Overview

Aueudad, a 51-year-old patient from Nigeria, suffered from severe heart failure, a life-threatening condition that required immediate medical attention. He learned about ClinicSpots through the internet and understood that it serves as a bridge connecting patients with highly experienced doctors.  Then her family contacted us for assistance and sought expert medical advice and affordable treatment options in India.

Diagnosis and Decision

After contacting ClinicSpots, Aueudad was connected with Dr. Rajiv Kumar Rajput, a renowned cardiologist at Apollo Delhi. Dr. Rajput thoroughly evaluated and recommended an AICD (Automatic Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator) implantation surgery. This device helps to regulate irregular heartbeats and prevent sudden cardiac arrest. Before travelling, Aueudad underwent preliminary tests in Nigeria, coordinated by ClinicSpots, to ensure he was fit for the journey and the subsequent treatment.

Treatment Journey

ClinicSpots provided comprehensive support throughout Aueudad's treatment journey, including 

  • arranging airport pickup, 
  • accommodation, and 
  • local transportation. 

Upon arrival in India, Aueudad underwent a four day hospital stay for the AICD implantation surgery. The procedure was successful, and the device effectively managed his heart condition. Thanks to the facilitation and support provided by ClinicSpots and the hospital, the initial high treatment costs were significantly reduced to INR 13.5 lakhs.

Recovery and Outcome

Post-surgery, Aueudad experienced a significant improvement in his health. He remained in Delhi for additional follow-ups and monitoring to ensure the AICD was functioning correctly. The healthcare team provided continuous care and guidance, contributing to a smooth recovery process.

Reflections

Aueudad's experience underscores the critical role of timely medical intervention and the advantages of seeking specialized care abroad. ClinicSpots was vital in facilitating his treatment, from providing multiple medical opinions to logistical support. Today, Aueudad is on the path to a healthier life, grateful for the expert care received in India and the seamless experience provided by ClinicSpots.
