Mr. & Mrs. Mulumba: A Story of Compassionate Care


Mr. Jean Pierre Mulumba, a retired pastor, and his wife Mushiya Mimi Mulumba, traveled from the Republic of Congo to BCMCH for medical care. Mr. Mulumba had been suffering from pancreatitis, and his wife had developed high fever.

The Mulumbas arrived at BCMCH on a Friday afternoon. They were greeted by the IPR team, who helped them get settled in their room. Dr. Geomcy and the MS Office staff also provided assistance. Mr. Niyas in operations and the nurses in 6th PVT B took excellent care of the Mulumbas, including buying them new clothes and ensuring that all their needs were met.

On Saturday morning, Mr. Mulumba was seen by Dr. Deepak Johnson, a gastroenterologist at BCMCH. Dr. Johnson diagnosed Mr. Mulumba with cirrhosis liver and gallstones, which were the cause of his pancreatitis. He underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy by Dr. Sujith and team GI surgery.

Mrs. Mulumba was seen by Dr. Jency, a hematologist at BCMCH. Dr. Jency diagnosed Mrs. Mulumba with Falciparum Malaria by peripheral smear. She was treated with antimalarial medication and improved very quickly.

The Mulumbas were very grateful for the compassionate care they received at BCMCH. They said that they felt like they were part of a family during their stay.

BCMCH is proud to provide excellent healthcare to patients from all over the world. We are committed to providing our patients with the best possible care, and we are always happy to help them in any way we can.

The Mulumbas' story is a testament to the compassionate care that is provided at BCMCH. We are proud to be able to help patients from all over the world, and we are committed to providing them with the best possible care.
