  • What happens if something goes wrong?

    What happens if something goes wrong?

    We employ a three tier process to ensure that all goes well, and you receive the treatment you wish.

    STEP 1: We provide comprehensive information to the patients, about the doctors, hospitals and other services.

    STEP 2: Once the patient arrives at the hospital, we inform them about the procedures including pros/cons and the success rates of the procedure.

    STEP 3: Once the patient is content and convinced with all the information she/he is required to sign a consent form which is given by the hospital. If the patient faces language issues in understanding the content, we provide language expert for the same. This form contains all the risk factors along with the patient’s rights.

    But still, if God forgive any, mishap happens, it is thoroughly investigated and if the causes are found to be deliberate or due to negligence on the part of the doctor, then we stand by the patient in the proceedings. Rest assured, we ensure a total transparency.
