Urinary incontinence refers to the loss of bladder control and is a common yet distressing condition that significantly impacts daily life. Symptoms range from occasional leakage when coughing or sneezing to a sudden, uncontrollable urge to urinate. 

These issues may seem like an inevitable part of ageing, but they can also be early warning signs of an underlying medical condition. Similar is the story of Mr. Elias Kwande from Zimbabwe, who was experiencing urinary incontinence for some time and was later diagnosed with prostate cancer.

Facing both the uncertainty and challenges of cancer, Mr. Elias decided to come to India for his treatment. Here, he met one of Vaidam Health’s case managers, who had a detailed discussion with him regarding his condition and recommended some of the best cancer hospitals and specialists for his medical needs.

He consulted Dr. Priya Tiwari, a medical oncologist at the Artemis Hospital, Gurgaon. She performed a detailed physical examination, including a PET-CT scan, ultrasound, and blood tests, which indicated that Mr. Elias’s condition can be managed by medications as of now. 

Dr. Priya also referred him to Dr. Pawan Rawal, a medical gastroenterologist at the same hospital, as Mr. Elias was also diagnosed with hepatitis B. Dr. Pawan conducted a preliminary examination and prescribed some medications to him.

Mr. Elias expressed satisfaction with the comprehensive assistance provided by us during his health journey. He came to India alone and stayed for nearly 3 weeks. In his words, “The case manager assisted me and got me some doctors at Artemis Hospital. The doctors were good. The services by Vaidam were quite good. Thank you, Vaidam.”

His journey highlights the importance of seeking the right help at the right time. In Zimbabwe now, he continues to make progress and stays optimistic about the future. We extend our best wishes for his smooth healing journey and a healthy life ahead!
