When baby Janaya’s parents first noticed the abnormal curvature in her right leg, they were filled with concern and uncertainty. Diagnosed with Blount’s Disease—a condition that causes the bones of the lower leg to bow outward—Janaya’s right knee had developed a 45° varus deformity. Her parents, determined to find the best care for their daughter, began their journey from Delta State to Lagos, Nigeria.
After multiple consultations across various hospitals, their search finally brought them to Starcare International Hospital, where they met Dr. Ashraff Mohammad, a skilled orthopedic and spine surgeon. From their very first interaction, Janaya’s family felt something different.
“To me, finding Dr. Ashraff was a stroke of luck—and a miracle,” her father recalls.
“The way Dr. Ashraff welcomed us made it feel like we were part of a family. He assured us with confidence and kindness that our daughter was in the right hands.”
Following initial consultations, the family returned in April for surgery. Dr. Ashraff and the Starcare team performed a complex surgical knee correction, successfully addressing the severe deformity. The results were nothing short of life-changing.
“The moment I met Dr. Ashraff, I knew I was in the right clinic, with the right doctor, and the right team,” Janaya’s mother said.
“Their professionalism was matched only by their compassion. Today, our daughter’s legs are straight, and her smile says it all.”
This powerful testimonial is more than just a success story—it’s a testament to Starcare’s mission: to combine medical excellence with human warmth. For Janaya and her family, it was not just about healing a leg—it was about restoring confidence, mobility, and a brighter future.
“I will recommend Starcare to everyone I meet,” they added with gratitude.
“This hospital is a blessing.”
At Starcare International Hospital, every patient story matters. And for little Janaya, her journey from pain to hope is one we’ll always remember.
