Thank you STC, for arranging my diagnosis and treatment at Apollo Hospitals, Colombo, Sri Lanka. Colombo is indeed one of the most beautiful cities I have visited. I was pleasantly surprised at the speed and efficiency of the service that I received at the hospital. The investigations for which I had waited for several months in Canada were all completed within three days of my arrival. I have realized that, had I not utilized your services in the nick of time my health would have deteriorated considerably. I have now been given a treatment plan and will return to Canada after a few days of rest in this beautiful land. Thank you once again.

Birmingham Hip Resurfacing, February 2006

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In May 2005 I discovered that I had developed degenerative disc problems in my cervical spine. This is part of the aging process, but in my case the degeneration was further compounded by the fact that I had developed poor posture from sitting over a computer for long hours. A cervical x-ray was taken to determine the cause of my extremely severe pain in the left shoulder arm and fingers. My GP prescribed narcotic painkillers for me. My family doctor made a referral for me to see a Neuro Surgeon so that options could be explored. Well that was eight months ago. As of the present time, I am told it might be another 2-3 months before my appointment. Living on narcotic painkillers really messed me up big time. I knew some thing had to be done, but what? I do not know any important people who could help me out.

In November 2005, I read an interesting article in Readers Digest called Sun, Surf and Surgery. This article basically said that there are alternatives to the long consultation and surgery wait lists that are now infamous in Canada. After reading the article twice or so, I contacted Yasmeen Sayeed, of Surgical Tourism Canada in Vancouver. Yasmeen very clearly indicated that there are options available to ordinary working Canadians.

After a few e-mails and lengthy phone conversations, including one from Dr. Sajan Hegde, Consultant Spine Surgeon, who called me at home for a forty five minute discussion on the type of surgery that he could perform. After that call, I knew that I had to do something. I was to take a monster step in my life and travel to India for surgery. India, that is on the other side of the world, so far from my little New Brunswick town. Yasmeen Sayeed, in no uncertain terms was my guiding light through the whole process. She reassured me countless times that I would do well. Yasmeen, in my mind is an extremely dedicated and extremely caring individual.

Upon arrival at the Apollo Hospital in Chennai, my every concern was addressed. It was not uncommon to have five to seven senior medical staff in my room at one time. They would be checking me over for the next test or asking what I wished for dinner or just checking up on me.

I can honestly say that my surgeon, Dr, Sajan Hegde is a top-notch surgeon, who is extremely knowledgeable and a truly caring professional. He went the extra mile for me.

I cannot say enough about the hospital staff from the nurses who are all young but qualified registered nurses, to the coordinator of the International patient program, every one was extremely helpful and kind. Upon discharge, the hospital transferred me to one of the nicest hotels in Chennai for a few days, and then I was taken to a five star resort about one hour from the city for further recovery. In closing, I can say it was truly a lifetime experience.

I used the services of Yasmeen at Surgical Tourism Canada for my BHR. Dr. Bose, from the Apollo Hospitals, Chennai, did a BHR on my left hip. I cannot say enough about Dr. Bose, from his surgical Expertise to his kind patient personality. My scar, if you can find it because it is hard to see is 11 cm or just under 4.5 inches. The hospital staff are unbelievably kind. They are always concerned. When a person rings the nurse call button a nurse comes in less than a minute and usually less than 30 seconds. Anyone who is considering Hip resurfacing out of the country should consider India very seriously. Just to be clear about something, wages are cheaper in India so there is always a staff person looking to help you if you want. All the people that I have met here in India have been unbelievably nice. Very soft spoken, kind, understanding and ready to serve. If there is any thought that because India is less expensive it may not be as good, I would like to say you can go elsewhere and pay more but you will be throwing your money away. After having completed my BHR I can honestly say that I would not go anywhere else. I have to really, really express my gratitude to Yasmeen and Dr. Bose. They both certainly went way, way, way above and beyond spending extra time making me feel totally comfortable. EC., Abbottsford, British Columbia, Birmingham Hip Resurfacing, October, 2005

I had my master health check done recently at Apollo Hospitals through the services of STC. In less than 3 hours I was checked up completely, Physical, Blood work, X-ray, ECG, Ultrasound, MRI and the latest technology has to offer, a 64 slice CT scan. Extremely professional and efficient team. It was almost impossible or a very long wait to get an appointment from the Specialist here at home and my health was deteriorating rapidly. These tests would have taken me at least 6-8 months to do here in Canada. My Physician could prescribe medicines immediately. This is the best money I have ever spent.

I am biking, hiking, running.. These simple joys of life was a distant dream for me just a few months ago. I had my hips resurfaced at Apollo and I am enjoying my life again. I am Sure that STC will be the Beacon of Hope in providing such services to people in pain. Congratulations! MLR, California, USA Birmingham Hip Resurfacing, June 2005

From the moment I arrived at Chennai airport, Apollo hospital and their staff treated me with utmost professionalism and care, they picked me up at the airport, had hotels before and after surgery organized and anticipated any questions I had. The hospital is as clean and hygienic as any I have seen in the western world, the staff is friendly and competent Communication is not a problem since everybody speaks English. The choice and quality of food is excellent. The hip surgeon, Dr. Vijay Bose is my all-time hero, since he gave me a new lease on life and not one day goes by that I don't thank him for what he did for me. After having been faced with a 2-3 year wait for surgery in Canada, going to Apollo hospital n Chennai was the best and only choice for me. I wish Surgical Tourism Canada the very best in their venture and I am sure they will be able to help many Canadians like me. Best regards. TR, Golden, British Columbia.
