Check out the Full Video Here: 

Kristy Larson, a 77-year-old resident of the USA, was experiencing difficulty while walking due to her knee problem. She decided to undergo some imaging tests in her home country, and the results revealed that she needed knee replacement surgery.

She wanted to go to Thailand for the treatment, so she started looking online for the best knee replacement in Thailand.

Then she came across Vaidam Health, a medical travel assistant company in India.

Our representatives arranged the hospital, medical visa, and accommodation for her. The patient went to Thailand, where one of our coordinators assisted her with making her appointments with the doctor.

Dr. Chaiyapruk Pundee successfully performed the bilateral knee surgery at Samitivej Srinakarin Hospital in Bangkok. The patient went alone and was hospitalized for five days.

The patient expressed her gratitude to Vaidam's coordinator, who supported her mentally and gave her the confidence she needed for the surgery.

We hope she walks pain-free for the rest of her life.
