Ronald Lewis from California to India for Incisional Hernia Surgery Calcutta India

Ronald Lewis a Patient from California Shares his experience of Incisional Hernia Surgery in Calcutta India.

 “Six years ago I had an open gallbladder removal surgery at one of the local hospitals in USA. In 2007 I noticed a bulge in the incision. I had an Incisional hernia caused by the incision where I had my surgery. When I consulted the surgeon in California, I was told to wait for one year for hernia repair surgery. This was too long a wait, so my wife started looking for options in India. She was suggested about the Indian Health Guru Consultants by one of her friends; as she had previously got her surgery in India through them. We went on to find out what they would suggest. After a preliminary email and a telephonic talk, we made up our minds to travel to India. The surgeon suggested having the hernia repaired laparoscopically; he felt it was better doing it that way. Within two weeks of out first contact we were in India. We arrived in Mumbai-India, checked through the immigration and immediately saw a man holding our name and the placard of Indian Health Guru Consultants. We were taken to a deluxe car that took us to the hospital about half hours drive from the airport. I had a laparoscopic repair of the Incisional hernia with an excellent result. Everything worked out well. I had a very good impression of the doctors and nurses at the Hospital. It went well, better than I would have expected. I spent three nights in the hospital, and there were no problems. I was able to walk the whole time. I have no problems now; I feel fine.”

Traveling India for Incisional Hernia 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. Incisional Hernia 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.

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.
