Leading Indian gynecologist hashes out her education, experience and specialization in the filed of gynecology. In addition to the routine gynecological procedures, she also specializes in cancer surgeries in gynaecology, hysterectomy, myomectomy, tubal ligation, tubal recanalization and various cystectomies. Check out this video for more details.

Education and Experience – Video Narration

“I am a senior practicing gynaecologist and obstetrician. I have been educated throughout in the capital of the country i.e. New Delhi. I have done my graduation from Maulana Azad Medical College and my post graduation and my registrarship from Lady Hardinge Medical College.

I am well versed in all routine and extensive gynae and obstetric procedures. I have been doing cancer surgeries in gynaecology, hysterectomies, laparoscopies, myomectomies, tubal ligations, tubal recanalization, various cystectomies, and all routine gynaecology procedures.”

Gynaecological treatments in India – Advantages

“I would think that as far as tubal recanalization is concerned about sixty percent tubes recanalize very well and we take infertility of the patient after that for about thirty to fifty percent.

I have been treating patients from Europe, that is probably Austria, Germany, Spain, England, Wales, Scotland, the middle east – Afghanistan, also I have been seeing a lot of patients from Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Nigeria, because lot of patients come for treatment from here. I have been seeing Canadian citizens also. I have a few patients from the US.

Patients are for varying procedures because as far as from Canada what I have realized is that the health system does not allow them to get the surgeries done in a speedy fashion so they like to come here for minor and major procedures, since they have a long waiting list so as to say.

From America patients who come in here because procedures may be very expensive like hysterectomies so here the patient is in a ambience which is much better than what they probably would get even in their home country and the comfort level is very nice so we have been treating patients for all these sort of surgeries here.

It is probably one of the finest personalized boutique facilities in the country. In an ambience which is very homely and warm, a patient gets all sort of medical facilities which are not overtly pushed at the patient. For any major surgeries, we have never had any problems. All the equipments are latest and all the sutures and techniques we are using are of international standards. We have lot of patients here from the embassy’s also so all the …… also like to get operated and treated here. So the facility I would say is truly international.”

In this video, leading surgeon from India shares her experience in the field of gynecology. She specializes in gynecology procedures, cancer surgeries in gynaecology, hysterectomy etc.

Medical tourists from different countries are flying to India for their treatment because of an affordable cost, negligible wait time, internationally trained doctors and surgeons and state-of-the-art Indian hospitals.

Looking for Dental Implants in India? Check out what a leading Mumbai (Bombay) dental surgeon has to say about his experience and expertise in teeth implants.

Professional experience of Mumbai prosthodontist

“I basically conduct courses for the nobel biocare system which is a Swedish system as we know, it’s probably the number one system in the world. We also use the frialit or now the XiVE system, which is a German system and we are also using some of the cheaper systems available in the market but I don’t recommend them. It’s only because some of the prices have to be low, which is a Korean system called austep , but basically I concentrate mainly on the nobel biocare system or in bridge I am one of the leader’s in India.”

Immediate Implantation Vs Loading

“I think first when we talk about immediate implantation, we have to distinguish between two things – which is immediate implantation and immediate load implants. Immediate implantation can be done when we pull out a tooth and put an implanting, that is immediate implantation and immediate loading means that we place an implant on day 1 and we also put a crown on it on day 1. You can combine these two, so we can have immediate implantation as well as immediate loading or we can only have either of the two.

What is attractive to patients today is that when they come in, you pull out a tooth, you put an implanting and then you load it on the same day. Ofcourse it is not possible in all the cases especially where there are infections present. So in those cases we cannot do this procedure but immediate loading we can do in virtually most of the procedure except where there is not enough bone available and we have to do augmentation of bone along with implant placement.

In that case we cannot do loading immediately but when we are doing guided surgeries, for example, which is that we are using a stent to place the implant and this planning has been done on the computer so that we have got the exact position of the implant that we desire and then we use a stent to place the implant. What happens is that we can load it on day 1 but for that to happen, the extractions have to be done in advance, then we have to wait for a minimum of two months after which we take a CT scan, we plan the case, then make the prosthesis before placing the implant. Prosthesis is the bridge that goes on top of the implants. And then when we place the implants, we immediately place the bridge on top of it and screw it in. But this bridge is a temporary bridge on day 1 and it will need a permanent bridge to be done within a minimum time of six months.

Today everybody wants immediate loading done that means they don’t want to wear a denture for any period of time, when they have implants in their mouth. So it’s the convenience factor that is very important for the patient. Patient feels that he has his own teeth from day 1, all the way down. That is something that is really useful for patients coming in and getting dental tourism done.

Ofcourse, if you look at the pricing, pricing in India is much much lower than what is available in the west and the good part is that the quality remains the same. Its just that the pricing is different. The equipment is the same as you can see at the websites as well. The qualifications are the same.

I teach in the university called the Athens university in Germany. I am faculty of that. So basically the qualification remains the same. Its only that the cost differs because of the profitability of the Indian dentists is a lot lower than the American or the UK dentists or the European dentists.

The last we counted, we had about 89 or 90 countries that which we are treating patients from. As we know today, India is itself a place where a lot of foreigners stay, so its been virtually 89 or 90 countries, but the main countries we do tourism from is ofcourse USA, Canada, the UK, some are from Germany and Switzerland and of course Africa, Australia, as you go down that side, Indonesia, some from Japan, so this is the main concentration of our patients that come in from abroad for dental treatment.”

In this video, the leading dental implant surgeon from India discusses his education and experience. He also talks about immediate loading and implantation. Immediate load implants are also known as same day dental implants. Besides India, same day dental implants in costa rica are also offered at an affordable price.

Cosmetic treatments may not always be covered by insurance, and self-pay patients are continuously looking for affordable options. The boom in medical tourism industry has made it possible for people to avail expensive treatments like plastic and cosmetic surgery at pocket friendly prices.

