Name: Ms. Naledi Mokoena (name changed for privacy)

Age: 25 years

Native Country: South Africa

Treatment: Brachymetatarsia Surgery (Toe Lengthening)

Hospital: Fortis Hospital, Shalimar Bagh, New Delhi

Doctor: Dr. Manoj Miglani

Ms. Naledi Mokoena, a 25-year-old woman from South Africa, had been living with brachymetatarsia, a condition that caused one of her toes to remain abnormally short. While not life-threatening, it had deeply affected her confidence and made her hesitant to wear open footwear in social situations. Unfortunately, treatment options in her country were either too costly or unavailable.

After thorough research, she connected with Medsurge India, a trusted medical tourism company, which helped her select the right doctor and hospital in India for treatment at an affordable cost. The team also arranged a video consultation with Dr. Manoj Miglani, a renowned orthopedic and reconstructive surgeon at Fortis Hospital, Shalimar Bagh.

When Naledi arrived in India, the Medsurge India team warmly received her and assisted with accommodation, hospital visits, and local arrangements. The surgery was successfully performed by Dr. Manoj Miglani, who skillfully reconstructed the toe bone and ensured proper alignment.

Within weeks, Naledi noticed a remarkable improvement. Not only was her toe length corrected, but she also regained the confidence to walk freely and wear the footwear of her choice without hesitation.

Expressing her gratitude, Naledi said:
“This surgery has truly changed my life. I am grateful to Dr. Manoj Miglani for his expertise and care, and to Medsurge India for making my journey so smooth. I finally feel confident in my own skin.”

Her story reflects the transformative impact of modern reconstructive surgery and highlights how medical tourism in India continues to change lives. We wish Ms. Naledi a confident, happy, and fulfilling future.
