What Our Patients Say

Read authentic accounts from patients in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, and East Africa who completed successful treatments at Narayana Institute of Cardiac Sciences Bangalore.

My two-year-old daughter was born with a complex ventricular septal defect in Nairobi, and local doctors told us open-heart surgery was urgent. We traveled to Narayana Health City to see Dr. Devi Shetty's pediatric heart team. The care and surgical perfection were beyond words. LyfCure arranged our visa in 24 hours and picked us up at Bangalore airport. Today my baby is laughing and healthy!

I was diagnosed with triple vessel coronary disease in Dar es Salaam and needed bypass surgery. The surgical costs in South Africa were out of my reach. At Narayana Cardiac Sciences, I received top-quality quadruple bypass surgery for less than a third of the cost. The Swahili coordinator guided us through every step.