People seeking low-cost aesthetic treatments may consider plastic surgery in India. Check this video of a leading plastic and cosmetic surgeon from India.

Following is the video narration.

Education and Experience in Plastic Surgery

“I am a plastic and cosmetic surgeon. I did my post graduate training in the United States. I did general surgery from the University of Medicine and Dentistry in New Jersey and plastic surgery from the University of Southern California in Los Angeles followed by a fellowship in craniofacial surgery at UCLA in Los Angeles.

I am American Board of plastic surgery certified as well as American Board of Surgery.”

Cosmetic Surgery – facelifts, neck lifts, breast lifts etc

“Face lifts basically is a procedure which is done to reverse the signs of ageing. Face life is sometimes used as a common procedure for face and neck lift. Occasionally, we do just a neck lift which is tightening area of the neck in the lower jaw. Also other procedures are like an endoscopic brow lift where the forehead is lifted. Face lifts, neck lifts can all be done in combination with other facial rejuvenation or anti-ageing procedures like eye bags or blepharoplasty. Surgeries like lipoinjections or fat injections in the lips or augmentation of the face, laser resurfacing to remove fine lines or wrinkles on the face.

I am doing breast lifts, breast augmentation, breast reduction procedures. In patients who have had massive weight loss like post bariatric patients also doing breast lifts with augmentation. These are often times combined with other upper body lift procedures especially like the arm lifts or brachioplasty and liposuction in those areas. In the tortial area or in the lower body it’s also like doing a circumferential lower body lift which involves doing both the tummy tuck in the front also a ….. Or hip lift and then a buttock lift for the back.

This may or may not be combined with liposuction and Thai lifts at the same time depending on the patient’s requirement in physical conditions.”

Craniofacial

“I have expertise or advanced training is in craniofacial. In craniofacial one sees a lot of children who are born with facial anomalies. Also, adults who have alignments of the jaws or have an aesthetically undesirable appearance of the face because of the where the jaws are placed.”

Jaw Surgery

“I do orthognathic surgery which is basically jaw surgery in order to move the upper jaw, forward jaw backwards, lower jaw back. These are surgeries which are done to improve the aesthetic alignment of the jaws and to give a better appearance to the face. Operational theater is fully equipped. We have state-of-the-art equipments in terms of monitoring patient safety and surgical instrumentation which are no different from what you would find in any well equipped hospital in the US or Europe.”

Medical tourists in India

“Majority of my patients are coming from the United States, UK or Europe. Fair number of patients is also coming from African nations like Nigeria, Congo, and from the Middle East countries like Oman which are very common. We are seeing a lot of patients from Iraq, from Iraq mostly reconstructive patients but from the other nations both reconstructive and cosmetic patients. We are doing all the latest fillers, lasers. Also now we are doing ultrasound assisted liposuction, laser assisted liposuction which are all what would be available in the US are all available and performed over here.”

In the video, reputed plastic surgeon talks about her education and experience in the field of surgery. She is an expert in various cosmetic surgeries like post bariatric plastic surgery, facelifts, neck lifts etc. Furthermore, she also talks about her other fields of interest in surgery like Orthognathics and craniofacial.

Leading spinal surgeon from India hashes out his education and experience. He also talks about his specialization in procedures like spinal surgery, joint replacement, revision joint surgery (knee revision, hip revision, shoulder and elbow revision etc.), revision spine surgery, correction of deformities and stem cell therapy.
Check out what the surgeon in the video says about stem cell transplantation in India.

Education and Experience in Spinal Surgery

“I trained in India, in Gujarat, most of my primary and post graduate training and then subsequently I went to England, worked in Oxford – the Nuffield orthopaedic center there. And after a few years on England, came back to India, went back to Germany and worked there at ….. Carlsberg which is a centre well known for spinal surgery. Following that I have done various fellowships in America, Switzerland, Australia. Sometimes between two to six months spent in various places in the world. So I think I am adequately trained. I have been practicing now from a long time.

I got a huge number of patients I operate which include spinal surgeries, joint replacements, revision joint surgeries, revision spinal surgeries, correction of deformities etc. apart from the routine trauma.

Publications which I have done, they are on spinal surgery, that we have done two of them when I used work in Oxford. We came out with two papers, one of spinal canal stenosis, the other on the genetic correlation in scoliosis with patient’s relatives including the parents and grandparents. So we take blood samples and try to correlate that.

Preliminary results are very exciting, especially in the area of spinal fusions. I understand now, all across the world, there would be about three to fifteen thousand cases, exact numbers are not known where totipotent cells, mesenchymal stem cells are used. We have now done in the last one month fifteen cases. We have done it for spinal fusions. We have done it for avascular necrosis and also for bone gaps which are ……

The initial results are very encouraging. However before we come to any statistical unbiased report, it would take us sometime, may be a couple of months before we come out with results. It is the largest centre outside United States today, carrying out stem cell therapy.”

Stem cell therapy procedure

“We are using mesenchymal stem cells. The stem cells are isolated from the iliac crest so you put in a needle and collect the bone marrow and then centrifuge it. There is a kind of membrane through which you pass the centrifuge and you get a buffy coat which is full of mesenchymal stem cells. These stem cells are then injected into the site where you want fusion to occur. And when you put it into that site, they get converted to osteoblast which will give rise to new bone and it’s the patient’s own stem cells so there is no question of a reaction.

The amount of blood that we need is slightly over 100 mls which is also a small amount and we take it from the patient’s own iliac crest. That is no incision; it’s a small needle that goes in. It’s actually a much better technique. Other alternatives where we take out the patient’s bone grafts and that would lead to patient having lot of pain at the site of bone graft.

The other alternative was to use bone morphogenic protein, also called as BMP. A bone morphogenic protein is something that works very well. But the only drawback is that it is an extremely expensive proposition.”

