"For almost two weeks, I had excruciating pain in my left leg that walking was very difficult. I had MRI which showed that I needed surgery immediately. Dr Antonio Figueiredo examined me and within 24 hours of the MRI, I had the surgery. 3 hours after surgery, I was able to walk short distance without pain and was discharged next day. A week later, we returned to Canada (over 30 hour journey) and my personal Canadian physician noted that the procedure on me was very well done and service provided would match or exceed one that would be given in Canada. I am extremely grateful to Dr. Antonio and Apollo staff."

“I developed chronic pain in my upper back & both arms from June 2014. By Sept 1st week I started losing energy in my legs & by 3rd week of Sept I lost complete control in both limbs. MRI on 10th Oct revealed extra growth in Cervical spine which turned out to be TB. Under the able guidance of Dr. Antonio Figueiredo I was operated the very next day and I regained motion in both my limbs immediately. From then on I have been on medication & intensive physiotherapy. It is Christmas 2014 now & I can climb a flight of stairs with assistance. I am full of gratitude to Dr. Figueiredo & his wonderful team from Appollo Victor Hospitals, and am very confident of living a normal life again. God Bless all of them.”
