USA Patient’s Experience about Hernia Surgery Delhi India

Carol Mitchell a USA patient describes about her Hernia Surgery and her stay in Delhi India.

” Carol Mitchell who came to India for the Hernia Surgery in Delhi. She is a resident of United Kingdom. She was treated by the team of Centre for Hernia Support. I am so thankful to have planned my hernia surgery with Dheeraj Bojwani and Indian Health Guru Consultants. Infact I was a bit hesitant initially to travel to India for this and I asked so many questions to Dheeraj. But he was always there for me, answering all my queries and helping me every time. He came to meet me at the Hospital and checked out all the services being provided to me. I was very overwhelmed from the long flight when I reached India, but gradually as things settled down I knew this was the righteous decision. The people I have been treated by, the nursing staff, the domestic staff, everybody without exception has been delightful and I am very conscious of their efforts to make my stay a happy one.   My outcome was wonderful and much better than my best expectation. When I return to the USA, when I have the opportunity, I will recommend Indian Health Guru Consultants to everyone seeking Hernia surgery in India.

England Patient’s Experience about Incisional Hernia Surgery Hyderabad India

Harold Martinn England patient describes about his Hernia Surgery and his stay in Hyderabad India. 

“I was admitted to my local NHS Hospital for a bowel resection. I don’t know who did it as they were short of consultants and mine was off sick. I think the surgeon was just temporary. Anyway I am quite big, diabetic and my chest can be a problem too. They made a huge incision right down the middle of my abdomen. Afterwards the recovery was bad, the wound was infected. I was in hospital for 5 weeks and even then I had an infection when I went out, it took weeks to settle with a nurse coming in 3 days a week. Two months later a huge rupture developed that took over the whole of my stomach. I couldn’t bend over and my movement was severely restricted. The first consultant I saw said it was too big to fix. Then I started my research on the Internet where I came across Indian Health Guru Consultant’s website in India. I was operated using a new technique where the mesh is put under the muscle so that there is less chance of infection and ulceration of the skin over the mesh. The anaesthetist did an epidural so the pain was blocked and it helped me to get my chest clear afterwards. I was looked after on the high dependency unit with my own nurse all the time. It was such a contrast to the first operation. The hernia repair operation has been a great success and I know this is the best chance of no recurrence. I feel so well now that I have a new lease of life. I want to thank Dr Dheeraj Bojwani & Indian Health Guru Consultant’s staff for their skill and professionalism ”

 India is fast emerging as one of the most sought after global health destinations. It has outgrown its mentors in their own feat. Medical tourism in India is no longer confined to people combining their Hernia Surgery with quick visits to the Taj Mahal .Low cost treatment is the main appeal that pulls medical tourists to India, but this is no longer the only attraction. India boasts of a very strong medical infrastructure that provides state-of-the-art international standard services to several patients who throng India for an attractive amalgamation of cost-effective and world-class treatment. The costs incurred in medical treatments here in India are almost one-tenth of what patients have to spend in most of the western countries.  Most of the medical tourists find the infrastructure and technology at par with that in USA, ENGLAND and Europe. The good facilities provided in India are certainly beneficial but also the skyrocketing medical costs and long waiting lists to get treated by the specialists in the western countries are helping Indian medical tourism industry.

Trevor Evans from New Jersey to India for Radical Prostectomy Surgery Delhi India

Trevor Evans a Patient from New Jersey Shares his experience of Radical Prostectomy Surgery in Delhi India. 

“I started to develop symptoms in when I was 48 years old. I went to my primary care physician in New Jersey, who found nothing. My wife and I selected an urologist with whom she felt comfortable. The urologist performed a digital rectal exam and a biopsy. The results came back positive. I had prostate cancer with a one percent chance of survival and a life expectancy of one year. Then a colleague of mine recommended going for Radical Prostectomy Surgery through Indian Health Guru Consultants In India. After exchanging little e-mail with Dr Dheeraj Bojwani we decided to come to India for my Radical Prostectomy Surgery. I came to India and got admitted. The facilities provided by the hospital are appreciable. Doctors, Nurses and other staff are very cordial in discharging their responsibilities and it is a real consolation for a patient like me who has come from a foreign country. Special mention should be made of the Guest Relation Officer of Indian Health Guru Consultants who impressed me very much with their friendly attitude. They were very prompt in providing the facilities I requested from them. Dr Dheeraj Bojwani’s superb communication skill will be an asset to this institution. Thank you all the staff members of Indian Health Guru Consultants.”

Traveling India for Radical Prostectomy Surgery can give you access to top quality health care quickly and cheaply. India has one of the world’s most extensive health care systems supported by a long tradition of health and medicine dating back to Ayurveda. Indian doctors routinely post-graduate train at American and European university hospitals and they are the backbone of both the National Health Service in the United Kingdom and hospitals in the United States. Last year alone 150,000 patients visited India for medical treatment. The came from countries around the world: USA, Canada, UK, Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, the Middle East, Sri Lanka, Mauritius, the Central Asian Republics. Radical Prostectomy Surgery in India is safe, expert and supported by high quality equipment and well-trained nursing and ancillary staff. The hospitals in India are staffed with specialists who also act as consultants in the West. Many are world-recognized experts. These are very highly experienced surgeons and they reassure that surgery in India is safe, professional and expert. There is no doubt that the Indian medical industry’s main appeal is low-cost treatment. Most estimates claim treatment costs in India start at around a tenth of the price of comparable treatment in America or Britain. A large draw to medical tourism is the convenience in comparison to that of other countries. Some countries that operate from a public health-care system are so taxed that it can take a considerable amount of time, sometimes even years, to get needed medical care. The time spent waiting for a procedure, such as a hip replacement, can be a year or more in Britain and Canada; however, in India, a patient could feasibly have an operation the day after their arrival.