In this video, leading spinal surgeon shares his education and expertise. Talking about stem cell therapy, he explains that using mesenchymal stem cells in the procedure is much better than using bone grafts. There is another comparatively safer technique called BMP. But it is expensive one in countries like US and UK. Therefore, medical tourists come to India for surgery at reasonable prices.

Multiple Sclerosis liberation treatment in India has become a good option for medical tourists who are looking for pocket friendly MS treatment. The procedure is transparent and of high quality. The cost of MS treatment in India is low as compared to the western countries because cost of maintenance in hospitals is low due to low cost of living. Check out what this Multiple sclerosis surgeon in India tells about his experience.
Following is the video narration.

Multiple Sclerosis Treatment in India

“…Particularly like in multiple sclerosis and till now most of the people, they go for medical management rather than any other surgical treatment or any other things. But in last like few six months or seven months, I am seeing that good number of the patients have started enquiring about the intervention procedures which is like in good number of the patients around 70-80 percent of the patients in multiple sclerosis, they found that in the neck veins which is narrowed, become narrowed or not too much dilated, multiple collaterals, even in the spine veins also get choked up, that is known as the azygous vein.

If we do the venoplasty, we put a small balloon on that one, this procedure is done under the local anesthesia. If we make them dilated veins and if we put a stent on that so the blood flow from the brain and the spine, that gets very well drained and good number of the patients, around 70 to 80 percent of the patients, they feel that their symptoms, particularly the weakness and the difficulty in walking and the retention of the urine and these all disappear in one or two weeks time.”

MS Procedure in India

“In multiple sclerosis, these procedures like till now Indian patients are also there and good number of patients, those coming from the abroad particularly the Canadian patients. Few patients we have done from the UK also. And these most of the patients, they are very young and they also know that these are the only treatments available. They don’t have any other option. So they want to try these procedures.

Neuro intervention radiology is the very wide kind of branch. If you see that what kind of procedure we do without surgery particularly the aneurysms, arterial…..and the neuro-surgeons- they do the surgical procedures.

In aneurysm, this is becomes now a days the very standard, and this is the first choice of treatments for aneurysm coiling, and some other conditions like arteries venous malformation, there also owe treat by AVM or AV Embolization technique and particular, like you see like in the old people, may be the male or the female, those having the ostephorous in their spine, we do the vertigoplasty, that also with or without surgery. We put special medical cement I n the collapse vertebra and osteopra vertebra, they give a little more strength, and pain in other problems.”

Uterine Fibroid Embolization India

“Uterine fibroid, uterine adenomyosis, this is a big question for most of the women those suffering by that. These women like gets the heavy menses, they may be one week or two week this long period and have the low hemoglobin and other things.

To making them aware we made India’s first uterine fibroid club, we give all the information to the women who are suffering from fibroids in the adenomyosis. Till l now, we provided information to more than 50000 women; these are all like the cases of no profit and no loss. And we make them aware that these are the treatments available to you without surgery also.

And good number of our patients; they get conceived also after fibroid emboilzation. But _patients have to be got evaluated when you see their scanning reports .In India, till now, we have done till last 2 and half years, more than 700 hundred patients. This is like the largest series when you see that, even in the European countries also, in one centre by one person, they have done this much number of case.”

In this video, leading radiologist from India speaks about the symptoms and procedure of Multiple sclerosis in India. He is a specialist in doing various kinds of surgeries like varicose vein, uterine fibroid embolization, and also, CCSVI liberation procedure in India.

Looking for heart pacemaker surgery and that too, at reasonable rates. Then come to India for cardiac surgery. Most Indian hospitals have modern techniques, state of art infrastructure and world reputed doctors. Check out what this leading Indian cardiac surgeon speaks in the video.

Following is the video narration.

Education and Expertise in Cardiac Surgeries

“I have done my education in PGI, Chandigarh, and my MD in medicine and DM in cardiology. Thereafter I went out of India and I had done my MRCP from UK. After doing my MRCP in UK I came back to India. I have studied in UK where I completed my MRCP, came to India and then went back again to United States to do my electrophysiology fellowship in Wisconsin Milwaukee. There I trained myself for radio frequency operations and various device implantation like pacemakers, ICD’s, combo devices.

Basic interests are interventional cardiology where I do angioplasty and other interventions. Then my interest is electrophysiology where I do the ….. and the device implantations like I said earlier pacemakers, ICD’s, combo devices and of course radio frequency operation is one of the main operation which I carry at this hospital.”

Pacemaker Implantation Surgery

“Pacemaker is a device which is required to pep up the pulse rate. If the pulse rate drops because of some reason either that the electric activity is not been produced by the heart or there is some kind of block rooted to the lower chamber of the heart on the way. So in both the situations the pacemakers are required which guarantee a minimum heart rate to the patient.”

Balloon Angioplasty and Stent Implantation

“These days whenever you do a balloon angioplasty, usually it is accompanied by a stent implantation because it has been seen in early 2000 or so, even in 90s, 80s that whenever you dilate a blockage with balloon alone, the chances of coming it back within 6 months are very high. After the stent came in, what we do is, we dilate the area of blockage with a balloon and then we implant a stent at that place. After the stent is implanted now it has been seen that the chances of recurrence has decreased a lot.

In the year 2002, there was a further development when the drug eluting stents came where there is a medicine on the impregnated on the stent and that prevents reoccurrence or growth of tissues inside the stents. So nowadays the stents which are being used all over the world, majority of the stents I would say 70 to 80 percent in some of the organizations are …which are coated with drugs, which are called drug eluting stents.”

Cardiology in India

“Patients I have treated coming from Nigeria, coming from Kenya and lot of patients come from Bangladesh and Nepal.

These are the local kind of international patients like…., Nigeria, Tanzania. Patients have been coming from these areas either with the coronary artery disease, with blockages requiring angioplasty or some of them have required high end device implantations like , what we call it as, combo device which is a combination of heart failure device and a defibrillator. Those patients have been given combo devices.

