Hello This is Mr Ibrahim Abba from Cameroon I recently had prostate cancer surgery at Goa in India I was surprised when a routine blood test associated with an annual physical indicated my PSA had jumped to 5 4 but the real shock came later when 3 of 8 sticks in a follow up prostate biopsy were found to contain cancer cells With the help of my local urologist and a host of friends I began the learning process and started considering treatment options for prostate cancer My local urologist suggested the name of Dr Dheeraj Bojwani and the Forerunners Healthcare group of medical value travel in India as the cost of treatment was very high in any of the European countries I did and extensive search on the Forerunners Healthcare group and in so doing I quickly learned of Dr Dheeraj Bojwani s work in medical tourism and read some of the research of Indian urosurgeons It was quickly apparent to me I wanted to make the trip to India at Urology Centers at Goa and see what they had to offer I had my prostate cancer surgery at Goa in India While I must admit I slept through the whole episode the urosurgeon and the support staff performed their magic on me And I was absolutely surprised to learn both my urinary continence and erective functions were normal just two days later Within one month after my surgery I have resumed all my normal routines I had wanted the surgeon with the most experience and the highest success rate I was lucky to find such an urosurgeon a patient caring gifted healer who surpassed all my expectations He has earned my deepest aspect and gratitude and I recommend him and the Forerunners Healthcare group unconditionally for prostate cancer surgery at Goa in India
