Patient's Name: Mr. Daniel Attah Tuffour

Age: 55 years

Gender: Male

Doctor: Dr. Akshay Shah

Hospital: Gleneagles Hospitals, Mumbai

After successfully undergoing surgery for retroperitoneal sarcoma in August 2025, Mr. Daniel Attah Tuffour returned to India on 16th February 2026 for his scheduled follow-up care. This stage of his journey reflects the importance of continued monitoring and preventive treatment in complex cancer cases.

At Gleneagles Hospitals, Mumbai, Daniel was evaluated by Dr. Akshay Shah. Although his recovery after surgery had been steady, a precautionary treatment plan was advised to reduce the chances of recurrence.

As part of this plan, Daniel underwent radiotherapy (30 fractions) followed by six weekly cycles of chemotherapy. The treatment process was explained clearly, helping him and his nephew, Clement Asare, understand each step with ease.

The structured combination of therapies ensured a focused approach towards long-term recovery. Daniel felt reassured by the clarity in communication and the organised care provided throughout his treatment.

During his approximately 1.5-month stay, everything, from hospital visits to treatment scheduling, was well managed. The environment remained supportive, and the process was smooth for both Daniel and his family.

At Vaidam, we were closely involved in supporting Daniel throughout his follow-up journey. From coordinating his appointments at Gleneagles Hospitals to assisting with travel arrangements, accommodation, and on-ground support, our team ensured a seamless experience. Our priority was to make the entire process stress-free so that he could focus fully on his treatment and recovery.

Reflecting on his experience, Daniel shared that returning for follow-up care was an important step in his overall recovery. The personalised attention and well-planned treatment gave him confidence moving forward.

We are honoured to have been a part of Daniel Attah Tuffour’s continued care journey in India.

We wish him good health, strength, and a smooth recovery ahead.
