We are truly grateful to have Dr. Ragu and his team take care of my wife and baby for the second time. A special thank you to Dr. Ragu and the Delivery Suite nurses — Rashmita, Geetha, Syuhada and Lai — for their professionalism, patience, care and dedication throughout the delivery. Our first experience was more challenging as the placenta was stuck inside the womb and my wife required a procedure in the OT for its removal. The team handled the situation professionally and safely, and we will always be thankful for their care. For our second delivery, by God’s grace, everything went naturally and smoothly. The placenta was delivered naturally, and most importantly, our baby was born safely and healthy. 🙏❤️ We highly appreciate Dr. Ragu’s expertise, calmness and professionalism, as well as the wonderful nursing team who supported my wife throughout the process. Thank you, Dr. Ragu and the entire team, for helping our family through both of these important moments. May God bless you all abundantly! 🙏 Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

It was my 2nd delivery experience here, and just like three years ago, my husband and I were very satisfied with the attentive, friendly, and helpful care provided by the delivery suite team, nursery team, Lavender Ward and Dr Ragu’s clinic. Our gynae, Dr Ragu and the midwives were highly professional, supportive, and reassuring throughout the entire delivery process, making us feel well taken care of every step of the way.
