Mr. Ronald Walker

“After several months of suffering with Arthritis of my Hip, I was informed I required Hip Resurfacing surgery. As this option was only available in 12 months within the UK. I researched the MIOT Hospitals in chennai, India. I received emails and hospital information prior to leaving UK, which answered all the relevant questions including direct information from Prof. Mohandas himself, giving me extra reassurance.
The Pre-operative and Post-operative care has been very impressive. The staff and personal associated with the hospital have been extremely supportive. I am now looking to return to the UK to lead a normal life with all mobility restored.”

Mr. Warren Miller
Australia
Mr. Warren Miller already had one of his knees operated in Australia; however, he had to wait almost three years for his turn to come.
Mr. Miller wanted to get the other knee operated as well. For the knee operated here, he had a choice between Fortis Healthcare Ltd. and Hospitals in Thailand. The decision of choosing Fortis Healthcare Limited was made because of the orthopedic surgeon and the cost.
Accompanied by his wife, Wendy Miller, they reached Fortis Hospital Noida even though their town was hit by "Cyclone Larry" on their day of departure.
After the operation Mr. Miller said "Dr. Ashok Rajgopal had done a marvelous job and I have little pain and excellent recovery. Within a week I'm planning a trip to see the Taj Mahal in Agra"
The Physiotherapist have speeded up my recovery. The resident doctors were regular in their visits and medicines were on time. Everyone was so friendly and helpful" he said. Mr Miller was amazed that within a week he was able to walk properly.

I am from Sri Lanka, getting my treatment done under Dr. Upendra Kaul, the cardiologist.
I came to India and got admitted in Fortis Healthcare, Noida on 31st August, 2005. 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 who impressed me very much with her friendly attitude. She was very prompt in providing the facilities I requested from her. Her superb communication skill will be an asset to this institution.
Orthopedic
Ms. Jeniffer V from New Hampshire, USA talks about her excellent experience after a complex Simultaneous Bilateral Knee Joint Replacement Surgery at Wockhardt Hospital, Bangalore. Very Very few surgeons across the world are accomplished to conduct a total knee replacement surgery for both knees in one surgery with good clinical outcomes. This is done routinely at Wockhardt Hospitals at Bangalore by employing advanced technique by highly experienced surgeons; Bilateral Simultaneous Knee Replacement greatly reduces the pain, cost and recovery period associated with two surgeries for both knees.
Amongst the few hospitals in Asia equipped with most advanced Computer navigation and Minimal Access Surgery facilities to perform complex Knee, Hip and Shoulder joint replacement and Resurfacing Surgeries. Wockhardt Hospitals has a vastly experienced team of Orthopedic Surgeons and Rehabilitation Physiotherapy specialists and backed by the most comprehensive neuro-diagnostic and imaging facilities. Wockhardt Hospitals in Bangalore India is now the first choice for non-insured self-paying US patients. Few hospitals even in US can match the Orthopedic, Cardiac, Neuro and Minimal Access surgical services at this Indian hospital that has latest in diagnostic equipment such as EEG, ENMG, Video-monitoring, 1.5 Tesla MRI and 64-Slice CT Scan

My stay at Wockhardt Hospital has been very different as compared to stay in an English hospital.Overall it has been very positive.
The surgeon Dr.Gautam Zaveri has produced excellent results. He has been very approachable and answered every question entirely to my satisfaction.
The nursing staff have been very caring throughout my stay. Special metion must be made of Ritu (Physiotherapist) who has encouraged and motivated me 100%. Dr. Dhaval and Mr.Anil have been very helpful in making arrangements all through my stay in hospital.

How do you express gratitude to someone who has changed your life forever? How do you convey in words the emotions felt when someone helps you? elevate your level of self-esteem virtually overnight? All I can do is SMILE! Before I came to Dr. Sandhya, I would have never dreamt of showing my teeth when smiling at someone. Over the years, I had ground down my teeth to nothing more than little stubs. I had caps on the front of my teeth that resembled those of "Sponge Bob Square Pants". Needless to say, my teeth wee almost beyond the point of repair. I spent months searching for a dentist that I felt comfortable with who could handle complexities of what I needed to have done. Hungary, Thailand, Costa Rica and India were just a few of the locations I was willing to travel for this extensive reconstruction. My exhaustive research really paid off when I found Dr. Sandhya! She was the only dentist who gave me detailed answers to the barrage of questions that I threw her way. Her support team was also outstanding and treated me as if I were royalty. Not only did I find a new dentist but I also found a new friend. Thanks Dr. Sandhya!!!

Thank you for the excellent dental treatment you have provided. I will be happy to share the following with prospective patients Pain Management - excellent-From the injection through drilling to fitting of crowns, you are highly aware of patient sensitivity. I felt no pain in receiving 6 crowns, a bridge and 2 fillings. Technique - seemed effortless, patient, efficient, unfussy and not unnecessarily invasive. Working with the patient - you listen and take account of patient questions and comments. I actually learnt a bit about sensitivity! Commitment to perfection - You are not satisfied until the job is done right. A word about the assistant "Hindu Prakash" - always present, and quietly in support. And so gracious when he had to return late one evening to take extra impressions. So again thank you!! If you were not 10,000 miles from home, Dr. Sandhya, I would want you as our permanent family dentist!

