Traveling from Kenya to India for Prostate Artery Embolization: A Successful Outcome

Patient’s Name: Mr. Abdullahi Issack Mahamed

Native Country: Kenya

Treatment: Prostate Artery Embolization

Hospital: Medanta-The Medicity, Gurgaon

Doctor: Dr. Sanjay Saran Baijal

Mr. Abdullahi Issack Mahamed, 58 years old, a resident of Kenya, had long battled the silent burden of an enlarged prostate. He initially ignored the symptoms, such as frequent urination and a feeling of incomplete bladder emptying. However, as the discomfort worsened over time, his concern gradually shifted toward the growing severity of his symptoms.

He began actively seeking medical treatment to address his condition. When exploring advanced treatment options abroad, he came across Medsurge India, a leading medical travel assistance company. One of our dedicated team members connected with him, and after a detailed discussion, we suggested he come to India.

He agreed and visited Medanta-The Medicity, one of the premier hospitals in Gurgaon, India. Our team was by his side from the beginning, supporting him throughout his medical journey.

He consulted Dr. Sanjay Saran Baijal, a well-known Interventional Radiologist with 35+ years of experience. After a thorough evaluation, Dr. Sanjay recommended that he needs to undergo Prostate Artery Embolization, a minimally invasive procedure that reduces blood flow to the enlarged prostate.

After undergoing a series of essential diagnostic tests, the procedure was successfully performed at Medanta Hospital. The procedure was carried out under local anesthesia for quicker recovery with minimal discomfort.

Mr. Abdullahi expressed his deep satisfaction with the expert guidance and seamless support provided by both Medsurge India and Medanta Hospital.

“I really appreciate the team work and they handled my situation in a very professional manner. I am thankful to the Medsurge team and Medanta Hospital.” – said Mr. Abdullahi

Our best wishes for his full recovery and continued good health.
