Initially I was very hesitant what to do, where to go for the treatment of my father who was suffering with prostate cancer. Thanks to google, I came into touch with Gaf Healthcare. They have arranged everything, starting from treatment plan, video consultation, airport pickup, to surgery and following up. My father was operated in Sahyadri Pune, robotic prostatectomy was done. Now he is fine.
