First Japanese medical tourist has knee arthroscopies and cosmetic surgery in India

A 28 year old Alsakan School teacher settled in Japan, has undergone bilateral Knee surgery and Cosmetic surgery in Chennai by www.kneeindia.com's orthopedic surgeon Dr.A.K.Venkatachalam and DR.T,C Chandran, a renowned Plastic surgeon over here.
WR, is a martial arts instructor and developed bilateral knee problems on the undersurface of his knee cap. The risk factors were that he was obese earlier and this had put a lot of pressure on his knees. When he reduced his weight, there was extra skin in his abdomen.
In a six hour long surgery, both the knees were treated by arthroscopic surgery and the reduntant abdominal skin was trimmed to give him a new look which he will be proud to display to his mates back home.
He is recovering well and will be discharged in 3- 4 days from hospital and wil be fit to travel to America.
