Patient Testimonials

After suffering from severe back and thigh pain due to a degenerated disc, I traveled from Zimbabwe to Manipal Hospital, Delhi, in search of relief. Thanks to Dr. Nikhil Jain’s expertise and the OLIF minimally invasive surgery, I’ve regained my strength and movement — completely pain-free. I am truly grateful for this second chance at life.

Brian Nyamande

I came from Mauritius to India with little hope after being diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. At Manipal Hospital, Delhi, under Dr. Divya Bansal’s care, my health improved — my pain reduced, I began eating again, and gained strength. I’m truly grateful for the care and kindness I received.

Iqbal Heerah

I came from Kathmandu, Nepal fighting a rare disease called PNH and needed a life-saving transplant. With the exceptional care of Dr. Divya Bansal and the team at Manipal Hospitals, my transplant was successful. It’s been over 240 days now, and I feel stronger than ever — truly grateful for the care that saved my life.

Suresh Khatri

We brought our 4-year-old son from Iraq to India, hoping for a miracle. He was suffering from a rare genetic condition called LBRA deficiency. At Manipal Hospital, Delhi, Dr. Sufla Saxena and her team gave us new hope. With Sirolimus treatment and constant care, our little Rawan is now walking, smiling, and getting stronger each day. Our hearts are full of gratitude.

Master Rawan Hardee Hatan

I came from Yemen to Manipal Hospital, Delhi, after years of severe back pain and multiple surgeries. Under the expert care of Dr. Hamza Shaikh, I was diagnosed with Flat Back Syndrome and underwent spine surgery. Today, I’m finally pain-free and living a normal life again. Truly grateful!
