How was your experience with MedicoExperts and the Indian Surgeon?
When I first got in touch with them, I was not very sure about them, but eventually, I build up trust by knowing how genuine they were. The gynaecology surgeons they are tie-ed up with are very good and well experienced. After days of keeping in touch with the MedicoExperts team, I finally got my surgery done. My surgery was successful and I am completely recovered now and feel so much better.
I am glad I chose MedicoExperts, I am very happy and better now.
About patient
Hello, my name is Faith, and I am 36 years old, and few years ago I was diagnosed with uterine fibroids. I used to have severe bleeding, a huge belly and extreme cramping. Sometimes, my bleeding was so heavy, I could not go out. I tried all sorts of herbal and medicinal remedies but nothing helped.
What brought you to India?
To have done laparoscopic myomectomy surgery by team of Priyanka Bisht, comprising of her, Dr. Rahul kankhedia and Dr. Shyam Sunder Soni (Medical experts) was God intervention and a riddance to phobia associated with fibroid removal and anticipated pro surgery pains and associate complications.
My husband and I had challenge with fertility and that has led me to different doctors and hospitals in Nigeria. Having spend fortune in trying, I was linked with Medico expert (Indian Doctors) through social media. We chatted and she recommended I do some test and send to her in India and I complied. She responded that I have multiple fibroid that needed to be removed. She told me the cost and when her team will be visiting Nigeria. Her advice, suggestion, explanation of process and recommendation rid me of fear and I chose to do the surgery with them. They arrived Carez Hospital, Owerri, Imo State, Nigeria, on 01/05/2019 for two days to attend to persons with challenges. I was there and made payment through bank transfer; but public holiday and bank restriction on my Account, the money was not remitted to the hospital's account.
This development was to rob me of the chance to be attended to by the team. As God may have it, The Team where more human the humanitarian than business incline. They had me operated without first receiving alert from my bank. their humanity was phenomenon! Four day after, I was discharged. 30 days latter, the incision wounds are all healed and I am back to normal life without complication and pains associated with post surgery experience. MedicoExperts are not only expert in surgery, but also has touch of humanity. Those who have fear or phobia for surgery or complication associated with it, I recommend MedicoExperts as your best option.

My name is Marie and I am 56 years old. I was prescribed medicine when I started to experience hip pain several years ago, had MRI performed, but felt no relief or adequate diagnosis of my hip disease. I couldn’t bend, or enjoy any of my previous activities. Moving my hip even a little would cause me immense pain. Eventually my doctors asked me to get an x-ray done, and the results showed that my left leg was shorter than my right and this could be corrected after a hip replacement surgery. I spoke to my local doctor and started checking for options to get this treatment.
How did you know about MedicoExperts?
While scrolling through Facebook, I came across an advertisement about minimally invasive hip replacement surgery, and quickly filled up the enquiry form. Within 24hrs, I got in touch with their patient care expert and began discussing my condition. The orthopaedic surgeon in India reviewed my reports and said that I was a good candidate for minimally invasive surgery. And with that I began my plan to travel to India to receive my treatment.

My experience was very good. MedicoExperts team kept in touch with me throughout my journey and was very kind and helpful. My surgeon too was excellent and I was discharged from the hospital very soon. I was able to resume work 2 weeks after my surgery and also have been able to move better. My life is better and renewed now.

When her local doctors could not diagnose her condition, Ada approached MedicoExperts and received timely surgery for cervical cancer
Tell us about yourself
I am Ada, 27 years old from Ghana. In 2016, I was in a pretty low phase in my life, with my parents passing away in a span of eight months. Around the same time, I started to experience extensive pain and uncontrollable bleeding for several months. I sought a local physician who suggested I visit a gynaecologist. I was on some herbal remedy to better my condition, but it did not help at all. I check the suggested gynaecologist about my condition and he asked me to get a few tests done. After several tests, he still could not find what was wrong me, this led me to find help online, and that’s how I stumbled upon MedicoExperts.
How did you know about MedicoExperts?
As mentioned, I was looking for a second opinion and re-evaluation of my conditions, when I found about MedicoExperts in India. They have an online consultation platform that helped me connect with a specialist. I shared all my reports with the specialist and he suggested I get a pelvic examination done. So, next day I got myself examined. When the reports came, I was diagnosed with cervical cancer. An MRI revealed that the mass was two and a half centimetres, spreading from my cervix to my uterus and to the top of my vagina. I shared this with my consulting specialist from India, who proposed I would have to undergo radical hysterectomy, and asked if I was willing to travel to India for the treatment. I was more than confident about travelling, as it was, he who helped me correctly diagnose my condition. So, I booked my treatment dates and began preparing myself for the treatment and travel.
How was your experience with MedicoExperts and the Indian Surgeon?
I must say they are very particular and good. The doctors they have with them are excellent. My specialist was able to promptly diagnose my condition which I did not get back in my own country. My surgery was also a success and also underwent chemotherapy in India. I am grateful to them as they helped me heal and get back to my old life.

Tell us about yourself
My name is Anna and I am 25 years of age. I was asked to get a smear test, after I was experiencing severe back pains and bleeding in between my periods. I also had very heavy menstrual bleeding.