We have all the latest modern medicine equipment and the all cutting edge technologies are available in this hospital. In fact we here, kind of, get technology somehow before the United States of America where the FD has to pass a particular procedure which takes a long time. Here we get adapted to that very soon.”

In the video, the cardiac surgeon speaks about his education, experience and balloon angioplasty, pacemaker surgery and implantation techniques. He throws light on the significance of pacemaker and balloon angioplasty accompanied by stent.

Due to the high traffic in the western countries like America and UK, medical tourists from overseas are exploring countries where they can avail good treatments at inexpensive prices. Check out this interview with a reputed orthopedic surgeon from India. He specializes in orthopedic surgeries including knee replacement, hip replacement, shoulder and elbow replacement surgery.

Following is the narration.

Education and Experience in Orthopedics

“I trained in India initially in my post graduation along with my under graduation. I then went off to work in England where I worked for 11 years. I have hence got my qualifications from England which includes FRCS and FRCS in orthopedics. I also finished my surgical training in UK which is the common European register for, which certifies me being able to work and operate anywhere within Europe itself.

I have attended many international conferences, both in Europe, America as well as in India. We also organize a lot of arthroscopy, arthop[lasty conferences within India itself. In fact in next few days we are going to have a shoulder conference on the similar theme. My publications are there in clinical orthopedics and some other journals of international repute.

My main interest as far as orthopedic surgery is concerned is to do with adult joint reconstruction which basically includes joint replacements of hip, knee and ankle. I also do a lot of work on deformity corrections including the use of stainless special frames. My other interests are foot surgery and hand surgery.”

Orthopedic Procedures in India

“In foot surgery because of my previous training, I do a lot of hallux valgus which is the bunion surgery and correction of deformities in the feet and also surgeries involving robotic feet and paralytic feet. We are practicing in India now for about 3 years where I have done very well and have had a lot of patients come from almost all over the world. Our major concentration seems to be coming from parts of Asia and Africa but we have always had some patients regularly coming in from the United States of America. Within India itself we get patients from almost whole of the north part of the country have come to us for treatment with various problems.

Prior to moving to India, about 3 years back, I stayed and worked in New Castle upon a time in England in the Bristol region. I worked in somewhere about 12 hospitals in these places. My experience there was initially as a trainee and then becoming a registrar and then followed on with that. With fellowships and in hip surgery, knee surgery and deformity correction surgery for the lower limbs.

One of the reasons for our success working as a unit in this hospital has been getting together of a group of like minded individuals who complemented each other because of the different training backgrounds and different training interests. Because of this we actually cover the whole spectrum of orthopedics. Not of that because of different backgrounds we actually complement each other with the deficiencies in one person might have.

So our strength lies in be able to work together, to in fact operate together at most times and also a cohesive atmosphere in which all of us actually discuss and debate cases with a very open mind rather than having a direct approach to any patient.

Essential thing for most successful surgeries is good decision making. Most of the surgeries themselves are actually not that difficult and what we do is, we are trying to do is give a very comprehensive assessment to the patient so that they can be assessed properly and get their proper treatment. Even at the end of the treatment the contact with the patient is maintained throughout. We all access our emails regularly. We regularly keep on sending feedbacks to the patients and keep on getting feedback from them. Regarding what they should be doing.

It’s not happened very often but once or twice that people have come back to us with some problems or something. We have always an open attitude to actually sort out their problems. It’s not the end of the treatment when we come to give in the treatment once the operation is done. It’s almost lifelong association that we build with the patient.”

In this video, an Indian surgeon talks about his education and experience in the field of orthopedics. He highlights his basic interests on orthopedics include ACL repair, foot surgery and ankle surgery.
With internationally trained doctors and state-of-the-art hospitals, India offers orthopedic surgeries at an affordable cost. Besides India, ACL repair in Mexico and Costa Rica is also pocket friendly.

Renowned Indian urologist talks about the penile Implant surgery. India has one of the most experienced surgeons who are internationally acclaimed for their procedures. Check out what this expert in penile implant treatment says about his experience and specialization.

Surgeon’s Education and Experience

“ I have done my basic medical education from King George’s Medical College, Lucknow and thereafter finishing my basic medical education, I did a training in general surgery for three years. Then I further trained in general surgery for a year which is registrarship. At the same time I started training in urology. This was way back in 1997. Thereafter, I did my super specialization from Jawaharlal Institute of Post Graduate Medical Education and Research in Pondicherry.

So I started working in that field and I manage to do more than 1500 operations now for laser prostrate, more than 2,500 operations for kidney stones, more than 1500 operations for ureteric stones, lithotripsy’s, laparoscopy and now since I have joined the hospital which provides me a facility for Da-Vinci, so now I went to France for Da-Vinci prostatectomy and we are doing robotic prostatectomy here also.

I have attended conferences in US definitely and this was in 2006 I presented papers in Cleveland clinic. This conference was world end congress of endourology. Again in 2007 I presented papers. My paper was chosen as one of the highlight paper which got published in the journal of endourology that was Laparoscopic Pyeloplasty along with percutaneous nephrolithotomy.

I have done live workshops in South Korea. I have operated in more than 10 hospitals in South Korea, demonstrated live surgeries. I have performed live operation in world video endourology congress in Malaysia. Last year I have performed a live laser prostatectomy there. I have involved training several delegations from different parts of South East Asian countries like from South Korea, Singapore, from Indonesia in laser prostatectomy.”

Laser Prostatectomy

“In most people, over the age of 60 years, they need some sort of attention to the prostate. Prostate keeps on growing with age and cause urinary symptoms. The prostate can be enlarged due to the normal enlargement process or it could be cancerous. You all know that there is blood investigation called prostate specific antigen. We recommend all males to undergo after the age of 50 years so as to be able to detect prostate cancer in time.

