Frequently asked

Questions we hear most

Is medical treatment in India safe?

Safety depends entirely on the specific hospital and surgeon, not the country. We only work with hospitals holding current JCI or NABH accreditation, verified directly with the accrediting body, and we'll show you that verification before you decide.

How much can I actually save?

Savings vary by procedure, typically 70–85% versus the USA or UK for comparable surgery, once hospital stay and surgeon fees are included. See the Costs page for procedure-specific ranges.

Can a family member travel with me?

Yes. Most patients travel with at least one companion. Accommodation and visa guidance covers companions as part of the same package.

What happens if something goes wrong during recovery?

Your treating hospital and care coordinator remain responsible for follow-up care for 90 days after discharge, with notes shared with your doctor at home.

Still have a question?

Talk to a care coordinator directly, no bot, no queue.