I was devasted but my mother helped me through and also helped me make the right choice.
How did you know about MedicoExperts?
My mother actually found an ad on Facebook about cervical cancer care by MedicoExperts. She gave them a call to find out more and what are the treatment options. With the MedicoExperts team, we discussed about my reports and since I was young, we looked for non-invasive treatment options. I was recommended to undergo advanced radical trachelectomy as I wanted the least invasive method. They also suggested I do chemotherapy first which ensure that my cancer did not come back. But to get my treatment underway, I had to travel to India. After a lot of discussion and deliberation, we decided to go ahead. Team MedicoExperts was kind enough and very patient in all our doubting times.

Oana was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer at the early age of 29, in February 2017.
Tell us about yourself
I am Oana, and now I am 32. I was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer in 2017. Two years ago, I felt a lump on my right breast, the first time I suspected something was wrong. An ultrasound was instructed by my gynaecologist, but the test findings were normal. A year later, I still felt the lump, but this time I had other symptoms as well, my areola had a dark spot, my nipple had crustiness and discharge, and I also had sharp pain in my chest. I asked for something other than an ultrasound to be tested and she ordered an MRI, a test that was more probable to be covered by my insurance than a mammogram and disclose any cancer in my breasts. After my MRI, I was asked to get a mammogram, ultrasound and biopsy done urgently and on priority, as they found something suspicious in my scans. The results revealed I had HER2-positive breast cancer. I was terrified and almost lost, but my family helped me cope with it all. We started discussing the possible treatment options I had and the best place to get them done.
How did you know about MedicoExperts?
My father’s colleague suggested MedicoExperts, as she too had breast cancer and MedicoExperts assisted her for her treatment, and is doing really well today. My dad started to find them online and got in touch with them on my behalf initially. Later, I spoke with them, shared my reports and received consultation from their doctor as well. The breast onco-surgeon has good experience and was also very renowned. However, I had to travel for my double mastectomy surgery in India. Since, we already had a reference, we were not too scared to make the decision.
How was your experience with MedicoExperts and the Indian Surgeon?
Everyone was very supportive and caring through my surgery, and treatment afterwards. After the surgery I received chemotherapy and radiation. I was also suggested on what to eat and how to manage my side-effects of treatment. I must say, they really know how to handle sensitive cases as well and also ensure there is lot of positivity and care. I am glad we chose to travel to India and chose MedicoExperts to be our guide and aid.

Tell us about yourself
My name is Lulu, 44 years old. I have been getting my annual mammograms without fail for the past 10 years. However, in 2015, my results lead my doctor to perform a biopsy on my left breast.

How did you know about MedicoExperts?
I heard on the radio about MedicoExperts organizing an OPD and surgical camp in my country, Nigeria Out of curiosity, I got in touch with them to check if they could help and diagnose me.

I did, and after sharing the report with the oncologist from India, they told me that they could do a breast-conserving surgery i.e. lumpectomy and radiation in my case as the cancer had not spread, however, I would have to travel to India for the treatment. As I was more comfortable with the Indian oncologist I met, I agreed to travel and began raising funds. One of the MedicoExperts team member was in constant touch with me.
How was your experience with MedicoExperts and the Indian Surgeon?
As I said, someone from MedicoExperts was always checking up on me, even before I began my journey. They were very courteous and helping.

My name is Anthony Igwe, and I am 58 years old and I am from Ghana. I was diagnosed with stage 3 prostate cancer in Jan 2010. I had all the symptoms, uncontrollable frequent urination, blood in the urine, and a lot of pain and discomfort. My local doctors said I should get a surgery done to remove it, but I was not sure. I wanted to seek second opinion, someone who could help me better.
How did you know about MedicoExperts?
I stayed positive and began looking for second opinion from my local doctors, but I was still worried about getting good treatment in my own country. A relative suggested I visit the MedicoExperts Connect Centre in Ghana. When I went there with my reports, they reconfirmed what the reports suggested, but said that they could get me in touch with a doctor in India who can help me evaluate my situation better. After speaking to the Surgeon from India, I was informed that it was not necessary I undergo surgery as it could do more damage than good, getting radiotherapy along with hormone therapy was a more logical option. They recommended sessions of radiotherapy. They asked me if I was willing to travel to India for my treatment. I had heard a lot of good things about the facilities in India and their doctors, and I felt I should get my treatment done in India. The team was kind enough to help me make a choice according to my preference.

Tell us about yourself
Hi, I am Daniel Banda, 49 years old from Nigeria. I decided to get a general check-up done, which included PSA test. When my results came, the PSA levels were surprisingly high and I was asked for further evaluation which included biopsy. After my results, I was told I had localized prostate cancer and could get a surgery done. I always believed that prostate cancer was the disease of an old man before my diagnosis.
How did you know about MedicoExperts?
I found out about MedicoExperts through a Facebook ad about prostate cancer. I dropped an inquiry and they got back to me pretty quickly. I discussed with them about my symptoms and conditions, and after sharing reports, they told me I could undergo radical prostatectomy. However, I had to travel to India for getting this treatment. I was a bit worried about travelling so far for surgery. MedicoExperts team got me to consult with the surgeon directly, which helped me build trust.
How was your experience with MedicoExperts and the Indian Surgeon?
After the initial doubting phase, I was able to make my decision to travel to India. I must say the MedicoExperts team is very thorough. They urged me to ask and clear all my doubts with the uro-onclogist in India before my travel plans. I discussed all the possibilities of side-effects and how long will I take to get back to my normal routine. This helped me prepare for the surgery better and also mentally be prepared for the side-effects. My overall experience was good and I would definitely recommend MedicoExperts for any treatment.
