Kunal Jangid

Cancer changes your perspective towards life. When my son was diagnosed with cancer at the age of 13, we had lost hope because the internet said it was a rich man’s disease. But talking to Dr. Vinay Vyas of Medipulse, we got to know that affordable cancer treatment in Jodhpur was possible under Bhamashah Scheme. I was happy that my son could have his old life back. The Chemotherapy went on for sometime but the doctors stood with us throughout and took care of my son. The staff at medipulse was also there to meet our needs anytime. Thanks to Medipulse, my son is happy now.
