Kenya resident Josphat Chege gets away with a backache and numbness after coming to India


Josphat Chege from Kenya, who is 40 years old male had an infuriating time since 2015. This was when his problem started including a backache and right leg numbness. “ I cannot stand for more than 5 minutes” were his words filled with anxiety. He additionally had pain around the pelvic region. Josphat also briefed that he cannot lead or bend forward comfortably. He had been receiving physiotherapy and some oral medication without any significant benefit.

To get rid of this irksome situation, he wanted to come to India for a better treatment. To expedite the process, he contacted Vaidam Health to help to arrange all the medical documents.

Vaidam Health sent his reports to some of the best Neurology hospitals in India to get the needful opinion for Josphat. After doing a thorough research, he decided to go to India Spinal Injuries Center.

Soon after reaching India on 11th July 2018, he was picked by a team member and taken to the booked hotel. Shortly, his appointment was booked with Dr. Narma Gupta- one of the best neurosurgeon in India, who had a detailed discussion about his symptoms. All the needful examination was conducted. After receiving the reports, the doctor made a comprehensive treatment plan for Josphat.

Josphat stayed at the hospital for approximately 3-4 months after which he was able to walk properly without any pain or discomfort. He was happy with the treatment and all other services.

He finally went back to Kenya on 11th October 2018.