So now once we have found that the prostate is enlarged and it requires surgery and there are basically two categories – cancerous and non cancerous. So for non cancerous prostate enlargement there are several types of operations. The conventional one being and still the gold standard being transurethral resectional prostate which is commonly called TURP or turp. This operation is done endoscopically. There are no cuts; no stitches and we go through the penis. We go into the prostate and we take out pieces of prostate as we dig out into a big chunk of ice-cream when we take out scoops of prostate from there. At the end of it there is a catheter which stays for about 48-72 hours and there are chances of bleeding and there are certain complications associated with it. Therefore, the new thing that arrived just to counter the complications of standard turp is “Laser prostatectomy”.

Now once laser comes there are several types of lasers available in the market by which you can do prostatectomy but the two most prominent lasers are holmium laser – enucleation of prostate and second is the green light or KTP laser prostatectomy. The basic difference between the two is the holmium laser can remove 90 percent of the prostate whereas green light evaporates the prostate and it becomes difficult to remove larger prostates with that. Green light is also costlier than holmium laser.

The benefits of both the lasers are nearly the same. Holmium laser having an edge that it can take care of any size of the prostate and green light is slightly at the lower side there because it cannot deal with bigger prostates that effectively plus it appears more costly also because the fibers that you use during the prostatectomy, they are consumed and they have to be, they cannot be reused. So you have to keep, for bigger prostate…..2 or 3 fibers that adds to the cost of the procedure. So, for big prostates – holmium laser, for smaller prostates – green light laser, for any size of prostate – holmium laser.

If you have bladder stone along with prostate – holmium laser because holmium laser is capable of dealing with stones as well as prostates.”

In this video, a leading urologist from India talks about Nerve-Sparing Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy and, his experience and specialization in the field. He has done laparoscopic radical prostatectomy as well as robotic laparoscopic radical prostatectomy and has given several live demonstrations and workshops. He also talks about use of lasers to do prostatectomy and explains the use of two prominent lasers in performing different procedures.

The skyrocketing prices of penile implant surgery in many western countries are forcing people to look for cheaper options in other countries. For people considering affordable prostatectomy abroad, India , Mexico, Turkey and Costa Rica could be good options.

Check out what this leading urologist from India speaks about the prostate problems and Da vinci system. Da vinci system is quite a new way of treating prostate cancer. It is less complicated.
The surgeon also specializes in penile implant surgery.Prostate problems can be cured by various ways like medication, exercises, artificial urinary sphincter implantation, slinks.

Following is the video narration

Localized Cancer Prostate – Da Vinci Treatment

“If it is a localized cancer prostate then you know it after your test that it is a localized cancer prostate. You could either go for an open prostatectomy which is now going to be a thing of past. You could go for a laparoscopic radical prostatectomy or the-state-of-the-art new thing is robotic assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy which is being done by the da vinci system  and probably more than 70 percent of the prostatectomy in the US currently are being done by the da vinci robot.

So this is the in thing and it is more precise, the hospital stay is less and surgery is definitely more advantageous.”

Urinary Incontinence in Men and Women

“If the urinary incontinence is involuntary leakage of urine without your knowledge or without your control and you cough and sneeze, the urine comes out or you have to rush to the toilet and urine comes out, you have to look into the specific causes of it. In males most of the urinary incontinence may be due to prostate problems or it may be a result of the prostatic surgery. And the initial ways to control the urinary incontinence in males could be medication, certain exercises but in case the urinary incontinence still persists to a problematic degree in the male, you have to resort to an artificial urinary sphincter implantation.

In females the urinary incontinence may be due to several reasons, due to multiple child births, trauma or we call it the stress incontinence that if you cough and sneeze at least or you rush to the toilet, you cannot hold before you reach the toilet , that’s overactive bladder or urgent incontinence in women.

We have got a variety of operations so that there are certain slinks which are made of plastic material, which you can put beneath the urethra. It’s a 20 minutes operation under local anesthesia and the urinary incontinence which is predominantly stressed urinary incontinence is taken care of.

In case there are certain other bigger reasons for urinary incontinence, in women also we can put artificial sphincters but in women mostly we see that urinary incontinence is stressed urinary incontinence which can be very well be taken care of by putting slinks.

We have slinks for male urinary incontinence also but in terms of its efficacy, the one stop shop would be an artificial urinary sphincter that can be implanted. And the classical example would be a male who has undergone a prostatic surgery and especially a prostate surgery for cancer prostate where he needs a urinary sphincter after the surgery.”

Benign Implants

“Benign implants are required for people who have fake thus lesser…….., you must have heard of Viagra which is a medicine used for erectalis functions. So there is a lot of big population who has erectalis function resulting out of diabetes or other cardio vascular diseases, any vascular disease that could lead to impotence or surgical interventions, for example, a radical prostatectomy for cancer prostate or may be radiation or a surgery for bladder cancer which is called as cystoprostatectomy.

So there is a huge population of patients who suffer erectilus function primarily because of medical problems and as a result of some surgical intervention also. So these a good chunk of these patients can be helped by medical means for example Viagra tablets like viagra cialis or certain injections like muse or caverject and certain vacuum erection devices that are available in the market but there is a good population of patients who are not helped by these things so then the next option is benign implant in which we put, there are several types of benign implants. There are two piece implants, there are three piece implants and there is a simple rod like implant which can be inserted in the penis and the patient can hide, he can bend the penis while he is wearing his trousers and when he is on the job he can simple straighten the penis and get on with it.

And whereas in the three piece implants there are certain buttons which are hidden in his …… and he can press the button and the penis becomes erect, again presses the button penis goes down. So this is how these implants work and the surgery is about an hour. Its not a mutilating surgery, it’s a very simple surgery and the implants, they come with a lifelong guarantee and now I am told that the guarantee is about approximately about five to ten years but you do get a guarantee card. Any part of the mechanical function that goes on with device is taken care of.

The most important complications can be infection that can necessitate even implant removal, so we take all precautions to avoid that.”

