Patient name: Mrs. Erica Jenita Pool

Country: Seychelles

⁠Treatment: Knee Replacement Surgery 

⁠Hospital:   Fortis Memorial Research Institute, Gurgaon

Doctor: Dr. Subhash Jangid

Mrs. Erica, a mother from Seychelles, had been struggling with severe knee pain for some years, as what started as mild discomfort gradually turned into sharp, debilitating pain that affected her mobility and daily life. Simple tasks like walking, bending, or even sitting for long periods became impossible.

Mrs. Erica consulted doctors in Seychelles, but despite multiple treatments and medications, her condition did not improve. She was advised that surgery might be necessary, but finding the right facility with advanced technology and experienced surgeons was challenging. That’s when Mrs. Erica and her family began exploring medical tourism in India.

After extensive research, they decided to travel to India for her treatment. Through careful guidance and support from Al Afiya Medi Tour, a trusted medical tourism provider in India, she was then connected with FMRI, Gurgaon, one of India’s leading healthcare institutions, by the team after reviewing her reports. 

Upon her arrival, she was welcomed by a dedicated international patient care team who assisted her with everything, from hospital admission to accommodation arrangements. She felt reassured knowing she would be guided every step of the way.

At Fortis Hospital, Mrs. Erica was evaluated by Dr. Subhash Jangid, a highly skilled orthopedic surgeon with years of experience in complex spinal procedures. After reviewing her medical history, imaging reports, and the severity of her condition, Dr. Subhash explained that she required knee replacement surgery to relieve nerve compression and stabilize her knee. He outlined the procedure, risks, recovery plan, and the expected improvement in her quality of life. Mrs. Erica and her family felt confident in his expertise and decided to proceed with the surgery.

After the successful surgery, Mrs. Erica began noticing significant relief and simple movements that had been impossible before surgery, such as walking short distances and bending slightly, became manageable. The hospital’s physiotherapy team worked closely with her, gradually increasing her mobility and strength.

By the time of discharge, Mrs. Erica was completely pain-free and able to perform daily activities independently. She expressed immense gratitude to the Al Afiya Medi Tour team and Dr. Subhash Jangid and the entire team at Fortis Hospital for their professionalism, empathy, and world-class care. The seamless coordination, from initial consultation to recovery guidance, made her journey as comfortable and stress-free as possible.
