PATIENT TESTIMONIALS

What Our Patients Say

Read authentic accounts from patients in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, and East Africa who completed successful treatments at Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Institute Delhi.

My mother had advanced ovarian cancer diagnosed in Nairobi, and we were referred to RGCI Delhi for cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC. The gynecological surgical oncology team was exceptional. The medical care here is focused entirely on cancer, so every doctor and nurse knows exactly how to handle patients with compassion. LyfCure secured our Indian Medical Visa within 48 hours and met us at Delhi airport. My mother is now in remission.

I required precision radiotherapy for a brain tumor from Dar es Salaam. At Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Institute, they used CyberKnife robotic radiosurgery. The treatment was painless, did not require open surgery, and I was back at my apartment the same day! The medical expenses were 70% cheaper than private oncology clinics in Europe. The Swahili coordinator assigned by LyfCure made our communication seamless.

My 12-year-old nephew suffered from relapsed lymphoma in Kampala and needed an urgent bone marrow transplant. The BMT team at Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Institute was extraordinary. Their sterile cleanroom isolation suites and continuous nursing vigilance saved his life. LyfCure arranged a lovely serviced apartment near Rohini Sector 5 with a kitchen, which made our 6-week stay safe and affordable.
