Dr Subhash immediately put me at ease as I requested that he call me Bill rather than William.
I came to India with Lyfboat.com headed up by CEO Dr Surbhi Suden , and as we had literally just met , she also put me at ease , and assured me that I was in the right place.
After the meeting , she said right now Bill 'you look like an old man compared to the Youthful Dr Subhash, however when you get your left hip replacement you will regain your youthful looks!
Dr Surbash said the right hip replacement I had done in Ireland, 12 years previously was an excellent job, however after I pressed him - he very diplomatically said perhaps a little old fashioned.
At this point I gave a full disclosure on my other 'Ailments' _ type 2 diabetes, and the dreaded Mental health disorder 'Bipolar 1'
Dr Subhash was very sympathetic to my situation.
I decided that I didn't want to proceed with any surgery until I felt completely stable - Now thanks to the support of some amazing people, I am more than ready and I have decided to get my full left hip replacement on Thursday 28th March, followed by a revision to my right hip on Thursday 25th April 2024( Provided that Dr Subhash isn't on holiday!).
My experience to date has been fantastic, and Lyfboat.com are a God send.
Shri Jaspal is fantastic, and he organised all my tests - Blood, Xrays, Ultrasounds and a test involving 4 different fluids pumped through my body to check my heart rate, and I'm happy to say I'm as healthy as a Horse!
My first point of Contact with Lyfboat .com was with Dr Suneet Singh, and all I can say is that she is the sweetest, most kind hearted ladies I have ever come to know. It will be a sad day for me on 27th May next when I must fly back home_ I love Ireland as it's people are very warm and Giving, but I also Love India,something tells me that I'll be back!
Finally, the cost back home for both procedures - full replacement and revision - with physiotherapy etc would be €34,700
whereas in India including flights living expenses etc it comes in at €21,650, and you get to spend time in one of the worlds most beautiful Countries full of ,In my experience, the most Heart Warming people.
Warm Regards,
Bill Smith _ Jai Shree RamRead less
