What makes Dr Mallikarjun special is that he counsels the entire family not just the child. When my daughter was diagnosed with a genetic condition he sat with us and explained the implications for future pregnancies and other family members. That broader perspective was something we did not get anywhere else. Very grateful.
My son had repeated episodes of vomiting and weakness and no doctor could figure out why. Dr Mallikarjun suspected a metabolic disorder and ordered the right genetic tests. The diagnosis was confirmed and treatment started. His clinical eye for rare conditions is exceptional. Highly recommend him for any complex child health mystery.

I had three miscarriages and was completely broken emotionally. My gynaecologist referred me to Dr Mallikarjun for genetic evaluation. He was the first doctor who spoke to me and my husband with real empathy. He explained the genetic reasons behind our losses and guided us on preconception counselling. We are now expecting again and feel much more informed and hopeful.
My daughter was not growing at the same pace as other children her age. We visited Dr Mallikarjun at Aster CMI after hearing good reviews. He did a very detailed assessment and explained skeletal dysplasia in very simple language. He speaks multiple languages and made my mother comfortable by explaining in Kannada. Very dependable paediatric geneticist in Bangalore.
