My mother had end-stage liver failure and needed an urgent living-donor liver transplant in Nairobi. Gleneagles Global Health City in Chennai came highly recommended.

I required complicated surgery for a pancreatic tumor and biliary obstruction that could not be handled in Dar es Salaam. At Gleneagles Global Health City, the HPB team performed a successful Whipple surgery. The campus is peaceful and green, and the Swahili coordinator assigned by LyfCure was with us at every doctor consultation.

We traveled from Kampala for my brother's living-donor kidney transplant. The transplant protocols and post-operative monitoring at Gleneagles Global Chennai were world-class. Having an affordable serviced apartment with our own kitchen arranged by LyfCure close to the hospital made our 4-week stay completely stress-free.
