Trusted by Families Across The World

Real stories of hope, recovery, and progress shared by parents whose children received specialized care and therapy support at ICD, New Delhi.

★★★★★
Our son Akshit was referred to ICD, New Delhi by one of our family friends. After visiting many doctors without proper guidance, we were frustrated and hesitant. But our experience at ICD completely changed our journey. Dr. Alam explained our child’s condition in detail and started an early intervention program including physiotherapy, occupational therapy, communication enhancement, and cognitive behavioral therapy. Within just 3 months of intensive therapy, Akshit started sitting without support, attempting to creep on his abdomen, and showing remarkable improvement in hand functions.

Before coming to ICD, New Delhi, we visited multiple countries for treatment but most consultants gave us very little hope regarding our daughter Maryam. At ICD, Dr. Alam suggested Botox therapy for lower limb spasticity. The results were truly amazing. Just 15 days after the injection, Maryam started walking with a walker. After three months of post-Botox therapy, she became functionally independent with tripod walking. We no longer need to carry her or use a wheelchair. We sincerely thank Dr. Mansoor Alam, Dr. Vipul Shandilya, and the entire ICD team.

Three months back, when we arrived in India, our child Mazin was unable to stand properly. Today, he can walk a few steps independently and is highly functional with walker and tripod walking. We have visited several countries including England, but we never witnessed such dedication, therapy quality, and compassionate care. ICD gave us confidence, hope, and visible progress in our child’s life.

When we first came to ICD, our son did not even have proper head control. Dr. M Alam clearly explained the condition and enrolled us in the parent training and early intervention program. After four months of therapy, our child started walking independently, speaking a few words, and showing incredible improvement. ICD treated our child like their own child. We are extremely thankful to Dr. Nimisha Saxena and the entire rehabilitation team.

★★★★★
ICD is extremely well equipped for developmental therapies and rehabilitation programs. The therapists and faculty members are highly experienced, supportive, and genuinely dedicated toward children. We wish ICD could open a branch in Srinagar as such advanced developmental facilities are very limited there. We thank the entire ICD team for their guidance and support.
