Spune-ne despre tine
I am Pradeesh Singh and I belong to Fiji. I am 56 years old.
Ce te-a adus în India?
My problem started with a mild chest pain which soon turned into heart blockage. When I consulted a doctor in Fiji for the chest pain, he advised me to get some tests done. The test reports were abnormal and insinuated towards abnormal heart condition. I was admitted to the hospital in Fiji. Later, to confirm the diagnosis, the doctor performed an angiogram, which revealed something very shocking. I was suffering from severe cardiac blockage. The angiogram revealed approximately 80% of blockage in branches of left and right coronary arteries. Therefore the doctor in Fiji advised me to come to India for Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) because the infrastructure in Fiji was not enough for the surgery.
Cum ai ales spitalul si medicul?
În timp ce căutam pe internet cele mai bune spitale de cardiologie din India, we found out about Vaidam Health, which would assist us in everything related to the treatment. I posted a query and received a call shortly after that. I was asked to share my reports to get the hospital opinion. After I shared my reports, my case manager suggested me some of the topmost cardiac surgeons in India. Since I had heard of Dr. Naresh Trehan earlier and my case manager also suggested me the same, I decided to get the surgery done by him at Medanta Hospital, Gurgaon.
Cum ai obtinut viza?
Acest proces a fost facilitat și de echipa Vaidam. M-au ajutat să iau scrisoarea de invitație pentru viză de la spital. După ce am primit-o, am aplicat pentru viza și am primit-o într-o săptămână.
Povestește-ne despre experiența ta după ce ai ajuns în India.
După sosirea mea în India, o persoană din echipa Vaidam mă aștepta în afara aeroportului să mă ia și să mă lase la hotel. După ce m-am odihnit și m-am împrospătat, mi-am fixat programarea dr. Naresh Trehan. During the appointment, the doctor patiently heard my entire story from the beginning and saw my reports. He then ordered some routine investigations and cardiology tests. After getting the reports, he confirmed that I need CABG. I was admitted to the hospital for nearly 7 days. After that, I stayed in a hotel for the next 3-4 days, during which I had to follow up at the hospital.
Cum ți-ai aranjat șederea la hotel?
Sejurul meu la hotel a fost aranjat și de Vaidam. A fost rezervat pe baza proximității mele față de hotel, a ușurinței de a face naveta și, de asemenea, pe celelalte preferințe ale mele.
