Ms. Janet is a Sierra Leone national whose knees deteriorated with time and age. The orthopedic surgeons recommended a total knee replacement for both her knees. She went to Germany eight years back and got the operations done. But recently, she started to feel pain again. After getting X-rays done, it was established that her prosthetics had got loose and she would be requiring revision surgery.

In pursuit of the best medical treatment, she went to England, where her sister and her family lived. But things didn't work out. Everyone, including her sister and surgeons from Sierra Leone, recommended she go to India for the surgery. India has some of the best orthopedic surgeons and hospitals in the world. She learned about us through Facebook and contacted us. As she was in a lot of pain, we acted quickly and, within five days, made all the arrangements for her surgery in India.

She consulted Dr. Manoj Miglani, an Orthopedic Surgeon with over 23 years of experience. The surgeon planned a bilateral knee replacement surgery for her. The revision surgery of the first knee was successfully performed in July, and the second knee was operated in November at the Fortis Hospital, Vasant Kunj, New Delhi.

Revision surgeries are always more complex and challenging than standard operations. But with the surgical excellence of Dr. Manoj and the availability of modern medical techniques and equipment at the Fortis Hospital, both her operations were highly successful. She is now feeling a lot better and is pain-free. She is happy and satisfied with both the surgeon and the hospital.

She thanked the whole team of Vaidam for taking good care of her in India. She received on-ground support from us and never felt like she was away from her home. She considers her case manager a family member and has expressed gratitude towards her.

We are happy and obliged that Ms. Janet gave us the opportunity to serve her, not once but twice. We hope she won't require any more revision surgeries and remains pain-free for the rest of her life.