Indian gynaecologists are some of the best experienced doctors in the world. Not only this, their services can be availed at comparatively less amount of money. If you are a medical tourist seeking myomectomy at pocket friendly prices, then you can consider myomectomy in India. Check out what this expert has to say about it.

Myomectomy Procedure

“Myomectomies are an operation which a woman once has; these are women who have got large swellings in the uterus. These are non cancerous and these things can grow in any part of the uterus and the problem which women face are mostly due to either with heavy bleeding or in younger patients, the inability to conceive.

So these are the problems which women usually come to us with and the women who find a lot of problems are the ones who are distressed by infertility, inability to conceive and this is the treatment which I really would, I really enjoy in the sense that myomectomy is a very simple operation to do and once fibroids are removed, then these patients have a very good chance of having a pregnancy. It was because of the fibroids they were not able to conceive.”

Open and Laparoscopic Procedure

“This surgery is being offered either as a open procedure in which the patient comes, has a small cut which is a bikini like cut and we go in, take out the fibroids, stitch the uterus back in place so no problems with the fallopian tubes or ovaries and once it happens, the patient can conceive after about an year or so is the time which I allow for the healing to take place.

The other approach is a laparoscopic approach which is a keyhole approach. This is suitable for patients who have smaller fibroids or less number of fibroids. The stitching of the uterus has to be done in the best way so that once the patient conceives then they don’t have any problems. So this is what is absolutely essential to ensure and this is what I would asses a patient once I see the reports, examine the patient and once I am confident that this is what the approach I would like to take. Then I would advise about them about either a laparoscopic approach is suitable for them or a normal approach.”

Success Stories of Myomectomies in India

“Recently one of my patients conceived after myomectomy which I was very pleased about and she was having secondary fertility, she had a child six years back and a year back I did a surgery. She was not getting pregnant and she has conceived. So that is extremely satisfying for these patients whom you can do things and the myomectomy as a procedure is very well tolerated. And the patient needs to stay in for about two to four days depending on if it’s a laparoscopic surgery, they can leave early. But with open surgery still we would allow them to go home on second or third day and the recovery is excellent. So this is what is a good method to do.

There are patients who are coming from different commissions and different varieties of patients. Certainly see the patients coming for, from the South Africa they come for fibroid surgery and these, because that is very common there, in black I think this is something which has a trend and a common thing. Lot of … and things, patients who are living in India are having problems, so they would come and get the tests done.

Lot of people from the high commission because I was trained in UK and I was working in the UK so the European countries, the way of working, the way of managing the patients in an evidence based manner is very ingrained into me. So this is how I manage any patient. Whatever is required, you have to be very thorough with them right from A to Z. This is what is required and this is what you have to filter out”

In this video, the gynecologist speaks about myomectomy in India, its procedure, methods scope and success stories. Myomectomy can be cured by either open surgery or through laparoscopic procedure. Both are successful methods. Nonetheless the patient, who is operated upon through laparoscopic method, needs less recovery time.

The skyrocketing prices of myomectomy in many developed countries are forcing people to look for cheaper options in other countries. For people considering affordable myomectomy abroad, India, Mexico, Costa Rica, Turkey, Jordan, Thailand could be good options.

Stem cell transplantation is a complicated procedure and centers offering this procedure are very few in the world; therefore, it is very expensive. But patients may consider stem cell treatment in India. Thanks to its high quality surgical packages at reasonable rates as compared to US and other western countries. Check out what this surgeon from India has to say about his experience in stem cell transplantation.

Stem Cell Surgeon- Video Narration

“I did my residency in fellowship in United States, in a hospital in New Jersey. I did my residency in internal medicine followed by three years of fellowship in haematology oncology and during my fellowship period I again additional expertise in treatment of leukemia and bone marrow stem cell transplantation.

I have been in US for 14 yrs, from 1995 to 2009. During my fellowship days and in immediate period after that I had several publications in the field on nonablative stem cell transplantation which is frequently referred to as mini transplantation and that field of stem cells transplantation was evolving at that time and I was luck y to be in this hospital in New Jersey, where we were initially one of very few centres in the world at that time investigating on roll of nonmyeloablative stem cell transplantation……….. are treated by chemotherapy and there are several malingnancies like leukemia, lymphoma, hotchkins disease, diseases like plastic anemia which many times cannot be cured by chemotherapy alone.

Stem cell transplantation- Autologous and Allogeneic.

Now in such cases where diseases cannot be cured with chemotherapy alone or they come back after chemotherapy, then there is only one option left that is stem cells transplantation and stem cells transplantations are broadly of two types.

In autologous stem cell transplant patients get their own stem cells back, you know about collection, about a month earlier and then they get high doses of chemotherapy, they get their own stem cells back, that is called autologous stem cell transplant. It is safer to do, less complicated but at the same time it is effective in diseases like lymphoma and hotchkins disease.

In allogeneic stem cell transplantation, you need to get stem cells from a different individual. It is usually a sibling who is the donor because of the HLA matching required. And siblings can be a source of stem cells of bone marrow which is usually given again after high doses of chemotherapy. In nonmyeloablative transplantation, after lower doses of chemotherapy stem cells are given and we depend on donor immune system to fight the disease after transplantation. So stem cells transplantation is a key area in the treatment of haematology malignancy. It has been practiced for nearly 40 years all over the world and it is complicated.

Procedure in India

It is pretty expensive because of prolonged hospitalization required, lot of laboratory testing required, and lot of antibiotics which are used, which are pretty expensive many times because of risk from bacterial fungal viral infections. So stem cell transplantation is done at very few hospitals. It is because the training programs are few.

One definite advantage of doing a …. Transplantation in India is that it can be done at fraction of the cost and also in young states Europe, UK, Canada, Japan, the cost of every stem cell transplantation can easily run into hundred thousand to quarter million dollars, particularly the allogeneic transplantation which is more complicated. So there is a very high cost barrier.”

