Before surgery: "For more than two years, I have been suffering from severe neck pain. The pain would radiate down my arm, and my arm would start to feel numb and weak. I had difficulty completing daily tasks, and the pain would get worse. " I felt bad about my inability to complete daily tasks. My doctor suggested surgery, but there were few options in Iraq, and I was not sure about the quality of care I would receive here. That’s when I decided to go abroad for treatment, and after doing a lot of research, I chose India as the place to have the surgery.
Choosing India: “I saw a lot of good reviews online about the Indian healthcare system, especially for hip surgery. The hospitals there seemed to have the best equipment, expert doctors, and the cost was much lower than in other countries. I chose a well-known hospital in Delhi, where the specialists had excellent credentials and a high success rate for hip surgery.
Medical Experience: “From the moment I arrived in India, I was impressed with the professionalism and care shown by everyone. The hospital staff was welcoming and made sure I understood every aspect of the procedure. The surgeon I consulted explained my condition and recommended a discectomy and cervical fusion. I felt very confident in the surgeon's skills and agreed to go ahead with the procedure.
The surgery: "The surgery was scheduled within a few days of my consultation. I was a little nervous, but the hospital staff put me at ease and made me feel comfortable. The surgery took several hours, and I woke up with a persistent pain that had been bothering me for years. It was gone! The condition was unbelievable, and the surgeons carefully monitored me during the recovery period and gave me clear instructions for aftercare, including physical therapy and exercises to help me regain my strength.
After surgery and recovery: "After surgery, I was able to move my neck with minimal pain, and within a few weeks, I felt much better. The physiotherapists at the hospital work with me every day and I follow their advice. I have minimal post-surgery pain and my recovery has been faster than I expected. After two months, I am back to normal and all the fatigue and weakness in my arm is gone.
Overall experience: "My experience in India exceeded my expectations. The surgery was successful, the healthcare was better, and the costs were much lower than what I had paid in other countries. The healthcare system in India is very advanced and the doctors there are world class. I am very grateful for the expertise of the doctor and the hospitality of the hospital staff. I am a new person, finally free of the pain that has plagued my life.
"I highly recommend India to anyone who wants to have a spinal surgery. I had a life-changing experience and thank the team in India for saving me. my health
This is an excellent example of the positive response given by many patients from around the world, including patients from Iraq, after a successful spine surgery in India.
