Dr. D. Arun Prasad is a highly specialised Pediatric Surgeon at Dr. Mehta’s Hospitals, Chennai, holding an MCh in Paediatric Surgery along with a dedicated Fellowship in Paediatric Urology — a combination that positions him as one of Chennai’s comprehensive specialists in both paediatric surgery and paediatric urological care. His fellowship in Paediatric Urology reflects advanced, focused training beyond the MCh level, ensuring expertise in the full spectrum of urological anomalies and reconstructive procedures in children.
Dr. Arun Prasad’s practice spans five key areas — general paediatric surgery, paediatric urology, neonatal surgery, paediatric trauma care, and laparoscopic paediatric surgery. This breadth makes him a comprehensive surgical resource for children requiring care across multiple paediatric surgical subspecialties. His expertise in laparoscopic surgery ensures that whenever clinically appropriate, children benefit from minimally invasive keyhole techniques — leading to less pain, faster recovery, and better cosmetic outcomes.
Available from 4:00 PM Monday through Saturday at Dr. Mehta’s Hospitals on prior appointment, Dr. Arun Prasad offers focused, personalised surgical consultations for families across Chennai. His afternoon availability is particularly convenient for families who need consultations after school or work hours, making expert paediatric surgical care accessible without disruption to daily routines.
