He is really a nice doctor and as well as his team. They are very cooperative .Once i brought her here,all my stress went away.We had a beautiful experience. I am completely assured and thankfull to Almighty that my mother is in the right hand .

Moitri Mukherjee

Dr. Ajit Pai sir is a wonderful person. He is one of the best oncologist surgeons with a wealth of knowledge and a gentle demeanor. I am sharing my story on how I felt and how AJit Pai Sir treated us. We live in Chiitagong, Bangladesh. For the past six months, my father in law has been suffering from upper abdominal pain. He began vomiting blood one day. He was then admitted to a local hospital. They confirmed that it was caused by a tumor. However, we were unsure about the optimum treatment for this malignancy. After that, we learned about Dr. AJit Pai Sir. We arrived in Chennai, India. My father-in-law has GIST, or GIST-Proximal Stomach Tumor, and will require surgery. Ajit Pai sir was quite helpful in listening to our concerns and truly responding to them. He instilled confidence in us and encouraged us to overcome our apprehensions about surgery. Dr. Ajit Pai and his team rescued my father in law’s life from a life-threatening circumstance. I genuinely admire him. Dr. Ajit Pai's treatment and consideration are greatly appreciated. Dr. Ajit pai sir's pre- and post-surgery counseling was also crucial in his quick recovery.If anyone is looking for the greatest cancer treatment, I would strongly recommend Dr. Ajit Pai.

Ayon Das

Dr Ajit Pai, is one of the greatest oncological surgeon, a well experienced and soft-spoken person. Myself Manjesh 37yrs old, I had diagnosed with soft tissue sarcoma (Spindle cell and Pleomorphic) 3rd stage cancer. I met doctor in the month of March 2020. As per his advice I underwent surgery on right time, before the Covid -19 lock down started. His personal attentions and kindness made me so comfortably.  During post surgery follow up he and his team did a great job during the pandemic time as well....hats off.

Manjesh C U

Timely right advise of Dr Ajit Pai way back 2015_ undergone Hemi-colectomy at Appollo main Chennài during mid August 2015.Thanks to the team of doctors in particular Dr.Ajit Pai in Apollo. I do remain as standing example that cancer is curable but timly diagnosis & prompt right action is the prerequisite.Today eight years passed post surgery. Need be an elaborate message from my desk, can be seen in vedio episode Apollo "Let us talk health series 11 part two."

We are fortunate to get treatment from Dr. Ajit Sir. I'm being treated for CA on GEJ and Stomach. He uses simple language to explain treatment plan and procedure which gave us enormous confidence and comfort. For me Partial Gastroectomy was done which is extensive surgery but wasnt that hard because of his expertise and care. He done the best of  best in all phases of treatment(during neo adj. therapy, definitive surgery and adj. therapy)

Arun Angamuthu

I had the pleasure of having Dr. Ajit Pai perform my brother's colon cancer surgery at Apollo Proton Cancer Centre in Chennai, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the care he provided. Dr. Pai is extremely knowledgeable and expert, and his ability to instill confidence in his patients is remarkable. He took the time to explain every aspect of the surgery in detail, including the pros and cons, which helped us make an informed decision.The center's tests are top-notch, and the nurses provided exceptional care to my brother, contributing to his fast and successful recovery. It was definitely a wise decision to go to APCC, and I highly recommend Dr. Pai and the team at the center for anyone seeking outstanding care for cancer treatment

Abdullah Saleh

Dr.Ajit Pai and team , very excellent service and treatment decisions. Dr Pai s a very mature, seasoned, knowledgeable and compassionate Doctor with a strong working knowledge of latest technologies and innovations. I had flew to chennai with lots of fear on being diagnosed breast carcinoma. His behavior and his capacity and patience to make me  understand the protocol to be followed for treatment made the problem very simple was really motivating. I thank God for guiding me to take decision to fly to chennai and choose Dr Pai as my surgical oncologist.I strongly recommend him

Rijusmita Sarma Deka

Travelers from Bangladesh will discover Dr. Ajit Pai, an esteemed oncologist surgeon at Apollo Chennai, to be among the finest. Cancer patients will significantly benefit from his profound expertise. Not only is he exceptionally considerate, but he also judiciously refers patients to other specialists if surgery is deemed unnecessary. Overall, Dr. Pai earns a well-deserved perfect 10 out of 10 for his exemplary care and dedication.

Mahbub hossain

In March 2023, I underwent colon cancer surgery under the care of Dr. Ajit Pai, and I am delighted to share my positive experience. I am from Bangladesh and today I have completed my second follow-up visit, and happy to share that I am still doing well, Alhamdulillah.Dr. Pai is very confident and professional in his work and his every footstep reflects skill and energy. Throughout my journey, Dr. Pai listened to my concerns very attentively with patience and sympathy.Following consultation with him, someone will feel positive and confident.I would recommend Dr. Ajit Pai to anyone who is seeking for an experienced surgical oncologist.  He is a big name in this field.

Abdullah sharif

One of the finest GI oncology Surgeons with hands on experience in Robotics. He is trained in one of the top medical schools specializing in robotics surgery alongside oncology. His surgical techniques are top notch, for instance, he makes sure he just not remove the cancer tumor but also meticulously dissect out the marginal tissues and takes out far nodes for biopsy, so that any distant carcinoma are taken care as well. Truly knowledgeable in his field. Needless to say- All his fellow surgeons and his team do an amazing work as well. Most importantly he does explain and patiently listens to his patients and their attenders and solve all their queries.

When in doubt for colon/ colorectal/ GI carcinoma.. we highly recommend Dr. Ajit Pai. I also recommend to watch his videos to educate yourself as a patient or as a caretaker to fight this relentless disease. He is truly a gem to come back to work in our Motherland and serve for patients fighting against cancer. We thank Dr. Ajit Pai and his team for their excellent service.

অসাধারণ সার্ভিস এই ইনফরমেশন সেন্টারের,বিশেষত তাদের ব্যাবহার অনেক সুন্দর। যারা অসুস্থ থাকেন তারা সর্বদা দুশ্চিন্তায় থাকেন। সে সময় যদি কেউ হাসি মুখে পাশে থাকেন তার থেকে আনন্দের বোধকরি কিছু হয় না। apollo information centre তেমনই একটি প্রতিষ্ঠান। তাছাড়া অনলাইনে ডাক্তরদের সাথে রোগী দেখানোর সময় তারা যে ভাবে সাহায্য করেন, নিজেরা প্যানেলে থেকে ভাষাগত ভাবে হেল্প করেন, বাস্তবিক সেটা প্রশংসার দাবিদার। বিশেষত ইসরাত জাহান আপু টেলিমেডিসিন পরিসেবা গ্রহণের সময় যে ভাবে হেল্প করেন,রোগীর প্রতিটি কথা ইংরেজিতে অনুবাদ করে ডাক্তারকে বলেন,আবার ডাক্তার সাহেবের কথা বাংলায় বুঝিয়ে দেন।সেটা এক কথায় অসাধারণ।তারপর, দ্রুত রোগীদের কাছে প্রেসকিপশন পাঠানোর ব্যাবস্থা করেন।এগুলা সম্পূর্ণ আন্তরিকতার পরিচয় বহন করে। আমি এই প্রতিষ্ঠানের সমৃদ্ধি কামনা করি।
