Thanks to all of you wonderful people at Ganga Hospital for having me! This Traveling Spine Fellowship has broadened my horizon significantly. Not just medically speaking, but also culturally. I am thankful having had the opportunity to experience Coimbatore, the Indian traffic, Tamil Nadu’s culture, and the great (spicy) south Indian food.

Visiting a nearby tea plantation I have learned what makes a great Indian tea. It’s not just simply the tea leafs, but more so the knowledge when to harvest, how to process the tea, and finally selling it for an affordable price, so that people can enjoy it most. Ganga Hospital is like an elegant “Indian tea”, rich in flavor and exported into every corner of the world. To me Ganga Hospital has just the right “taste”, created by the perfect blend of good clinical work, academics, research, and social work. Want it all? Come to Ganga’s Spine Surgery Unit and have a sip yourself.
