Dear Forum,
I have decided on a Stem Cell clinic to treat my kidney condition in India. It is Chaitanya Stem Therapy Center in Pune India. Dr. Anant Bagul is a respected doctor in the field, and has developed a treatment using three doses of both bone marrow and cord blood stem cells over a 25 day period. He has been obtaining very good results, and the price is only $12,000 for non nationals.

In order to obtain an Indian Visa, however, I have just learned that a letter of recommendation from a US doctor is required. I do not think my primary care physician is going to be receptive to the idea of referring me for a non-FDA approved procedure in India. I have sent a request; we will see. I thought I would post this, however, to see if anyone has dealt with this, and if there was a way to obtain such a letter? Perhaps I can reapply for a tourist visa instead of medical?
Thank you!
Sincerely,
Mike
