Introduction

Nigerian national Daisy, aged 19, was visiting Dubai with her parents for a vacation when she decided to undergo a medical health check up because of underlying medical issues.

Daisy experienced 4 seizures in a span of one year. The seizures came in the order of experiencing a bang in the head causing sensory disturbances, dizziness, and shortness of breath. She had also been diagnosed with hormonal imbalance in Nigeria. She got her CT Scan done in her hometown in Nigeria, but no concrete reason could be identified through the reports.

This lead Daisy to search online for options of full-body health checkups where she came across MediGence. She sent her query to MediGence for the full-body checkup via MediGence online enquiry form. She wanted to know which hospital could be the best one where she can go for check up and further advice concerning multiple issues she was facing. The Patient Advisory Team at MediGence took-up Daisy’s query promptly and reverted back to her with the options of some of the best hospitals for health checkup based on the preferences as mentioned by Daisy and as per their travel plans.

After having a thorough discussion on the options of hospitals with the healthcare expert at MediGence, Daisy opted for American Hospital, Dubai. Americal Hospital is one of the best multi-specialty hospitals in Dubai providing quality and trusted healthcare services.

Process

Daisy arrived in Dubai on August 28th, 2019 and reached American Hospital, Dubai right away for her consultation and checkup wherein she got her consultation done with multiple doctors as mentioned below:

• Dr. Tamra Al Dhami, Obstetrics & Gynecology Consultant, Gynecology Clinic
• Dr. Venkata Katreddy, Endocrinologist, Endocrinology and Diabetic Center
• Dr. Achim Mallmann, Neurologist

Post-Treatment

Daisy’s health checkup reports showed that she was borderline Diabetic and was prescribed Metformin for 3 months to bring it under check. She was also advised Multivitamins and Vitamin – D supplements for 3 months. Her MRI report was normal. The doctor explained to her that putting her on medications will not only manage her sugar levels but also the hormonal disturbance.

Daisy was satisfied with her health checkup, recommendations and overall experience at the American Hospital, Dubai and also found her consultation with multiple specialists very helpful.

She particularly appreciated the smooth management of her entire medical checkup journey delivered by MediGence right from providing the best hospital options to coordinate with the hospital on her behalf and helping her plan her medical travel until her return back safely.

Following the completion of her whole body checkup and consultation with the specialists, she returned to her home country Nigeria after spending a week in Dubai.
