Editor from Nigeria Gets Her Retinal Detachment Surgery in India


Hi, I am Mrs. Kwanita Durodola, an editor from Nigeria. I visited India to undergo surgery for retinal detachment with the assistance of a leading healthcare group in India. One day, while packing the lunch for my husband, I noticed a flash and it made me a little sick for a second, kind of nauseous. But it quickly went away and I just paid no attention to it. In the evening again, my eye felt a little strange. I kept seeing the flashes in the lower right of my left eye and this was the beginning to get a little blurry spot in that same area. Later on, it really messed with my vision. I went for a checkup at a local hospital, and the doctor referred me to an eye specialist. He diagnosed me with retinal detachment and recommended me to undergo the surgery. I was quite worried and anxious. I didn’t want to undergo my surgery in my country due to lack of medical facilities and so went online searching for a high quality medical treatment treatment.


I came to a website of a leading Indian healthcare consultant. After going through the information, I contacted them with my query. I received a call from them the next day. They explained me about the surgery and the entire procedure to get my retina detachment surgery in India. After a long discussion with them over the phone and the mails from them with the details of the surgery, surgeons and the hospitals, I gave them my confirmation to fly down to India for the surgery. My husband accompanied me through my medical journey in India. They assisted us with the medical visa, travel, stay and food arrangements.

A pleasant official gave us a warm welcome at the airport. We were taken to the hospital, where I met the surgeon. I was impressed with the knowledge of the surgeon and his kindness. He explained me about the surgery and this reduced my anxiety. The nurses were amazing and caring. My surgery went smoothly. I want to thank everyone- surgeons, his staff and the entire team of healthcare consultants for all their support and care, I received during my stay in India. I would highly recommend anyone searching for any kind of surgery to get it fixed through this healthcare consultant in India.

Thanking You,
Mrs. Kwanita Durodola,

Businessman from Nigeria Undergoes Liver Enlargement Treatment in India



Mrs. Claire Ajunwa from Nigeria came to India for her husband Mr. Joseph’s liver enlargement treatment. She share’s about their medical journey to India. “I am Mrs. Claire Ajunwa from Nigeria. I recently came to India for my husband’s liver enlargement treatment. I am glad with the kind of medical services rendered by our medical travel partner in India. Indeed, they delivered the best possible outcome. Me and my hubby, we both are highly obliged to these people who helped with treatment and alleviated his pain through the liver enlargement treatment. Initially, we were running from pillar to post for getting his treatment done in our native country, but we couldn’t find any. My hubby was constantly complaining of abdomen pain for quite some time and consulted a doctor in our hometown. They performed some tests and later disclosed that he has enlarged liver that requires treatment to cure all his liver problems. He suggested us some places for getting his treatment, but after a lot of efforts, we both decided to search for the treatment abroad. I browsed through the internet and found the availability of treatment in Mexico, India and Thailand.

After comparing various factors of the medical facilities, services and the cost of treatment, we concluded to visit India for his liver enlargement treatment. I came in touch with this Indian healthcare consultant and dropped them an email about the possibility of my hubby’s treatment in India. They got back to me on the very same day and asked me for my hubby’s diagnostic reports. This was followed by another email stating in detail about the discussion they had with their top three surgeons who were to handle my hubby’s case. They mailed the doctor’s opinion, hospital name, possible dates available for the liver enlargement treatment in India. After considering the positive aspects of the same, we confirmed them our travel to India.
Soon we booked our tickets and reached for my hubby’s liver enlargement treatment in India. We were received by a cheerful executive and things seemed exactly as promised, good management, nice hospitality, proper coordination, etc. They did everything for us, right from arranging a surgeon to the hospital and our medical visa. My hubby’s treatment commenced on the same day we reached India. The doctor performed a physical exam to estimate the approximate size of the liver and also asked him to undergo ultrasound to confirm the case. Blood tests and biopsy of liver was conducted to make things more clear.

The entire treatment went perfectly well and soon my hubby got a discharge from the hospital and we were given a list of instructions to follow post his treatment. It was indeed a nice experience in India. I am considering this opportunity to thank the Indian medical consultant who managed my hubby’s liver enlargement treatment in India. I would also like to thank the doctor and his medical team for being so supportive and kind. Considering our wonderful experience, I would certainly recommend the medical travel partner in India for anyone out there looking for a cost-effective medical treatment.”

