Medanta – The MedicityTreatment
ChemotherapyGrace Wanjiru, a mother of three from Nairobi, was diagnosed with stage II breast cancer earlier this year. Wanting access to advanced treatment protocols and a dedicated oncology team, she reached out to GD Healthcare to explore options in India.
Her case was reviewed by Dr. Ashok Kumar Vaid, a senior medical oncologist at Medanta, who designed a personalized chemotherapy regimen alongside close monitoring for side effects.
Throughout her medical journey, GD Healthcare provided comprehensive assistance, including:
- Reviewing her biopsy and imaging reports before travel
- Scheduling a multidisciplinary tumor board review on arrival
- Arranging extended-stay accommodation for her full treatment cycle
- Coordinating nutrition and counselling support during chemotherapy
- Keeping her family in Nairobi updated after every session
"Dr. Vaid and his team treated me like family, not just a patient. That made all the difference during the hardest months of my life."
Grace has now completed her chemotherapy cycles and returned home to continue follow-up care with her local oncologist, guided by Medanta's treatment summary.
