  • Name - Sandy Martel
  • Native Country - Canada
  • Chief Complaint - Sandy had been suffering from severe nerve pain in her back and neck. Her arms and legs would get numb while working or moving. When she consulted a spine surgery near her, she was diagnosed with Spinal Stenosis and Spondylitis. Sandy knew by now that she needed urgent spine surgery. Hence, she made her plan to visit India.
  • Hospital Name - Artemis Hospital
  • Doctor’s Name - Dr. Hitesh Garg, a spine specialist at the hospital
  • Treatment Taken - Cervical and Lumbar spine surgery

 

Sandy’s feedback about her treatment in India:

I had a great experience in India when it comes to the services provided by the hospital. The hospital was very clean and the medical staff was helpful. I am very happy with the doctor. He answered all the questions with patience and also discussed with me in detail about post-surgical instructions. 

The hotel where I stayed was also perfect. Even though I faced some communication problem, overall everything was up to the mark.
