From Australia to India: Kelly Elliot Successful Gamma Knife Radiosurgery with Dr. Anil Kumar Kansal

For many patients facing brain tumors or neurological disorders, the thought of brain surgery is terrifying. But thanks to revolutionary medical technologies like Gamma Knife Radiosurgery, patients now have access to precise, non-invasive treatment with minimal recovery time. Kelly Elliot, a patient from Australia, traveled to India in search of world-class care and found it in Dr. Anil Kumar Kansal, one of the best gamma knife surgeons in India, with full support from Dheeraj Bojwani consultants. Kelly Elliot, a 55-year-old accountant from Sydney, Australia, had been dealing with unexplained headaches, dizziness, and occasional loss of balance. 


After months of medical examinations, an MRI revealed a small acoustic neuroma, a benign tumor near the brainstem. While non-cancerous, the tumor’s location posed significant risks and needed to be treated with precision. Australian doctors recommended Gamma Knife radiosurgery in India as the most effective option. However, due to the high cost and long waiting period in Australia, Kelly started looking for international alternatives. His research led him to India — a country known for its medical expertise and affordability. That’s when he came across Dheeraj Bojwani consultants, who connected him with the highly experienced Dr. Anil Kumar Kansal. For Kelly, India offered an opportunity to undergo the procedure promptly, safely, and affordably — without compromising on quality.

 

Kelly reached out to Dheeraj Bojwani Consultants, one of India’s leading medical tourism facilitators. Their support was instrumental in his decision-making and treatment journey. The consultants swiftly connected Kelly with Dr. Anil Kumar Kansal, who is recognized among the best gamma knife surgeons in India. After reviewing Kelly’s scans and history remotely, Dr. Kansal confirmed that he was a perfect candidate for the procedure. 

Dr. Anil Kumar Kansal is a highly respected neurosurgeon with over two decades of experience in treating complex neurological conditions using minimally invasive and radiosurgical techniques. He is currently associated with leading hospitals like BLK-Max Super Speciality Hospital in New Delhi and has performed hundreds of successful Gamma Knife procedures. Kelly describes Dr. Kansal as “incredibly professional, approachable, and highly knowledgeable,” which immediately instilled confidence and trust.

 

Gamma Knife radiosurgery in India is not a knife in the traditional sense — it is an advanced form of radiation therapy that delivers precise, high-dose beams of gamma rays to target and treat brain tumors or lesions without any incision. Kelly’s procedure was scheduled just two days after his arrival in India. After a day of preparation, including head frame fixation and imaging, the treatment itself took less than 90 minutes. Kelly underwent Gamma knife radiosurgery at a leading JCI-accredited hospital in Delhi, under Dr. Kansal’s expert supervision. The procedure was completed smoothly, and Kelly was discharged the same day. Kelly remained in India for just five days in total — enough for the treatment, a brief rest, and a follow-up consultation.

 

Upon returning to Australia, Kelly continued follow-up care with his local neurologist. A 3-month follow-up MRI showed that the tumor had stopped growing and showed signs of regression — exactly as expected with Gamma Knife. His symptoms, including headaches and dizziness, gradually subsided. Kelly now leads a completely normal life, is back to work, and engages in hiking — a passion he had to put on hold due to his condition. “The experience was life-changing,” Kelly says. “I received top-quality care at a fraction of the cost and without the stress of long waits. 

Dr. Kansal and the Dheeraj Bojwani team gave me my life back.” Kelly Elliot’s story stands as a beacon of hope for anyone battling brain tumors or neurological disorders. With cutting-edge technology, world-class surgeons, and affordable care, India has proven to be the ideal destination for advanced treatments like Gamma Knife Radiosurgery. Thanks to the combined expertise of Dr. Anil Kumar Kansal and the efficient coordination by Dheeraj Bojwani Consultants, Kelly’s journey from diagnosis to recovery was seamless, safe, and successful. 


Thank You