This video shows stem cell transplantation surgeon from India sharing his experience about the procedures. After working in USA for 14years, he mastered in chemotherapy and stem cells treatment. Today, he has a huge network of curing stem cells patients from eastern and western countries.
Due to prolonged hospitalization required for stem cells transplantation, it costs heavy on one’s pocket, says the surgeon. Indian hospitals with state-of-art technology and internationally trained doctors, offer the treatment at pocket friendly prices. It has become the primary reason why medical tourists from different countries fly to India for their treatment.

Nuss procedure in India is significantly cheaper than in many western countries. The country is home to many experienced surgeons who have international work experience. Check out what this expert in nuss procedure surgery says about his experience.

Following is the video narration.

Education and Expertise of Nuss Procedure Surgeon, India

“Basic education from Bhopal, MBBS. Post graduation and residency from All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi and a fellowship in thoracic surgery from Korea University medical centre in Seoul. During this period I have mastered one technique, that’s the pectus excavatum surgery.

After my education I worked at a few places in India, that’s in Shillong, it’s in the eastern part of India. I was working there as a professor in surgery and after that I had again gone out for my fellowship in South Korea. So I was there working in Korea University of Medical Centre.

Regarding the procedures and thoracic surgery, our emphasis has been mainly on minimal access procedure, that’s what you call as thoracoscopy. We do assisted thoracic surgery. So basically we are dealing with all cases of thoracic diseases, there is bone benign and malignant excluding the heart. Our focus is on lung surgery using the minimal access technique, then other conditions of chest wall that’s very importantly I would say “pectus excavatum surgery” which I think not many centers are doing in the world. There are few selected centres.

Minimal Invasive Sunken Chest Procedure

In the Pectus excavatum we are doing the minimal access technique which is a modified nuss procedure so this technique we are able to correct defects which are both symmetrical and difficult one that is called asymmetrical defects, which is a complex thing. So we offer these to both – the pediatric group as well as the teenager group and also in selected cases for the adult patients. This is a technique which has evolved over time and we are using the least invasive and a very safe procedure which is a modified technique using endoscopy.

Doing my mentorship that time, there were many patients from the US side, Canada, China, from Japan and of course a lot from south East Asia because they were not able to find much centres in their own places who could give a very good results, because not everybody’s practicing this minimal access technique. We have the hole technique that sort of each technique which is open surgery, that is more commercial, more morbid. So most of the patients who had pediatric age group. Its basically 50-50, pediatric age groups and teenager groups. The teenagers were mainly who were ……….in early stages and once they have reached the age of teenage, they realize that they have got some defects because it is the defects, its not just cosmetic, its physiological as well as psychological. There are three things we have….. – Cosmetic, physiologically it restricts the function of the lungs; psychologically the impact is on the person. He is shy, he doesn’t mingle up, he has got a complex in him. It’s basically a disease which has got three components, again I would say – cosmetic is differently what you all think about but there are two other aspects. One is physiological and psychological part.”

Renowned neuro-radiologist from India talks about liberation therapy for CCSVI in MS patients. He also shares his education and experience.

Liberation Therapy for CCSVI – Surgeon Interview Narration

“I am a trained international neuro-radiologist, my 100 percent of practicing now focusing on neuro-vascular procedures. And we treat brain aneurysms, brain arteriovenous malformations. We do Thrombolysis and Acute Stroke. We do carotid or any other brain arterio angioplasty as well.

Other procedures we do – we do liberation procedure for CCSVI, for patients in MS, which is an ongoing study in our institution. I was trained as a radiologist and then I was trained as neuro-radiologist, I became faculty in All India Institute of Medical Sciences, which is one of the most premiere research and teaching institution in the country. After working there as faculty I resigned. Now I head the interventional neuro-radiology unit.

I have done short time fellowships abroad in Green Clinic as well as in France and Paris, and I have over 50 publications, including 30 international publications to my name. I am a visiting professor in the University of Massachusetts in Boston.

Mainly, I focus on neuro-vascular procedures, so we do Embolization for brain aneurysm; we do Embolization for brain arteriovenous malformations. We do angioplasty for carotid artery or intervene angioplasty for intervene atherosclerosis.

We are also doing Thrombolysis treatment for acute stroke patients. Besides this we also do Tumor Embolization Vertebroplasty and there is a big study going on in our hospital for liberation treatment for the CCSVI patient with multiple sclerosis. So we have been doing quite a few of liberation procedures as well.

CCSVI

CCSVI is a newly proposed disease entity in which the theory is that there are some venous narrowing’s in the veins leading to brain and spine, and they are contributing to multiple sclerosis and worsening the multiple sclerosis patients. The proposed hypothesis is that once we do angioplasty or stenting of these veins, and we improve the flow then these patients can benefit and this procedure is known as the liberation procedure. So in this procedure we do a complete evaluation, we have a team which involves a neurologist to focus on multiple sclerosis treatment, physiotherapist, neuro-radiologist, and of course I am the neuro-interventionist.

Liberation Procedure

So we do a complete neurology evaluation, brain Doppler study, neck Doppler study for the vein, MRI of the brain and MR venography and then the angiography for the brain veins- the jugular veins and the azygous veins and if we find narrowing’s, generally we treat them angioplasty and then of course we do a follow up, I mean we do Doppler to look for the improved flow, and we are following up these patients, whether they really benefit from this procedure or not.

There is tremendous interest in the patient community as well as the medical community in this disease entity. All of us know that we didn’t have a real definite treatment for multiple sclerosis and which strikes patients in their prime of their life.

Generally, it is a progressive disease. After studying many patients I feel that there seems to be some link between multiple sclerosis and in many patients we finding venous stenosis in them. So I think there is some link but we are also guarded in saying that definitely this is causing because I think we should wait for the more longer term studies.

