Pediatric Urology
Dr. S. Vijay Raj is a highly qualified Paediatric and Neonatal Laparoscopic Surgeon and Paediatric Urologist at Dr. Mehta’s Hospitals, Chennai, holding an MCh in Paediatric Surgery, along with MRCS (Member of the Royal College of Surgeons), an internationally recognised surgical qualification that reflects training benchmarked against British surgical standards. This combination of MCh and MRCS credentials places Dr. Vijay Raj among Chennai’s paediatric surgeons with both nationally and internationally validated surgical expertise.
A defining hallmark of Dr. Vijay Raj’s practice is his commitment to minimally invasive surgery, applying laparoscopic and keyhole techniques across neonatal surgery, paediatric urology, and gastrointestinal surgery wherever clinically appropriate. Minimally invasive surgery in children means smaller incisions, significantly less post-operative pain, faster return to normal activity, shorter hospital stays, and superior cosmetic outcomes, benefits that matter enormously for growing children and their families.
His particular expertise in Hypospadias Surgery further reflects a high level of subspecialty urological training. Hypospadias repair is one of the most technically demanding procedures in paediatric urology, requiring precision, experience, and meticulous surgical technique to achieve both functional and cosmetic success. Available Monday through Saturday by appointment at Dr. Mehta’s Hospitals, Dr. Vijay Raj offers focused, personalised surgical consultations for families across Chennai.

A Heartfelt Thank You to the NICU Team at Dr. Mehta's Hospital, Chetpet There are moments in life when words feel too small for the gratitude you carry — this is one of those moments for our family. Our premature twin boys were held in the loving care of the NICU team. Ours was a journey that carried both joy and heartbreak — one of our precious sons became our angel along the way, and he remains forever in our hearts. Through it all, Dr. Arun Krishnan and the duty doctors — Dr. Sumanth, Dr. Parthiban, Dr. Avishek, Dr. Vijay, Dr. Aarthi, and Dr. Punitha — surrounded our boys with such tenderness, skill, and honesty. Our heartfelt thanks also to the staff nurses who cared for them like their own — Juliana, Beena Saji, Chithra, Shanmuga, Riya, Preethi, Roshini, Anju, Hemavathi, Sowbakiya, Soundarya, Agasri, Priyanka, Yogalakshmi, Deepika, and Lissa — and to the many other hands and hearts whose names we may not have caught, but whose faces and kindness we will never forget. It is because of their unwavering care that we brought our son home, safe and thriving. We are deeply, forever grateful to this team. Thank you for giving our son his first, hardest-won victory — and for giving us back our peace.Posted on Google Saravanan VidhyaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
