American Patient Experience Colorectal Cancer Surgery in India
For the last 33 years I’ve worked hard at my job in Alaska, USA. My wife, has never known me to tire easily but suddenly, I started losing my appetite, my energy disappeared and my weight started dropping off. My wife knew something was wrong! She made a doctor’s appointment for me and the doctor ordered blood work and a CT scan. The CT scan showed cancer, a colonoscopy was done and it was confirmed there was cancer in the colon.
I was devastated. Having no health insurance I could never afford it so I thought I would die. One day my wife and I were attending church services when a friend told us she was treatment in India by Tour2india4health Consultants for her cancer treatment. She had cancer in her blood. My wife and I called Tour2india4health Consultants and the staff there made the travel arrangements to fly us to India from Alaska. A doctor then evaluated me, he told us, “We have a good chance—a 90 percent chance or better—of killing the cancer.” Ninety percent! Not 23 percent. I was aware there were various treatment options available, when surgeon recommended have colon removed minimally invasively through a laparoscopic procedure. I felt very comfortable with my surgeon’s recommendation. I discussed my options with my family and decided to have the minimally invasive procedure.
After I underwent the procedure, I was able to start walking around the hospital the next day. I was very impressed with the care I received at this hospital. The hospital is excellent with world-class facilities. The doctors and staff all spoke English and were very caring. They carried out their work professionally and satisfactorily. I would recommend anyone to go through Tour2india4health Consultants as they organized my treatment in a prompt manner and ensured that the best specialists saw me. The services I received from Tour2india4health Consultants and the hospital were fantastic and value for money.
Thank you,
