Cathy Gomes, England
Weight Loss Surgery
My name is Cathy Gomes and back in 2006 I weighed more than 300 pounds. I was a very large woman who felt uncomfortable with herself and her surroundings. My doctor always warned me about the harmful effects that obesity can be to me and suggested bariatric to get rid of the extra pounds and actually recommended that I look into this procedure.
I contacted Indicure and each step was explained in great detail. They all made me feel comfortable while I was considering this procedure. And within 3 weeks I was in India getting my surgery. I followed the program exactly as instructed. I was often teased for being so perfect, but I didn’t care because the weight came off quickly for me and I was excited and even further motivated by my success. I knew I had to begin retraining myself to eat healthier and to begin living a healthier lifestyle. On the other hand, I was depressed. I knew I would have to find a way to cope with the food commercials on television and with my roommate’s frequent visits to the local fast food restaurants.
The junk food still looked good, and I hadn’t yet developed any alternative activities or mechanisms to deal with the former obsession. That’s when I started exercising. I found that the exercise actually helped to take my mind off food and gave me time to think about where I had come from and where I would like to see myself three to six months down the road.
In fairly short order I learned to eat healthy foods six to eight times a day and to exercise five times a week. What a change this was for me. I started out walking short distances and worked up to walking three miles at a time. I have never felt as good in my life as I do today. In just 18 months I have lost more than 150 pounds and have maintained this weight loss still today. This has been an awesome and rewarding experience.
I deeply thank Indicure for giving me the opportunity to experience life, as I had never been able to do before. |

Margaret, Canada
Weight Loss Surgery
My name is Margaret and this is how I changed my life with the gastric bypass. I was over weight and miserable for years. After trying various liquid diet programs, weight loss shots, pills, and packaged diet food plans, I was finally at the end of my rope. I could no longer fit into Movie Theater seats, I could no longer shop for normal size clothing, I had avoided all family functions, and I would always have an excuse to never to go out with relatives or friends.
I started to develop physical problems from being so over weight. No matter what I tried I just could not keep the weight off. I did some research and decided to go through with weight loss procedure. I started looking for cost effective options and zeroed down to going to India. But which surgeon, which hospital, even there are so many consultants and medical tourism companies. Which one to choose?
But only after a couple of interactions with a few companies, it wasn’t difficult to pick the most professional among them- Indicure was undoubtedly the best. They answered all my queries up to my satisfaction and very promptly.
My surgery date was on Jan 20th, 2007. My pre-surgery weight was 260 pounds. To those of you who think this was the easy way out for me need to think again. After surgery, you do not diet. You have to change the way you think and eat for the rest of your life. This is a lifetime endeavor and it will not be over in just 6 months or so. I had eaten healthy and exercised every day since surgery. In 11 months, I had lost 130 pounds and I went from the big lady store to Nordstrom’s.
This surgery has strengthened my self-esteem. I am proud of my success and I can't thank Indicure and the support group meetings enough for helping me focus on the important things in my life. I continued with the same program of eating well and watching my weight.
I now feel I firmly have control over my weight. “I WISHED FOR IT, I DREAMED FOR IT, AND THANKS TO INDICURE, I AM LIVING IT.”

Anna Conway, Ireland
Weight Loss Surgery
I was recently contacted by Indicure to send an old and latest picture of mine, one before and one after the surgery, and my experiences with the dieting and life after weight loss surgery. If anything I have experienced can help someone else that will be a thrill in it self.
As I look through the pictures in my photo diary, I run a gamut of emotions of shame of how I use to look and the excitement of actually enjoying having my photo taken now. I had less than a half dozen pictures to choose from for my “before” picture as I never wanted my photo taken.
When I decided to undergo Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Band surgery, I had reached a point where my weight was influencing just about every aspect of my life. Although I was not obese my entire life I did struggle daily with my obsession with food and body image.
Amassing an array of weight related disorders high blood pressure, sleep apnea, asthma, shortness of breath, and water retention, my physician suggested I get the bariatric surgery done. I knew very little about weight loss surgery but I was so desperate to change I would have tried anything. I contacted Indicure and was convinced that they were the best to help with my problem. I underwent Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Band surgery in India.
I cannot say it was a smooth ride. The food withdrawal during the first 6 mos., especially the first 6 weeks was brutal. I did not adhere to the rules at first. I cheated, I pushed it, I vomited and finally, I learned. Not overnight, not even in six months. It took a year for me to realize when you are full you are full.
The weight loss was continuous. Not fast, but constant. Obviously, besides the physical changes there were mental and emotional ones to deal with also. As much as I “prepared” myself for the changes that would occur with my weight loss I could not help but be amazed at other peoples’ reactions.
Overall, I am very blessed to have had this opportunity. If I did not have this surgery my life would be limited if I had a life at all. My medical disorders have cleared up. I can now do things that I always wanted to do. Last year I coached my daughter in softball. How exciting it is to do active things with her and try to set a better, healthier example by doing and not telling. I can shop anywhere. I can wear any style. I can sit in a movie theatre and airplane seat comfortably. I don’t worry about breaking other people’s furniture when I sit down. I like my body, my life and most of all I like myself. |

