Experiences of foreign nationals coming to India for different medical procedures

Nigerian patient total cystectomy at Delhi in India

This is Abu Damas from Nigeria. I came to India for surgeons of total cystectomy at hospitals of Delhi through INDIANHEALTHGURU, a medical tourism company which deals with international patients for surgeries at affordable costs. I am a person from the country where the medical infrastructure is so poor.  So my friend suggested me about this medical consultancy as one of his friend came to India for urosurgery. I contacted to Mr. Dheeraj Bojwani and send him a mail related to my surgery. He was so kind that he replied all mails within an hour. He also arranged my visa, passport, hotel stay etc. I don’t have to suffer much problem during my medical trip. My doctor told me total cystectomy, is surgical removal of all or part of the urinary bladder. It is also known as radical cystectomy is surgical is the removal of the entire bladder, nearby lymph nodes (lymphadenectomy), part of the urethra, and nearby organs that may have been invaded by the cancer cells. In men, the nearby organs that are removed are the prostate, the seminal vesicles, and part of the vas deferens. In women, the cervix, the uterus, the ovaries, the fallopian tubes, and part of the vagina are also removed. The ureters are disconnected from the bladder and urinary diversion is created. If you have bladder cancer that has invaded the muscle layer and is locally invasive or if your cancer has come back after the initial treatment then you are an ideal candidate for total cystectomy.

 

After having whole discussion I fly to India for surgeons of total cystectomy at hospitals of Delhi. There I met my surgeon. He explained the whole procedure. My surgery was performed under general anesthesia and taken about 2 – 3 hours. An incision was made across the lower abdomen; the ureters are cut from the bladder, freeing it for removal. The bladder and associated organs i.e. prostate gland, seminal vesicles, vas deferens in men and the uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries, and part of the vagina in women. A method of urinary diversion was created to remove the urine after this surgery. The tissues and nerves around the prostate and bladder are dissected very carefully to ensure not to damage them during the procedure. However, the nerves controlling erection of penis may be damaged during the surgery. In women, your surgeon will reconstruct your vagina after the surgery. The surgery was performed well.

 

Many people from the urbanized world come to India for surgeons of total cystectomy at hospitals of Delhi and the upgrading promised by yoga and Ayurvedic massage, but few consider it a target for hip substitute or brain surgical procedure. However, a nice blend of top-class medical expertise at attractive prices is helping a rising number of Indian corporate hospitals attract foreign patients, including from developed nations such as the UK and the US. Things are going to change radically in favor of India, particularly in view of the high eminence expertise of medical professionals, backed by the fast improving tools and nursing amenities, and above all, the cost-effectiveness of the pack up. India is the land to travel to, a sanctuary of tourism escapade, and a civilization to tour through. Tourists come to India for its affluence of sights, cultural excitement, and diversity of landscape and in search of that extraordinary something, an extra punch that only India promises and delivers. My tour for surgeons of total cystectomy at hospitals of Delhi in India was awesome!!!!
