It's a boon to have a statistician for the research work who has clinical knowledge too. She had mastered both. She is easily approachable, patient in hearing our queries and very keen on giving better outcome for us. I wish Dr. Senthilvadivu mam, good luck for the new website launch.

I got to know about Dr Vadivu ma’am from a senior who worked with her in MERF. Throughout the course of my thesis work, ma’am has been helpful as ENT surgeon as well as a statistician. She helped me compile the heaps of raw data i had and with any corrections or additions further needed. Ma’am has always been available for any consultation required and only with her help was i able to complete my thesis. Thank you so much ma’am.

I had my first interaction with Dr Senthil Vadivu in 2019 in Madras ENT Research Foundation (MERF), Chennai, India, when I had joined for my fellowship in cochlear implantation. Apart from being an excellent ENT surgeon, she was the destination for all statistics related doubt clearance for all post graduates and implantation otology fellows. She would guide us with questionnaire preparation, modifications required in the research methodology, correct statistical method to be used, identifying the appropriate journal to publish our articles and she had always held our hands till a paper is published or a thesis is accepted. She would explain in detail in the language we understand why a specific test is being used for a particular statistical analysis. Initially it was all sounding Greek and Latin to me, but gradually I started understanding and admiring her knowledge. I was lazy to publish articles for so many years, but my interaction with her changed my perspective towards research and publications. I have published several original research articles with her and am still counting on her guidance for statistics for my present and upcoming studies. I ask my PG students in my hospital to seek her guidance from the time of inception of thesis synopsis or planning stage of a research project. If an excellent statistician is with us to guide from the beginning of the study, many things are taken care of in the course of the thesis/ study and it is concluded peacefully. Dr Vadivu has been constantly updating her knowledge in research methodology and statistics, and she is a certified biostatistician. I am happy that she has extended her reach through this website. Being a modern medicine practitioner who has a vast medical knowledge, she understands all specialty related studies and suggest statistical reasoning with ease. I strongly recommend her guidance if you are looking for a statistician and wish her all the very best.

Dr Senthil Vadivu maam was like a friend and guide during my Implant fellowship days, and it continued even after I left MERF. So when i hit a dead end last year for one of my research articles, i did not think twice before calling ma'am. She was so prompt in helping me out, infact gave me valuable suggestions and helped me with the statistics part. Her friendly nature and her expertise in the subject makes her an asset.

Dr. Vadivu being a clinician with extensive research experience herself is able to provide insights into the medical research process which others are not. She is an expert at biostatistics and a thorough professional.

Vadivu mam is one of the best teachers I have ever had in my life. I am fortunate to be her student in MERF. She has been a constant inspiration in leaning new things and a constant support during my ongoing post graduation course. Her skill in simplifying complicated topics like skull base anatomy and statistics etc is remarkable. Her help during my thesis work was tremendous. She is not just a very good ENT surgeon and statistutian but a very talented poet as well. All the very best mam

I am a consultant in a private hospital in Cochin now. I had taken Senthil mams help on a couple of projects while I was doing my MCh at AIIMS Rishikesh. Mam is very knowledgeable about the clinical aspect of the statistics, which makes it very easy for us to communicate with her regarding clinical research projects. She is very quick and prompt and it's very easy to work with mam. I hope to collaborate with her on more projects and also would recommend others to approach mam for anything regarding statistics.

Dr.Senthil Vadivu mam is one of the best mentors one could ever get! We are lucky to have you for guiding us through our studies and thesis mam. Mam makes statistics simple and easy for everyone. Rare to see someone like mam who is constantly encouraging and a support system to everyone who comes across her! My wishes and prayers for your future endeavors mam!

During my ENT post graduation training at MERF, Chennai, I had the good fortune of being taught by Dr A. Senthil Vadivu ma'am. I have known her to be an excellent clinician, academic and guide with a keen interest in research and statistical analysis. Statistics is often challenging for students to learn, as it is taught out of context and it can be overwhelming to study the terms and calculations related to it. Owing to her vast knowledge in statistics and her ability to convey this knowledge in a way that is easy for students to assimilate, she has been instrumental in guiding many students and other researchers in their thesis, research work and article publications, particularly in the analysis of their biostatistical data. I am delighted to recommend her services to those who struggle to understand and analyse the concepts in biostatistics and are in need of guidance in achieving reliable study results. I wish Dr Senthil Vadivu ma'am all the very best in this endeavour!

I had great honour of having Dr. Senthil ma'am as my statistician. Ma'am helped me in doing statistics for my thesis. I was very happy after knowing ma'am both clinician and statistician. She made very simple and explained each table nicely. I highly recommend ma'am for helping statistics and journal articles.

I did research in MERF when I was in 2nd year mbbs with the help of Ma’am. I was absolutely clueless when it came to statistics and Ma’am sat me down and explained everything I needed to know starting from the basics and helped me throughout my project. I’m so grateful to Ma’am for all her guidance, she really is the best!

I was fortunate to interact with Dr Senthil Vadivu ma’am when I joined my secondary DNB at MERF. Literally speaking, I was zero with regards to statistics. But not a single time in our interaction she made me feel like that. She used to literally explain each and every analysis for our knowledge. If one is searching for a patient, friendly, knowledgeable, ever listening and a go to statistician, then don’t go beyond her. Such a sweetheart, only I know how much I have pestered her for my thesis analysis. It’s rare to find someone who encourages you to write research papers but she is among the rarest who literally pushes you to write one and publish them. Thank you dear ma’am

Dr Senthil Vadivu is utmost sincere in her work. Had an opportunity to do my thesis under her guidance. She was very professional, easily approachable and highly efficient.

My first interaction with Dr Vadivu when I joined MERF for my post doctoral training in Oct 2014. I acknowledge that it was her push and encouragement that I stepped into research work during my post doctoral training. She was always there to guide me in my research work beginning from the research question till the final statistical analysis. She has been a co-guide to post graduate students and I have seen her explain them the statistics in a very simple and effective way.