Lasik Laser
I came across Indicure while searching on the internet. Their website is extremely professional and must say very impressive. I found that all of my questions about LASIK and the procedures were answered in detail and with description. After making first contact with them I found that any questions I had were answered quickly and in-depth by Shweta.
Making a decision to have this surgery in India was made easy. The difference in price was also an important factor. The same procedure in US was going to cost me many folds. On arrival at the centre I was impressed with the Doctors, equipment and the amazing warmth from the staff.
I felt more of a guest than a patient. My visit to India; the sightseeing and cultural experiences were shaped by the people from Indicure and I can not express my thanks and appreciation to everyone involved for making everything so unbelievably easy for me.
Thanks!

The experience I had with Indicure has truly been excellent .The lasik surgery is quick and simple and around 30 minutes after surgery I could see everything clearly.
I would definitely recommend this treatment to all my family and friends.
The quality here is much better than in U.K. The cost definitely is incomparable.
Thanks everyone at Indicure. |

Tummy Tuck and Breast reduction
I came across Indicure on Internet and, because I had been thinking about getting a tummy tuck and breast reduction surgery, checked out the company on the web. Indicure is truly an amazing company, thorough professionals in their work. They answered all my questions very promptly and up to my satisfaction. It is now two months later and I am just recently back from India after having a wonderful vacation and receiving a great "new look."
The plastic surgeon has the highest credentials and performed a fine job with kindness and concern for my safety and comfort. Indicure made sure I had good accommodations, a good personal driver and even someone to look in on me following surgery.
Following my three day stay in the hospital, I continued my recuperation at a good hotel for four nights and then moved again to a resort hotel right on the beach for five days before flying back home.
While one might think because the cost of living is so much lower than in Las Vegas., that the standards are too, but this is not so at all. The hotels were fine and equivalent to what you would find at a nice hotel here, but at a fraction of the cost. The people of India are the friendliest people I have ever met and I felt as safe there as I ever have anywhere. For me, a real bonus was that so many speak English! That makes everything so easy! India is a long way to go, but I don't have any regrets about going there for my surgery. I got to see a country I have never seen before, meet some wonderful people and have a great cosmetic surgery that I could not have afforded here in the USA. |

I am thankful to Indicure for the exceptional service, care and attention I received from you.
I personally am meticulous about the way my hair looks, but it is more demanding when your profession warrants that you look good.
I had been looking for answers for quite some time when I came across Indicure. My decision making process was made easy by the following facts: all of my questions regarding you, your procedures, and my options were answered honestly and directly, I was never pressured into making a decision or appointment, and finally, when we met for an evaluation, you and the doctor first took the time to understand what was most important to me, then suggested a course of action to achieve the results we discussed.
Upon seeing the work performed, I was instantly impressed by the care and detail of the graft placement. More importantly, the doctor did exactly what he said he would regarding density in certain areas, creating a natural looking flow in the crown, and helping me create a natural looking hairline zone. I can tell when my hair grows in, it will blend perfectly.
From initial contact, to post-op follow up, Indicure has made an uncomfortable situation for me not only comfortable, but I'm actually excited about the results. I will certainly recommend (and in fact, already have recommended) your services to friends and acquaintances.
Thanks

I would just like to thank all the staff at Indicure. Not only are you true professionals but you are some of the most compassionate and caring people I have ever met. I appreciate all you have done for me.
From the second I sent an enquiry I was explained everything clearly and honestly. There was no ambiguity or mincing of words.
I am completely satisfied with my hair transplant and face lift results.
Again, many thanks and all the best wishes. |