Travel to India for your Laparoscopic Gall Bladder surgery

What is the Gall Bladder?

The Gall Bladder is a pear-shaped sac that rests beneath the right side of the liver. Its main purpose it to collect and concentrate a digestive agent (bile) produced by the liver. Bile is released from the Gall Bladder and travels through the cystic and common bile ducts (narrow tubular channels) to the small intestine. 

The Laparoscopic Gall Bladder removal surgery is usually done to treat the following conditions:

  • Gall Bladder disease
    • Gallstones
    • Infection or inflammation (cholecystitis)
    • Gall Bladder cancer
  • Biliary dyskinesia (abnormal Gall Bladder function)

What preparation is required in Laparoscopic Gall Bladder Surgery?

The following includes typical events that may occur prior to laparoscopic surgery; however, since each patient and surgeon is unique, what will actually occur may be different:

 ·    Preoperative preparation includes blood work, medical evaluation, chest x-ray and an EKG depending on your age and medical condition.

·    After the surgeon reviews with the potential risks and benefits of the operation, patient will need to provide written consent for surgery.

·    Surgeon may request that patient should completely empty his colon and cleanse his intestines prior to surgery. Patient may be requested to drink clear liquids, only, for one or several days prior to surgery.

·    It is recommended that to shower the night before or morning of the operation.

·    After midnight the night before the operation, patient should not eat or drink anything except medications that surgeon has told which are permissible to take with a sip of water the morning of surgery.

·    Drugs such as aspirin, blood thinners, anti-inflammatory medications (arthritis medications) and Vitamin E will need to be stopped temporarily for several days to a week prior to surgery.

·    Diet medication should not be used for the two weeks prior to surgery.

How well does Laparoscopic Gall Bladder Surgery Work:

 Laparoscopic Gall Bladder surgery is safe and effective. Surgery gets rid of gallstones located in the Gall Bladder. It does not remove stones in the common bile duct. Gallstones can form in the common bile duct years after the Gall Bladder is removed, although this is not common.

 Who is the candiddate for Laparoscopic Gall Bladder Surgery:

Since the advent of laparoscopic cholecystectomy, this procedure has become the gold-standard for Gall Bladder removal. Most patients with symptomatic gallstones are candidates for laparoscopic cholecystectomy, if they are able to tolerate general anesthesia and have no serious cardiopulmonary diseases or other coexisting conditions that preclude operation.

Some patients with very serious complications from Gall Bladder disease may not be eligible for laparoscopic Gall Bladder removal. In addition, patients in the third trimester of pregnancy should not usually undergo laparoscopic cholecystectomy, because of risk of damage to the uterus during the procedure.

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy in the first trimester of pregnancy remains controversial because of the unknown effects of carbon dioxide on the developing fetus.

Who shouldn’t have Laparoscopic Gall Bladder Surgery?

If a person had surgery around his Gall Bladder before, if he tend to bleed a lot, or if he has any problem that would make it hard for doctor to see his Gall Bladder, an open surgery may be better for him. Doctor will decide which type of surgery is appropriate

The Laparoscopic Gall Bladder Surgery Procedure

Gall Bladder removal surgery is called for when gallstones have formed, blocking the flow of bile and leading to attacks that can cause severe pain and discomfort. With the invention of the laparoscopic procedure, the surgery can now be performed through several small openings, can be completed in one to three hours, and has a much shorter recovery time. During a laparoscopic Gall Bladder surgery, a tube carrying a video camera is inserted through an incision in the navel. The surgery is then performed under the guidance of this camera. Tiny instruments are used to cut and clip the ducts and arteries attached to the Gall Bladder and to remove the Gall Bladder from the body.

What to expect after Laparoscopic Gall Bladder Surgery?

Gall Bladder removal is a major abdominal operation and a certain amount of postoperative pain occurs. Nausea and vomiting are not uncommon. Once liquids or a diet is tolerated, patients leave the hospital the same day or day following the laparoscopic Gall Bladder surgery. Activity is dependent on how the patient feels. Walking is encouraged. Patients can remove the dressings and shower the day after the operation. Patients will probably be able to return to normal activities within a week’s time, including driving, walking up stairs, light lifting and working. In general, recovery should be progressive, once the patient is at home. The onset of fever, yellow skin or eyes, worsening abdominal pain, distention, persistent nausea or vomiting, or drainage from the incision are indications that a complication may occur. Most patients who have a laparoscopic Gall Bladder removal go home from the hospital the day after surgery. Some may even go home the same day the operation is performed. Most patients can return to work within seven days following the laparoscopic procedure depending on the nature of your job. Patients with administrative or desk jobs usually return in a few days while those involved in manual labor or heavy lifting may require a bit more time. Patients undergoing the open procedure usually resume normal activities in four to six weeks.

What are the benefits of Laparoscopic Gall Bladder Surgery?

With laparoscopic cholecystectomy, you may return to work more quickly, have less pain after surgery, have a shorter hospital stay, and have a shorter recovery time. Unlike traditional surgery, laparoscopic surgery to remove the Gall Bladder can be done without cutting the muscles of your abdomen. The incision is also much smaller. With laparoscopic cholecystectomy; you probably will only have to stay in the hospital overnight. With open cholecystectomy, you would need to stay in the hospital for about 5 days. Because the incisions are smaller with laparoscopic cholecystectomy, there isn’t as much pain after this operation as after open cholecystectomy.Most patients do very well and recover rapidly. For laparoscopic Gall Bladder surgery, your hospital stay is likely to be shorter, and you may be home within 24 hours. Your recovery time is likely to be shorter as well.
