Endoscopic Gastrostomy (PEG) in India
Endoscopic Gastrostomy, commonly known as Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy (PEG), is a minimally invasive procedure to insert a feeding tube directly into the stomach for patients who cannot eat orally due to neurological disorders, head and neck cancers, or other swallowing difficulties.
India offers advanced gastroenterology and endoscopy services, experienced surgeons, and comprehensive post-procedure care for PEG placement.
Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Reconstruction is a surgical procedure to repair or replace a torn ACL, a key ligament that stabilizes the knee joint. ACL injuries are common in athletes and active individuals, and timely reconstruction restores knee stability, prevents further damage, and allows return to sports and daily activities.
India provides advanced ACL reconstruction with orthopedic surgeons, sports medicine specialists, and state-of-the-art arthroscopic facilities.

Patients with difficulty swallowing (dysphagia) due to stroke, neurological disorders, or injury
Head and neck cancer patients unable to maintain oral nutrition
Chronic conditions requiring long-term nutritional support (e.g., ALS, cerebral palsy)
