My Rohaan passed away last night. He fought & conquered with major heart surgery but slipped and fell in grave due to little dehydration.

The baby's parents were facing immense difficulty in procuring a medical visa, possibly owing to the heightened tension across the border between the two nations. Sadiq resorted to Twitter to send out a message to Swaraj as have many before him. Swaraj responded and asked him to approach Indian High Commission in Pakistan and instructed them to expedite the process.

Though the surgery was successfully performed, Rohaan contracted diarrhoea and died on Monday.

Really sad news.
Thank you to Govt of India and Indian doctors who take Pakistanis for medical treatment.
Post operative care is as important as the operation itself.
Hmm good, How much it cost?A patient with 96% liver damage from Pakistan, got treated at Apollo Hospitals Delhi.

Apart from this there are quite a few medical private practices in Pakistan who recommends Indian hospitals and doctors for liver transplant and other services, it is purely run as a business now.
Just as doctors here in Pakistan recommends a so and so Lab for MRI or clinical tests, to get the commissions and benefits....this is actually a very sad state of affairs.
Medical tourism has been turned into an industry and run like a business entrepreneurship in India, no ethics and humanity....all money and business now...and the marketing that entails is unethical and inhuman.
Many naive and unassuming patients are recommended surgeries in India just to get the commissions in Pakistan from their Indian principal like Fortis, or Apollo or Medanta big specialty hospitals in India. Parents doesn't know a thing about such practices and they blindly follow what is recommended to them by doctors here in Pakistan, obviously they are paid by the Indian principals to do that...a fair amount of money.
So all this medical tourism is basically run as a cartel, as a monopoly and kind of a benevolent mafia....nothing short of it.
Indian hospitals charges about 2 million to 3.5 million Pak rupees for such operations, which is quite substantial if you look at the middle class income of Pak people, but the thing is relatives and friends helps in collecting the money in Pakistan...another dark side of such medical practices.
Check this Pakistani website where Pak doctors recommends Indian hospitals...there are many more private doctors in Pakistan who recommend Indian hospitals even if the medical service is available in Pakistan to the gullible and naive patients....so this is the dark and real side of medical tourism in India.
Also articles in media is also used to promote it, DAWN has published many articles about it as paid content...this is a marketing gimmick to show that such an ethical thing is being done in India...which is just an eyewash.
Check this Pakistani website which promotes and recommends Indian doctors and hospitals...not possible without commission and perks. It is an industry and takes away the noble cause associated with the medical profession...sad but now a reality.