India has always fascinated me. I always wanted to go and see the land of “Unity and Diversity”. Ayurveda and Yoga is what I have been wanted to experience for so many years. When I started searching on the internet, I came to know about low cost of medical treatment, which definitely came as a bonus.
I am just under 30 and I had a permanent scowl between my brows. Even when I was relaxing there was a deep crease. It added many years to my appearance. I was wary about getting Botox, like many people, but it seemed to be the best and safest way to remove years from my face.
I wrote to Indicure. They happily arranged my trip to India, the yoga classes and Ayurveda rejuvenation and the cosmetic treatment for my scowls.
I must say they are very professional. They explained the procedure in detail. I got exactly the results I had hoped for. I received only 2 botox treatments when I was there and now, the scowl I had hated for so long is gone.
And believe you me, what I heard is so very true about India. Every state has different culture, eating habits, language, yet they are united. It is truly a magnificent country. I would definitely want to come back to India and surely through Indicure.
Thanks Indicure for everything. |

I come from a middle class family and like every women wanted to have a good looking face and body which is attractive. Unfortunately was not born that way and always wanted to get the cosmetic makeover done.
My skin had a lot of blemishes and the acne marks. On top of it, I noticed a few wrinkle around my eyes a few months back.
The bulging tummy, the small breast size and now the wrinkles, I was loosing my self confidence. I enquired about the procedures at various places in UK. Of course, they were good, but the cost was beyond my reach.
I spoke to my friend about it, when she suggested me so casually- Why don’t you go to India. You can surely afford the cosmetic make over there. I thought she was crazy. But then there was no harm in searching the internet.
The net is so flooded with Medical tourism happening in India. I was not alone, who wants the best at low cost. There were so many like me.
I immediately contacted a lot of medical tourism companies and wrote to them about my requirements. A couple of them replied, but I must admit that Indicure was the most impressive. They replied to my every mail in a very professional manner. Not only that, Shweta gave me a lot of options, I was never forced to choose any thing. She was extremely courteous and helpful.
I booked my tickets and there I was in India. I was picked up at the airport by one of the staff member of Indicure. Was taken for the consultation with the doctor and was explained everything in great detail. All my queries were clearly and properly answered by the surgeon.
I got all that I wanted to get done- face treatment, breast augmentation, tummy tuck. I am now back to UK and the results are amazing.
I have got my confidence back and what I was wanting for so many years.
Thanks a ton to Indicure. I will always be indebted to them for what they gave me and how they treated me while I was in India. |

A simple thank you is not enough for the wonderful care your cosmetic consultant has provided throughout the procedure. He is a rare and valuable individual, a true artist of the human body.
We are happy that we arranged it through Indicure. From the calls to the consultation, to the surgery to the follow-ups, every single person of Indicure has been a complete pleasure to work with.
I am thankful to entire staff of Indicure for their amazing help all throughout. |

Having been home a few days now I can get my thoughts together and give my heartfelt thanks for all the help and encouragement I got from Indicure. Obviously there was a certain amount of trepidation going to what has a reputation of being a third world country for a major operation like cosmetic makeover, having received the type of treatment which I would think only the Royal family would receive in this country I wonder which is the third world country. From the organization arranged by your good self to absolutely first class attention at the hospital and the service of doctors and his wonderful team all of whom spoke English, the nursing was one to one and my well being was their only concern.
The operation has been a complete success. I am so happy with the results. The friendliness from everyone from consultant to ancillary workers was amazing. |

Face lift
It has been nearly a month since my facelift, and I feel beautiful! I can hardly stop looking at myself in the mirror. My friends and family are amazed by how healthy and natural I look.
The surgery was a breeze.The case managers at Indicure were great during my time of mind numbing fear. Right from the very first phone call when i was researching for this facelift surgery, I felt that you they have been able to answer my questions and understood my concerns.
I was treated with the greatest of care and professionalism by the entire staff. The whole medical staff and the staff of Indicure made me feel very comfortable about the surgery.
I am extremely pleased with the outcome and cannot thank you enough for the wonderful job done! Choosing Indicure for my treatment in India was the best decision I could have made.