Patient's Name : Mr. Edward Wels
Gastroenetrology and Eye check up, USA
I came to Wockhardt Hospital in Mumbai, India to have a thorough and rigorous health examination.
I am completely satisfied with the facilities, staff, equipment. From the very first e mail that I sent, till the day that I checked out the staff was very responsive to all my needs and questions.
The staff is well trained, polite, gentle, and thoughtful. Their english is very good. The doctors are very intelligent, thorough and have kneen sense of humor.
All of the testing equipment is either new or very close to new and all of it is well maintained and in excellent working condition. I saw only top of the line equipment from leading manufacturers from all over the world including the USA, Japan, U.K & Germany.
The hospital staff is conveniently located. The building seems to be only a few years old and is immaculately maintained. Sanitary conditions are rigorously maintained.
I would not hesitate to return and I recommend this hospital to anyone in need of treatment.
Best regards,

Dear Friends at Wockhardt Hospital,
I have been entirely comfortable during my surgical stay here. The obvious experience demonstrated in dealing with International patients make me able to recommend your service to any associates. While my surgical procedure was minor and routine I would and probably will return in the future should a need arise. My room was appropriately appointed, when I described it to my friends in the USA by e-mail they concluded I was on a holiday. Meals were well prepared and varied inspite of the adjustments necessitated by the global bird flu crisis. I missed my chicken and eggs, but this could not be helped. Matter of fact medical treatment, state of art equipment, a skilled surgical team and round the clock nursing care provided an anxiety free stay. I was amazed at how quiet my room was in such a busy hospital. I am also grateful to Dr.Dheeraj Bhojwani for his tireless effort in co coordinating my visit. The myriad e-mails and telephone calls, assistance in expediting my visa, all made this visit a positive and successful experience. Overall you have raised my expectation of what professional medical treatment should be.

Patient's Name: Mr. George Marshall
Bypass Surgery United Kingdom
When I arrived at the Wockhardt hospital, Bangalore, all the preparations had already been made before I was taken to surgery.
The first thing that struck to me about the hospital was that the nurses and doctors all seemed very friendly. In fact the most striking thing was the smile of the nurses.
I think it was absolutely terrific and I would have no hesitation in recommending any of my friends to come here.
All I can say that it has been an experience. I would not say that I wanted the heart operation, but on the other hand, knowing that it has been very professionally completed, I am very happy with the result.
Patient's Name: Mr. Gregory Bates

Things settled down after the surgery and so did Mr. Bates. Happy and satisfied he was discharged on 10th day of his stay. After flying Back to U.K. he was being followed up at Sussex by his family physician

"I congratulate Dr. K. M. Cherian and all the dedicated doctors and nurses and the staff and everybody working in this hospital. Dr Cherian, I wish you all the best from my heart and a long successful life. I would also like to thank all the nurses in charge of the second floor as well as those of the ICU. You are really wonderful. Keep up the good work and God Bless you all.”
“In addition to worldwide experience and delicacy, I have noticed another spiritual effect on your part; when you visit them (the patients), they improve and become much better.
As Prophet Mohammed said:
“There is an organ in the body, if it is healthy the whole body becomes healthy, but if it is diseased the whole body changes into a mess; that organ is the HEART”
I would like to thank all the staff of Frontier Lifeline.”
"Caring people; I would like to thank Dr. Cherian and his dedicated team for what they did for my son and always we will remember all of you in Iraq.”

"When I had the heart attack in India a year ago, little did I know that it would be the best place to have it !
Firstly, from a professional standpoint. It is clear from the way I feel today that you did a first class job, but I have consulted with cardiologists here in Spain and their verdict is unanimous: they could not have done a better job !
Secondly, and even more importantly, from a human perspective. The love and care I received during my hospital stay will never be forgotten. These days, that type of nurturing is difficult to find in European hospitals, and I feel honored and very lucky to have had the chance to experience it in Delhi Max Devaki Devi Heart & Vascular Institute.
For these two crucial reasons I thank you, Dr. Seth, and ask you to convey my heartfelt gratitude to all those who made my stay in hospital, odd as it may seem, a most pleasant one.
With warmest regards from your friend"

Manipal Heart Foundation has a very powerful team and expertise in treating maladies like the TGA (Transposition of Great Arteries). We are very happy and for ever thankful to the doctors, nurses and all the staff of Manipal Hospital for being very helpful and supportive to my baby.”
- Ann from Philippines
Mother of the baby who underwent a complicated heart surgery at Manipal Heart Foundation
It's been first-class treatment from day one, from the nursing staff, the surgeon, administration… it's been excellent; I think, much superior to what we would have received in the UK. The operation I had at the Manipal would have been four or five times more expensive in England. It's an excellent service and everything is catered for. We made some very good friends here.”
