I suffered subarachnoid haemorrhage caused by a ruptured brain aneurysm with some brain damages in March 2023. I almost lost my life, I got 2 brain surgeries, coiled successfully but developed severe delayed cerebral ischaemia resulting in infarctions in both ACA territories and corpus callosum. The fully recovery is a very long journey and difficult, but I am recovering slowly now. Thank God for introducing Dr. Kush to me. He has listening ears with lots of patience even my speaking is slow and unclear due to this subarachnoid haemorrhage stroke. He has been explaining everything to me carefully and keeps encouraging me which can give me more confidence to heal in a better way. He has arranged me numerous scans, tests and adjusted the medicines for me accordingly, so I feel safe to be treated by him. Thank you so much for your help and efforts, Dr. Kush!
