Patient Story
I am Maricris Ramirez. I am a stage 2 cervical cancer survivor.
I started experiencing symptoms of heavy bleeding and severe abdominal pain, which made me decide to visit a doctor.
I went to Aster Hospital, where I met Dr. Shivaprakash. After a pap smear and biopsy, I received the life-changing news that I had stage 2 cervical cancer.
Despite my fears, the unwavering support from the nurses, doctors, and my family gave me the strength to keep fighting.
Today, I am proud to say that I am cancer-free. To all the women out there who may have symptoms like mine, I urge you to get checked. There is always hope, and within us, we have a strength we may not even realize.
