Going all the way to India was a big decision for me and I had finally decided to go to India after talking to IndiaCarez and exchanging a series of mails with them.I really couldn’t be happier about the outcome of my Sleeve Gastrectomys surgery. It really did save my life and has made me more confident. This surgery saved me from joint pains caused due to carrying the extra weight of my body. The hospital was top class, very clean and the staff was very helpful. My surgeon who previously worked in UK is simply superb. I thank IndiaCarez for giving me a new life.
