Dr.Mahesh, one of the best gastro doctor. I went for rectal prolapse which I had from my childhood. At first time itself he diagnosed well and clearly explained about my problem and could be cured only by surgery . He gives us confident by saying good things "it will be cured don't worry" that makes us more comfortable.Once we made decision to do surgery he clearly explained how he is going to perform surgery, method of surgery. Even On surgery day When we enter theatre at that time theatre was engaged in an emergency pediatric surgery by other surgeon so he waited there till it gets completed then he started my surgery. His follow up for pre and post surgery is tremendous. Because of him I started walking next day and recovered fully in 3-4 weeks. He gave doctor's certificate for my sick leave also for work from home to office.Even If I ask do's and dont's he answered patiently for whatever we ask like family doctor. I would definitely recommend Dr. Mahesh sundaram sir

Dr.Mahesh, one of the best doctors I have come across in Chennai. He makes his patient comfortable and at the same time very professional. He had explained us every details about surgery so we can take a decision. I would definitely recommend Dr. Mahesh.

Dr Mahesh had performed a surgery on my mother 4years ago at Global Hospital and recently when my father had to undergo a high risk surgery I couldn't trust or even think of any other doctor but Dr Mahesh.
He is extremely skilled at his job and above all is a doctor with a human touch. He is very soft spoken and polite, gives you his ear patiently and makes one feel at ease explaining the diagnosis and treatment in great detail. He also checks on the patient several weeks post surgery!!
According to me being humane is above being professional and Dr balances both with ease .
I blindly recommend Dr Mahesh and wish him all the success in life . May he continue healing and improving the quality of lives.

He is one of the best Dr who has been motivating and tells facts. He cleared all the myths revolving around gall bladder stone. He did my gall bladder stone operation and I continue to visit him for my thyroid gland consultation... He guides u to one of the best doctors known.. he is like our family doctor for 7 yrs now ..

The best surgeon I have ever met. He listens to the patients cery carefully. In my case, my son has got severe stomach pain for a week. We were relieved only after we met Dr.Mahesh Sundaram. He explains everything to us in a careful manner which will not frighten us. He met us before the surgery and told us everything. His words gave confidence to us. The surgery was critical. Now my son is recovering faster. The best thing about this doctor is, he spends time with patients till they ask all their doubts.

Actually my problem was very critical and I was suffering from pancreatitis for more than 2 years. Then I met Dr.Mahesh Sundaram he explained everything properly about the disease and how to handle and when to do the surgery. I was taken great care from Dr.Mahesh Sundaram before and after the operation. He is a excellent surgeon and more than this he is very calm and have great patience to hear what we say about our problem. Right now I'm perfectly alright. Thanks doctor.

Dr. Mahesh had done the surgery for my mother 3 months ago . It was a bit complicated one and took more hours. My sincere thanks to the doctor. Like many said, he is very transparent and explained the whole process in simple terms (not much of typical doctors terminology). Made us feel comfortable. I am really thankful to the doctor.

My father was suffering from colon tumour around June month, we were panic and afraid for getting treated this issue during covid time. When we consulted Mahesh sir during this time he explained the problem in friendly manner which helped us to proceed surgery in Apollo perungudi hospital. He clearly explained how the surgery is complicated and he did successfully. Now my father has recovered with his guidance.
Best thing about Mahesh his friendly approach to patients and his precautionary steps during covid time. I would recommend him safely during this covid situation

My father had a hernia problem, i take him to Dr.Magesh sundaram, initially i went to him only for his nearby location from my residence, I don't know much about him. But once i visit to his clinic(Progress multispeciality clinic), his treatment and diagnosis was so good. He suggest the best treatment and good hospital for my fathers hernia operation as well. He did hernia operation to my father and now my father is fully cured and back to his routine life within one & half month. Thanks to Dr.magesh for his concern treatment till my father gets completely alright.

Dr.Mahesh is one of the best doctor in the town. I went to him for the hernia laparoscopic surgery. He really took care of everything before performing the surgery. His care before the surgery & after the surgery were really great. He was always available to answer my questions. I would highly recommend Dr.Mahesh. Thanks.

This is the review by S. Kadhirvel. I met with an accident last year and got seriously injured. I got major damages in pancreas, liver and kidney. I got to be treated under Dr. Mahesh Sundaram sir. We got so much of help from him both mentally and physically. I could able to be so confident during medical issues only because of him. His treatment were satisfactory and he pleasurley cared for me. If am here a whole man, maximum of the credits go for him and he deserves it. He wholeheartedly treated me and gave much confidence to get out of my disease. Thank you so much sir and we really mean it.

I visited him once, he gave a patient hearing and said the problem could be solved. I did tests for 1500 rs and afterwards he referred me to another Hospital citing something collateral (Probably tried to help his brethren) and I lost interest after that. The receptionists from other hospital started nagging me.I didn't go to him. Patient will readily pay if problem is solved but trying to fleece without logic isn't professional ethics.
Misha
Avg doc but outstanding ego,arrogance&lack of empathy.everything was fine until I requested d doc for a note allowing rest for 2 days given d extreme abdominal pain which I had since last 3-4days.shockingly this doctor refused n said I don't see any reason for rest after I had told him how much pain I was in n had not eaten or slept properly.he said explain to company but il not give any note.not only is he complete ignorant of how corporates work but seemed to not care at all.he not just refused but seemed to doubt my integrity as if I had come all this way,paid so much money for tests n consultation only to fulfill my agenda of getting a doctor's note.his reasoning was without test results I cannot give any note.can any test result tell how much pain a patient is in and patient has to bear d pain both physical n psychological until doctor gets his test results n continue working in office.he was least concerned if I dropped dead as long as he got his test results.it is doctors like these who give medical practice a bad name.will never visit this arrogant person again n would not even recommend as a last choice.
