring about how the surgery would go for our 4-month-old baby. After 2 hours and 35 minutes, Dr. Prashanth Shah Sir came out from the OT and told us that, now onwards your child is like a normal child. During the surgery time, I cannot even express how tense we were.

Thankfully, the surgery went very smoothly, and my child was safe. I cannot express enough gratitude to Dr. Prashanth Shah sir and his surgical team. Please forgive me if I missed mentioning any doctors' names.

 THANK YOU SO MUCH Again Dr. Prashanth Shah Sir, Dr. Gnanasambandam Sir, Dr. Harun Ramaswami Sir, and the entire surgical team, for making my child normal again.

A special thanks to “Kanchi Kamakoti Child Trust Hospital-Chennai” for bringing together such Top-class Doctors."

My 13-year-old daughter suffered from Paraoverian Cyst. Since my daughter is still a child, we were concerned about her laparoscopy procedure, but Dr. Priya Ramachandran handled everything smoothly and she is now doing well.

Child Trust Hospital needs no review as it is easily the most trusted and popular hospital for kids in Chennai. It is very professionally managed but not at high cost when compared to private hospital. I was referred to this hospital by Dr. S. Balasubramanian (Senior Pediatrician) twice. First time five years back when my daughter had Tonsilitis, Dr. Balakumar (Senior ENT surgeon) performed Tonsillectomy operation and was discharged same day. Second time this year, when my daughter had Kawasaki disease (which was rare disease), Dr. S. Balasubramanian treated her and she has recovered fully. The diagnosis and treatment was timely as it was hard to detect and not common. Dr. SBS and the duty doctors were excellent ensuring round the clock monitoring and quick change in course as required. Nurses were also very friendly and professional in their handling. Regarding the hospital infrastructure, it is situated in Nungambakkam in a little congested road. The building is bit old but maintained well with continuous cleaning. There are shared rooms to single to deluxe rooms. The rooms are very comfortable and well maintained, though I would set your expectation to not compare with 5 star private hospitals. There is parking constraint for 4 wheelers opposite to the hospital and they have added a parking place but is like 0.5 KM away. The hospital also has medical research foundation with courses for Medical post graduated specialising in Pediatric specialisations which has produced generations of pediatricians from this hospital. With leading specialists, friendly staff, facilities like Neonatal ICUs, labs, vaccination, 24 hour pharmacy and insurance desk, the hospital provides specialised child care in single roof. I thank the hospital doctors, nurses and the administration for your yeomen service and highly recommend it.

Met Dr. Mahesh, Neurologist here. He was calm and kind and patient to answer all questions we had and gave us good hope about recovery. Many doctors we know also endorsed him as a great doctor when it comes to child neurology.
