Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) August 20, 2008
Bridget Nkechi Onah returned from a very effective & affordable knee replacement surgery in India. The trip was arranged and facilitated by Plano, TX based, Medical Tourism Corporation.
Onah was utilized to a complete and active life, till the discomfort in her knees started to slow her down some years ago. By profession a lecturer in the University of Nigeria, Enugu Campus, she holds masters degrees in Rural and Medical Sociology.
She pulled on by sheer mental strength, but the arthritic knee discomfort soon got to a point exactly where she could not walk any longer, let alone pursuing her passions of operating on women’s issues and HIV/AIDS education.
It was then that she decided that she need to concentrate on discovering a resolution for her problem. Therefore Onah, author and contributor to several skilled journals and publications, took a sabbatical from her teaching career at the University of Nigeria and went more than to her daughter’s place in Atlanta, GA, U.S.
Nonetheless there was a issue with receiving the knee replacement done in the U.S.: the inhibitive expense. Onah is not insured and there was no way she could afford to pay $ 47,000 for one particular knee replacement and $ 94,000 for bilateral knee replacement.
Hence, she turned to medical tourism. “I looked up ‘knee replacement in India’ on the World wide web and that is when I came across Medical Tourism Corporation. At that stage, I had nonetheless not produced up my mind even though. But the fast responses and incredibly skilled communication from Medical Tourism Corporation helped me talk about the matter with my family members and arrive at a collective selection,” she said.
Medical Tourism Corporation was with Onah by way of each and every stage of the trip: from preparing for the trip, obtaining the visas, arranging the surgery, and secure return house. “All inquiries that I had had been answered. And even just before I went there, I got to see the resume of the medical doctor who would treat me, Dr Sanjay Pai, and was quite impressed. He had 18 years of experience in his field. That was really reassuring,” Onah says.
The detailed info she received about the top quality of medical tourism in India in common and knee replacement in particular combined with the reality that she could get the process carried out for an unbelievably low $ 14,000 for both knees helped her make up her mind. It also helped that Medical Tourism Corporation got her a discount of $ 500 on her air tickets compared to what she was in a position to shop on her very own.
The Corporation arranged for her to get the bilateral knee replacement completed at Wockhardt Hospital in India, a globe class healthcare facility, affiliated to Harvard Medical in the U.S. “It was really fulfilling to get the treatment in that hospital. The top quality of medical care was incredibly higher. The nurses showed excellent training and large ethical values,” she stated. “The medical group was basically superb. The anesthetists had been great, as well. And Dr Pai was an astounding group leader.” English is extensively spoken at the hospital & she was also really pleased that the dietitians offered meals based on the patients decision.
Onah got back to the U.S. about two weeks ago and is now recuperating. Soon, she hopes, she will be able to walk once again and get back to doing the issues she loves. “I employed to go for extended walks with my husband and buddies and haven’t been able to do that for some time now. So, I appear forward to all that,” she stated. “I am very impressed with the highly expert way in which Medical Tourism Corporation helped me. All through the time I was in India, people from the Corporation kept calling me from the U.S., asking how I was carrying out and if there was something I wanted. I think that was extremely, really fulfilling.”
