I’m Vighan, a cricketer, and I struggled with groin pain for 16 years. After trying multiple doctors and treatments with no results, I finally met Dr. Apurva. Her precise assessment, fast-bowling–specific training, and on-field rehab helped me recover completely within three months. I’m now pain-free and back to bowling without any difficulty. Truly grateful for her expertise.