Thank You,
Mrs. Claire Ajunwa,

Hi,

I am Mr. Benson and my wife Noomi; we both work as labourer’s in Nigeria. I am thankful to the team of Indian medical value provider for their extreme support and assistance to get my wife’s gall bladder stone removal surgery in India. We are lucky to have come across this Indian medical value provider; they took her medical reports and provided us with some opinions from the experts. A few months back, my wife was experiencing intense and very severe pain in her upper stomach. Initially she ignored considering it as a normal stomach pain. As the pain was frequent and it started just below her rib cage, she was unable to bear it and then we consulted a local doctor. After going through some tests and examinations, she was diagnosed with gall bladder stones. We did not know when and where she should get her surgery. One of my friends suggested us about your medical value provider in India stating his cousin’s experience of getting her medical treatment in India at low price. We knew that we don’t have good facilities for medical treatment in Nigeria. We asked for the contact details and contacted your medical service provider. The executive helped us understand about the gall bladder stone removal surgery and told us to send our reports. After a detailed discussion with them, finally we decided to schedule the surgery dates with this medical value provider in India.


I was impressed with the Indian medical official who was kind enough to discuss about my wife’s medical condition. He explained me very well about the treatment she’ll be given and comforted that my wife we’ll be alright after undergoing the gall bladder surgery. I am highly obliged by their great services they offered, I mean they assisted us with medical visas and also made arrangements for our stay in India during my wife’s treatment. The surgery was conducted on the 11th of this month and it was successful. The surgeon was pretty kind and the nurses and staff was very friendly. The surgeon told us that she’ll be discharged the next morning and we will be able to fly back to Nigeria the following day. It was a wonderful experience for us. I am thankful to everyone, including the Indian healthcare consultants and the surgeons for their support and care all through the medical tour for my wife’s gall bladder stone removal surgery in India.

What Women Should Know About Cervical Cancer?

A cervical cancer is the most common cancer affecting women under 35 years old. Around 3100 women in the UK are being diagnosed with cervical cancer each year. It is therefore important to know the symptoms for cervical cancer and ensure you go for the regular cervical screenings to catch any early signs of the developing cancer. Here we will know about cervical cancer, the key symptoms, the diagnosis and treatments.


What is Cervical Cancer?

Cervical cancer starts in the neck of the womb called as cervix. It can be used by the HPV (Human Papilloma Virus), a virus that can be passed through sexual contact. With over 100 types of HPV among which many are harmless, certain types can cause abnormal changes to the cells in the cervix that could lead to the development of cancer.

How Does HPV Cause Cervical Cancer?


According to the American Cancer Society, there are more than 150 type of HPV out of which around 12 are high risk types which can increase your risk for cancer. However, even the highest risk HPV’s do not cause cancer since the body is great at fighting off infection and the immune system will typically prevent the virus from doing any serious harm. In small number of women, a high-risk HPV can lead to a persistent infection in the cells of the cervix and if this viral infection lasts for years then it can lead the normal cells on the surface of the cervix to convert into cancerous cells. Our immune system is constantly working to suppress the HPV at the cervix and it is possible for a pap test to detect HPV or an HPV-related abnormality which is not optimally suppressed.

What are the Symptoms of Cervical Cancer?

The symptoms of cervical cancer is bleeding from vagina other than when you are having period i.e. in between your periods or during or after sex. Some women also experience pain or discomfort during sex as well as unpleasant smelling vaginal discharge. If the cancer spreads outside the cervix and affects the surrounding tissues then it can trigger other symptoms such as blood in urine, constipation, swelling in legs, severe pain in your side or back due to swelling of kidneys, loss of bladder control, loss f appetite, lack of energy, etc.
However, it is significant to know that the pre-cancerous cells of the cervix do not have the symptoms and hence it is important to have regular cervical screenings.

Cervical Screening:

A cervical screening or a smear test in in place to test apparently healthy people for the signs that could show cancer is starting to develop. It is a key way to prevent cancer by finding and treating any early signs of changes in the womb. During the test, the nurse or doctor will take the sample of cells from the cervix using a small brush and send it to a laboratory to check for any abnormalities.

Cervical Cancer Treatments


The treatments for a cervical cancer will depend on how far the cancer has spread across the surrounding cells and tissues. Early stage cervical cancer can be treated with surgery while the advance stage cervical cancer will require radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy. The cervical cancer treatment options include the following:

1)    Removing abnormal cells: This is performed by using a cone biopsy or a laser therapy.

2)    A hysterectomy: This type of surgery involves a procedure in which the cervix and womb are removed. This is usually done for more advanced cases of cervical cancer.

3)    A radical trachelectomy: This surgery is used to remove the cervix, surrounding tissue and the upper part of the vagina while the womb is left in place.

Vaccination will help prevent the infection and most of them do not proceed to the cervical cancer. Therefore regular Pap smear screening will allow the early detection for precancerous cells and for initiation of treatment before the cells become cancerous. The first thing to do when you are diagnosed with cervical cancer is to breathe. Do not panic since all stages of cervical cancer can be treated and possibly cured with chemotherapy and radiation and success rates will increase through complete treatment.
