I am Tony Singer from USA and I came for my sleeve gastrectomy in India through
Forerunners Healthcare Consultants. I have been fat all my adult life. I do have health
problems but mainly I over eat. I had a very uneasy relationship with food always
viewing it as an enemy that I had not bested in thirty years. I had thought about surgery to
help with my obesity at odd times over the past few years but never gone any further than
that. I had a appointment with my doctor practice nurse after having a series of test,
coupled with my deep unhappiness at how I felt and looked. Things had to change. Then
I decided to undergo sleeve gastrectomy. Once this decision had been made I set about
changing my diet immediately while I looked to find a company that I felt confident in. I
read widely on the internet to settle on the exact procedure I felt I should go for and after
talking to providers who did their operations in India, Belgium and Czech Republic
picked Cosmetic Bliss.

The support from Forerunners Healthcare Consultants me through every stage with ease.
Still, when I left for India to have the operation I was very nervous and questioned myself
as to whether I was doing the right thing. When I arrived at Mumbai India on the
arranged flight. I and another lady having the same operation were met at the airport and
taken to our hotel for the first night. The hotel was efficient and clean and the following
morning our taxi arrived to take us bright and early to the clinic for tests and to meet the
surgeon associated to Forerunners Healthcare Consultants.

Dr Dheeraj Bojwani is a very nice man who throughout my stay showed me nothing
other than professional, compassionate and first class care answering any questions that
were put to him and making every effort to ensure I understood what was happening at
every step of the way. The hospital looks a little dated on the outside but once into the
ward areas they are new, clean and pleasant with rooms that hold two or three people at a
time and each with its own bathroom containing a large shower, toilet and hand basin, all
kept scrupulously clean. The nurses had varying degrees of fluency in English but at no
point did I feel worried because of any potential misunderstandings. One thing the
hospital does have in common with our English hospitals is the time you are woken in the
morning, yes- you guessed it- 6am! I don't know really what to say about the Sleeve
gastrectomy in India itself. I felt uncomfortable and sick the day of the operation, but
was walking around the next day and all drains where out by Thursday night, two days
after the operation, everyone reacts differently to medical procedures and pain. I think the
best way to sum it up is say that all I needed to make me as comfortable as possible was
done. Forerunners Healthcare Consultants have kept in touch so that I have no worries
over anything that happens post operation.

It's what has happened since my return home that has been the biggest revelation to me.
Over the past three decades I have always felt hungry on my seemingly permanent diet
and really never got anywhere. Now after following the strict diet for the first few weeks
after the procedure I find I can have a meal of say two sprouts, half a carrot and a
tablespoon full of Mushrooms (I'm a vegetarian before any meat eaters start to worry)