But I think under a study protocol this can be offered to the patients of multiple sclerosis provided they understand that we are still awaiting long term trials and long term results will take few years for show up the long term results.”

In this video, neuro-surgeon from India hashes out his education, experience and CCSVI liberation procedure. He also explains CCSVI and venous angioplasty in liberation treatment.

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons website, plastic surgery in India may have very old accounts, dating back to as early as 800 BC when ancient Indian physicians performed skin grafting. The expertise of the present-day Indian plastic surgeons may very well make these early physicians proud, as this South Asian country is becoming one of the world’s top medical tourism destinations.

Plastic Surgery Hospitals and Surgeons in India

Hundreds of patients from all around the world go to India every year to avail the services from India’s best plastic surgery hospitals and surgeons. With today’s high-tech mediums like the internet, word of mouth spreads like wildfire. Encouraged by glowing feedback collected from previous patients, more and more people are becoming open to the idea of having plastic surgery away from their home country.

Considering that first world countries in North America and Europe charge exorbitantly for the same procedures, no wonder that countries like India are increasingly becoming popular for patients. The cost of cosmetic surgery in India can be as low as 40% of its regular cost in the US or the UK. However, the quality of healthcare medical tourists receive in India is comparable to the first world countries.

With the recent escalation of the medical tourism industry, internationally-accredited hospitals have sprung up, with entire medical tourism departments dedicated to serving foreign patients. Its wealth of internationally-trained surgeons is another attraction, with their skills and experience and fluency in English becoming a huge draw to medical tourists from all over the globe.

Medical Tourism in India

Indian medical tourism is among the fastest-growing industries in the world. Tourists may consider various striking spots they can go to, while on a medical holiday. The culturally-rich India has a spell-binding beauty that draws foreigners – from pristine beaches to awe-inspiring religious temples. The Taj Mahal in Agra alone – perhaps one of the most recognizable structures in the world – draws an average of 3 million tourists every year.

Medical tourists who want an extremely smooth trip planning enlist the help of medical tourism agencies. The most reputable companies have connections to the most experienced plastic surgeons in India, as well as the best hospitals to go to. Aside from the ability to provide assistance from airport-hotel-hospital transfers to cheap hotel accommodations in India, they are also able to coordinate with hospitals to provide an itinerary that will accommodate both medical visits and tourist activities. With the help of the right medical tourism agency, plastic surgery in India can become both business and pleasure for any medical tourist.

An anesthesiologist is a peri-operative physician who helps surgeons before, during and after the surgery. Most anesthesiologists in India are well educated and trained in delivering anesthesia to patients all most in all surgical procedures including neuro radiology, cardio vascular surgery, joint replacement surgery like knee replacement surgery and gastrointestinal surgery. Check out this video of a anesthesiologist who speaks about his education and experience.

Education and Experience – Video Narration

“I am a graduate from Amritsar Medical College, way back in 1972, so my background is extensive. In anesthesia I am there from 77, so almost 33 years of experience. I have the administrative experience for last 10 years. I am also the director of anesthesia and pain management and ICU in healthcare. Today I am working as the medical director and head of the department of anesthesia and pain management. It is a proposed 550 bedded hospital.”

Pain Management Anesthesiology India

“It’s the biggest corporate hospital of northern or north west part of Delhi. 258 beds is the building you are seeing constructed. It has got specific areas where it specializes that is the neurosurgical area, the cardiac area, the gastro intestinal area, the intensive care area, neonatology area and it has laparoscopic surgeries as one of the important highlights along with the intensive care facilities.

We have got about 19 bedded surgical ICU’s and 21 bedded medical ICU’s with isolation rooms. The ICU’s here are of the international standards as per the area specification.

It’s a protocol oriented hospital, quality being the top area which is being monitored and practiced round the clock that is 24 by 7 and I think we want to make a mark not only in this area in Delhi but across the world as a hospital where protocols are followed and quality oriented results are given.

If you will come across this hospital, you walk across the ICUs, even in the wards you will find hand hygiene will be practiced at each and every step. Not only it is practiced, it is monitored, documented and reviewed on regular basis. All our activities inside the hospital, whichever activity it may be, that’s an invasive procedure.

Every activity in the hospital is constantly monitored. We have two infection control nurses who monitor each and every patient round the clock. Every intervenous line whether it is a peripheral line or central line or it’s a urinary catheter or a patient is on ventilator. All aspects are monitored to prevent infection and in the event of any infection taking place, that also is documented, monitored and audited. So as a result if you find somewhere we have gone wrong in any of the practices, we improve.

Super specialty where we are going to focus as far as international patient is concerned, it’s a hospital which is going to work as a cardiac centre where both the cardiology and the cardio vascular surgery is going to be a dominant field. Neuro surgical procedures in the interventional neuro radiology is going to figure once again.

Joint replacement is another area where we can entertain our international patients and I think the satisfaction of this joint replacement patients is going to be, I will say far superior than you will find other hospital because of the patients walked in pain and walked out without pain. So that is a great experience which an international patient is likely to face.

Then our gastrointestinal surgery department is an excellent department where we have highly trained people who are going to deliver very good results and in due course of time we are having probably for renal transplant and liver transplant.

Now this is a hospital which has got thirteen operation theaters. We have on one floor eight operation theaters which are all made to the international specifications and very well equipped operations theaters where we can probably deliver the best which can be done in any part of the world.

It’s a specific hospital which is going to promote a day care centre and as we know that the day care surgeries are on the increase so this is the hospital which will have an edge especially for international patients who probably will be able to stay even if they have to come for small procedures from abroad. They get their job done and go back to their settings in the hotel and be more comfortable and they can come back next day if a follow up is required.”

In this video, an anesthesiologist from a very renowned hospital in Delhi is sharing his experience as an anesthesiologist. Many Indian hospitals provide services at par with those in US and other western countries. As medical services are offered at low prices as compared to western countries, medical tourist from US and Europe fly to India for various medical treatments.
