I have known Muthu Kumar for close to 20 years now and he is nothing short of a miracle worker. Back in 2001, I was struggling with a constant knee pain that had lead to limping while walking and difficulty having an active life. I was just 16 at this time. I had met every specialist under the book but nobody could diagnose the issue. My knee X-rays and scans came back pristine. One neurologist even went to suggest that I was probably imagining this. But Muthu was the first person to figure out that this was a pain radiating from my hip. Eventually it was diagnosed as a chondroblastoma and was followed up with 2 surgeries which would basically buy me time till technology caught up. Muthu was there to support me through both and fast tracked my recovery and rehab process and literally got me walking again.
For the next 20 years, he constantly stayed in touch and made sure he intervened whenever my hip would act up. In 2021, things got bad again. I found it difficult to walk and there was a constant grinding pain in the joint. Muthu was the person I went to again. He recommended that it was time to get a Hip joint replacement. I moved to Bangalore for 6 months, so I could get my rehab done with him. Noone else would do 🙂 And I was right to. I am completely normal now, with newly regained mobility and a whole lot of gratitude.
Muthu is not just a physiotherapist. He genuinely takes an interest in your life and makes sure you are consistently making the right choices for an active life. If he says something, listen. Cos this guy always walks the talk.
