    • Jake, Male, 55, UK
      Other Treatments

      I came to see the doctor in WHE and he introduced me to the stem cell treatment. They took the stem cells from my bone marrow and fat and he injected them and it has been fabulous. I don’t have the aches and pains that I used to suffer from on a constant day to day basis. I would highly recommend it to anybody who’s looking for a remedy to their back pain and their aching joints.

    • Sulaiman, Male, 68, Africa
      Other Treatments

      I had a medial right knee compartment surgery at World health expert with the surgical staff. I returned to work 10 days after the surgery. My profession requires me to walking, bending and standing for extended periods of time. I was able to complete my work with little discomfort. The staff and the doctors of WHE went out of their way to complete the arrangements for the surgery on very short notice.

    • Azizi, Male, 44, Swahill, East Africa
      Other Treatments

      I underwent a minimally invasive Maze procedure in World health expert which cured me of atrial fibrillation. I did a tremendous amount of research about the various treatment options and ultimately decided to go with the surgery at World health expert. The experience went very smoothly. WHE continues to have one of the largest and most effective surgical programs in the nation.

    • Abam, 27, Female, Ghana
      Cosmetic Surgery

      My life was going amazing. But when I had a lump in my breast checked out, the diagnosis about knocked the breath out of me. I learned my cancer was Stage 3. I went to the World Health Expert for the treatment. Throughout my cancer journey, they’ve helped me get my attitude right when I’ve gotten down or begun struggling. They’ve been warriors on my behalf. WHE is an amazing place.

    • Fazah, 60, Male, Africa
      Organ Transplants

      World Health Expert became my second family and I will treasure their friendship always. My wife had a call from the hospital that a liver had been procured and I was scheduled for surgery. I cannot begin to thank all of the wonderful members of the WHE. It would not be wrong to say that I was saved by the World Health Expert. You can visit the hospital and leave everything on them.

    • George, 48 years, Male, UK
      Other Treatments

      I traveled to the World Health Expert and met with a medical oncologist who would become my rock throughout my treatment. His recommendation was four rounds of chemotherapy followed by radiation therapy. World Health Expert was a place for healing. The atmosphere there was soothing and compassionate. My doctor, nurses and so many others there became my caregivers.

    • Jacob, 58 years, Male, US
      Other Treatments

      WHE replaced both my hips and the result is nothing short of miraculous. I was back home after surgery in 2 days. Other than a small 3 inch scar, you would never know I had hip surgery. I was free of pain from my first day home. The prescribed physical therapy returned me to full mobility within just a few weeks and allowed me to return to all of my pre-surgery sports and activities.

    • Halisi, 40 years, Female, Kenya
      Weightloss Surgery

      I visited World Health Expert for Metabolic and Weight Loss Surgery. I no longer deal with depression, hypertension or the fear of developing diabetes. I credit the World Health Expert weight Loss Surgery staff with helping me have a successful surgery. Participating in the weight loss surgery support groups was helpful to me both before and after surgery

    • Saarah, 56 years, female, UK
      Heart Surgery

      After my bypass procedure, I didn’t feel a thing. I remember asking the nurse if they had done anything. After a few days of rehabilitation and physical therapy, I’m now back to climbing the stairs to my suite. If you think your heart could use some help, World Health Expert is a great place to turn. The hospital offers advanced diagnostic technology, cardiac rehabilitation, and more.

    • Adhra, 35 years, female, Tanzania
      Other Treatments

      I traveled to WHE who performed a minimally invasive mitral valve repair, making a two-inch incision through my right side and successfully fixing the leak. I was walking on my own the next day and left the hospital just two days later. It was such a positive experience. Everyone from the compassionate nurses and technicians who cared for me, to the welcoming environment.
