Bengaluru: Aster RV Hospital proudly highlights the inspiring recovery journey of a 63-year-old international stroke patient who overcame significant hurdles, including treatment abroad, a challenging long-distance flight, and rigorous rehabilitation, to regain his independence and health.
The patient suffered a stroke while on an international trip and was immediately rushed to a hospital in Zurich, Switzerland, where he received timely treatment within the golden hour. Despite the swift medical intervention, the stroke left him partially paralyzed on the right side and with vision difficulties (parallax). During his recovery in Switzerland, he was administered medications and initiated on physiotherapy in the ICU. Following the mandatory 14-day no-travel period for stroke patients, he was cleared to fly back to India under the specialized care of Emirates airline staff.
Upon landing, the patient was transported directly from the airport to Aster RV Hospital in Bengaluru via the hospital’s dedicated ambulance service. Here, the patient’s comprehensive treatment journey continued with an individualized rehabilitation plan involving speech therapy and physiotherapy.

Dr. Loganathan Venkatachalam, Consultant – Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation, Aster RV Hospital added:
“When he came to us, his right-side mobility was severely limited, and he faced significant challenges in performing daily activities.

“I am immensely thankful to Aster RV Hospital for the exceptional care I received. From the moment I landed in Bengaluru, the hospital staff ensured my comfort and well-being. The doctors, therapists, and entire team treated me with compassion and professionalism, giving me hope and strength to recover.
