Medical Tourism in India
Travel, stay and local support for patients who come to India for treatment or wellness. We arrange the journey around your hospital schedule: airport pickup, a comfortable stay near the hospital, a local coordinator and support for your family.
Medical Tourism in India Overview
India has large private hospitals and specialist doctors in cities such as Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Chennai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Kolkata. People travel here for heart care, joint replacement, cancer care, eye surgery, dental work, fertility treatment and organ related care, as well as Ayurveda and wellness stays in Kerala and Rishikesh.
IndiaPackage is a travel company. We are not a hospital and we do not give medical advice or promise any medical result. Your doctor and your chosen hospital decide the treatment. We take care of the travel side: visa guidance, flights, airport pickup, hotel or serviced apartment near the hospital, local transport, a translator where needed and a simple plan for your family or attendant.

Tips for Medical Travel to India
- Get the estimate in writing. Ask the hospital for an itemised written estimate and what happens if the plan changes.
- Compare at least two hospitals. Check doctor profiles, accreditation, experience with your condition and patient support.
- Plan extra days. Add a buffer for tests, delays and follow up. Do not book a fixed return flight too early.
- Travel with an attendant. A family member makes recovery easier and is often needed for paperwork and care.
- Keep medicines and reports in hand luggage. Carry prescriptions and a doctor letter for any medicine you bring.
- Ask before you tour. Add sightseeing only after your doctor says it is safe, and keep it light.
This is a likely plan. The tour manager may adjust it for weather, schedules or local rules.
