Patient Story

Hello! My name is Mrs. Emole, I am a Nigerian citizen. Recently I had my Disc Nucleus Replacement Surgery in India. It was an excellent opportunity for me to get rid of my constant back pain through the most professionally managed medical consultant- Forerunners Healthcare Group, who left no stone unturned during my surgery in India. Kudos for their incredible support and care they carried out during my Disc Nucleus Replacement Surgery in India . Otherwise, my life was amidst a deep mess with back pain wrecking all havoc. I was totally lost, and my life was badly hampered, usually I was seen over the bed for long time. I consulted my doctor, who referred to an orthopedic surgeon. After a couple of physical and medical examination, the doctor suggested me to have my Disc Nucleus Replacement Surgery. However, I knew the dearth of good quality medical expert who can fix my medical ailment. However, the good ones were seen expensive and had long queue. So I asked my daughter to check for options abroad. She thoroughly checked it over the internet, and found that Disc Nucleus Replacement Surgery in India is the most viable solution both in terms of quality and budget. Her further search led her to a medical consultant called Forerunners Healthcare Group which seemed offering good packages for Disc Nucleus Replacement Surgery in India with better facilities and promising price. She called them up discussed my case in detail, shared my medical reports to them. They got it studied by their expert panel and offered me a tailor made package which at price quiet less. So without any further delay, we applied for the medical visa and within a week the procedure was done and we were soon seen moving for my Disc Nucleus Replacement Surgery in India.
