3-Year-Old Boy from Cameroon Undergoes Successful Spinal Surgery in India

By Shraddha Singh

A 3-year-old boy from Cameroon undergoes successful treatment for a spinal deformity under the care of Dr. Jayesh Sardhara at S.L. Raheja Hospital, Mumbai.

Patient Name: Bonde Dimalla Ruben Jayden

Age: 3 Years

Gender: Male

Country of Origin: Cameroon

Doctor Name: Dr. Jayesh Sardhara

Hospital Name: S.L. Raheja Hospital, Mumbai

Treatment: Lumbar Laminectomy

Jayden, a 3-year-old boy from Cameroon, was diagnosed with spinal cord compression with a lipoma when he was just 8 months old. He had surgery in Cameroon, but it didn’t work. While looking for better treatment, his family met Vaidam Health during a medical camp in Cameroon, where Indian Neurosurgeon Dr. Jayesh Sardhara was present.

Seeing hope, Bonde’s mother, Mrs. Gaelle, contacted Vaidam Health. The team helped with everything from getting a medical visa, getting a doctor’s appointment, and arranging accommodation.

Bonde and his mother traveled to India, where he was admitted to S.L. Raheja Hospital for surgery with Dr. Jayesh Sardhara. The six-hour surgery went well, and Bonde began to show signs of improvement.

Sharing experience, his mother said, “Vaidam supported us in every step. Even though we didn’t know anyone in India, we felt safe and cared for. They also surprised us with a celebration on my son’s birthday in India. If I could advise someone considering surgery or treatment abroad, I would recommend they go through Vaidam.”

They stayed in India for 40 days for full recovery and check-ups. Now, back in his home country, he is recovering and responding very positively to the treatment.

We at Vaidam Health are proud to have helped Bonde and wish him a happy, healthy life ahead.
