Message by Founder &
Chief Surgeon
Dr Balamourougane
At Kiddie Surgie, I have always believed that every child who comes to us deserves not only expert surgical care but also warmth, reassurance and the feeling of being truly looked after. Paediatric surgery is deeply personal to me. Every anxious parent I meet and every little hand I hold reminds me why this work matters. Our aim is to guide families with clarity, to treat every child as our own and to ensure that even the most complex surgery is handled with kindness and precision. At our paediatric surgery units across Apollo Children’s Hospital and Dr Mehta’s Hospitals, we strive every day to bring comfort, confidence and healing to the children entrusted to us.
